Providing 13,000 BTU's of cooling power, this energy-efficient air conditioner features "no drip" technology, which is an exclusive process that uses condensation and collected moisture to help cool the air, discharging excess vapor through the exhaust hose. The unit is designed with a 24-hour programmable timer and convenient bypass function, as well as an easy-to-use control panel that incorporates an "on/off" switch and two fan speeds. Its built-in dehumidifier is ideal for basements, garages, or wherever there's excess water in the air, removing up to 88-3/4 pints of moisture per day. Its adjustable thermostat can be set to accommodate individual preferences, and unlike central air, the portable air conditioner easily cools specifically where it's needed most. Its high-efficiency compressor and components provide quiet operation, and due to an automatic safety device, the rotary compressor is protected when the unit is switched on immediately after being switched off. Side carrying handles and durable caster wheels make this unit conveniently portable, while the easy-to-connect hose between the indoor and outdoor unit allows for fast installation. Other features include an extra-large professional castor kit, a built-in Freshzone air filtration system, and a window/door bracket for simple installation and exhausting of hot air. Designed and engineered in Italy, this portable air conditioner measures 16-1/7 by 22 by 28-3/4 inches indoor and 10-1/4 by 18-8/9 by 22-4/9 inches outdoor.

Built-in dehumidifier removes up to 88.77 pints of moisture a day. 13,000 BTU's
