Energy Saving Guide
Read and follow the guide below to get the best performance and
efficiency from your portable air conditioner:
 Do not cover the air outlet (exhaust) while in use.
 Do not place the unit in front of curtains or drapes- to ensure
they do not obstruct the air intake.
 Minimize the length of the exhaust hose.
 Make sure the exhaust hose is as straight as possible and avoid
kinks or bends.
 Keep curtains, blinds or drapes closed during the sunniest part
of the day.
 Use the timer to operate the unit before it is needed. For
example, set the timer to turn on the unit in cooling mode for 3
or more hours to cool the room before you arrive. You may want
to operate the unit all day if you live in a warmer climate.
 Minimize the heat sources (direct sunlight, computers, servers,
people, etc.) in the room.
 Close all windows and doors.
 Use the unit in a contained room. For example, a room with four
walls and a ceiling, instead of a partitioned studio, or
warehouse.
 Make sure the unit is on a level surface.
 Minimize the amount of humidity in the room. For example, run
the unit as a dehumidifier.
 To prolong the compressor's life, please wait at least 3 minutes
before turning the unit back on after shutting it off.
 Inspect and keep the pre-filters clean by cleaning regularly.
 Inspect and replace the activated carbon filters regularly.
 Perform
routine maintenance.
