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 the unit is in use.
Do not place the unit in front of curtains or drapes to ensure that the air intake is not obstructed.
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, use the unit in 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 clean the pre-filters regularly.
Perform routine maintenance.
Warning: Never operate the unit without the filter.
