Portable Air Conditioners
It takes only 5 minutes and a few quick easy steps to fully set up a portable air conditioner. No permanent installation necessary and all parts are included.
No. The unit is equipped with one 4-foot extension hose. If you add additional hoses the compressor will shut down from backpressure, causing warm air.
No. The unit should stay upright so the oil from the compressor does not flow out. The compressor will then burn out when the unit is turned on.
Yes. Portable air conditioners can be operated independently, so it's easier to target cool air specifically where you want it. And since the cooling source is local, loss of cool air is minimized. This type of “zone cooling” can help save energy and provide customized comfort in the home.
Yes. Apartments or buildings that do not allow or cannot support window-type units, conference rooms, laboratories, computer rooms, converted spaces where duct work does not exist, dark rooms, bedrooms, living rooms, sun rooms, restaurants and many other applications…Pinguino goes where you go, for convenient and efficient cooling virtually anywhere.
Airflow produced by portable air conditioners must be clean, creating a healthier living environment. Portable air conditioners are often placed in dusty areas of the home or office. Air filters are also designed to prevent damage to the machine. By maintaining the internal components of the units and keeping the airflow clean, this makes the unit more efficient and therefore consumes less energy.
Yes. The filter is washable and reusable.
The warranty is 1 year on all parts and labor. There is an additional 4-year warranty on any part of the sealed system (compressor, evaporator, condenser, factory-connected refrigerant tubing). The additional 4-year warranty covers the sealed parts only. Labor is not included.
Condensation, a by-product of the air conditioning process, is used to enhance the cooling cycle. Any excess vapor is then discharged through the exhaust hose. This process is exclusive to De'Longhi portable air conditioners. All other portable air conditioners require a condensation collection bucket that has to be manually emptied every 6 hours.
The unit could be taking on too much water. At the back of the unit in the bottom left corner there is a rubber tube. Open the tube and drain the water. Press the reset button and start the unit. The unit will run for about 15 minutes before the compressor kicks in. If the unit still does not cool, take it to an authorized service center.
The most common window types supported by a portable air conditioner are double hung, sliding and casement windows. The unit can also be installed semi-permanently through a professionally constructed hole in the wall.
Yes. All portable air conditioners must vent the hot air through a window.
The eco-friendly refrigerant R410A gas contains zero ODP (ozone depletion potential) and is also denser, allowing for more compact components and units. R410A is also a more-efficient refrigerant that allows for better energy-saving technology.
Portable air conditioners cool your room by removing hot air and exhausting it out a window. Wheels allows the unit to be easily moved from one window to another.
