I am interested in getting a 12 000 BTU portable unit with one hole for exit air and no water drain.
Nobody seems to know here that they exist. In usa they have been around for a few years...1 outlet design...
Has anyone seem a store.....thanks
Even the window units have a tube that drops outside the window. Are you talking about a portable that needs a flexible exhaust vent out a window?I haven't seen one down here, but I know they exist. The problem with the ones I've seen is that they work by collecting the water coming off the evaporator coil in a tank. In a humid climate like here, it has to be emptied frequently.

Another problem with these indoor units is that they run on 120V. Not a very efficient way to cool your unit.
That's certainly true. Portable ACs are not intended to cool open spaces. The best option is central air, then a ductless split, then a window shaker and finally a portable unit. If you wish to move a piano, you wouldn't choose a Cooper Mini as your transportation vehicle. A portable AC is intended for someone who cannot utilize one of the better solutions and intends to cool a space that can be closed off like a bedroom or a home office.

And make sure you have quality outlet sockets. These high energy appliances consume a lot of current. IF the plug or socket is bad, it will overheat, melt and possibly catch fire.
I'm not a huge fan of portable AC units. 12,000btu must be a hell of a machine.
Greetings. I have one of these that I purchased two years ago at Pricemart.
