Fully Self-Evaporative Design
This portable air conditioner and heater is designed to automatically exhaust all collected moisture out the hose while cooling. This makes for hassle-free operation and limits how often you'll have to empty its internal pan. In extremely humid conditions, you may want to consider attaching a drain hose for continuous draining.
Cleans Air As it Cools
In addition to cooling, heating, and dehumidifying, this self-evaporative AC also removes impurities from your space. A Silvershield pre-filter catches large particles like pet dander and dust, while a 3M filter traps odors and other particles. This ensures the air coming out of this AC is cleaner than the air entering it. Wash the pre-filter as needed, and replace the 3M filter every 3 months.
