Easy to install and doesn’t take up a whole lot of space. Keeps my apartment ice cold in the summer.Also cuts the power bill in half compared to running the in house unit.
Extremely helpful! Quick question,is it okay if I clean the coil and fins using can of compressed air i.e. air conditioner cleaner? And as per instruction on the product, it just need to be sprayed onto the condenser, left for 2 mins before turning on the AC for at least 15 mins to let the dust flow through the exhaust. However this instructions is for wall mounted ac. So is it safe to use this for portable air cons? Please advise, thank you! 😁
Thanks for watching neighbor. I heard people say we have accents but I can’t hear it. Lol. Greetings from the north. Please like and subscribe to help support my Canadian dream. Take care
This was very helpful. It's so hard to find videos on Portable AC Maintenance. Quick question, my AC fills up a bucket of water everyday. It's actually pretty crazy. It's a self-evaporating ac, but after about 1.5 years of use, it progressively got worse. I can't set up a continuous drain because there's no drain hole in my room, so it's elevated and draining into a bucket. Besides the coils / fins, what else would require cleaning to fix this? Vacuuming the actual copper line or using something like a "Gallo Drain Gun" / compressed air?
@AaronMetallion the cleaning is only on the fins. No other cleaning will affect the water buildup. After you clean the fins you will experience more water because the dirt and dust that you cleaned off used to absorb a lot of the moisture so now that it is clean it will flow more. Also how cold do you run your ac? Running it a couple degrees warmer should not be noticeable in the way of comfort, but it may greatly reduce the water output as the condenser is running less when you run it warmer. Hope this helps.

Same here. Did a bit of research and concluded that the water pump is broken or else the water tank is far too small to handle July-August humidity. Unit shuts off and red water light comes on after approx. 20 minutes. Guy at the hardware store told me that amount of water is totally normal for our climate/humidity and it's gonna release water constantly. He cut off some tiny sections of hose for me to try and I went back and bought 3 metres of PERFECT FIT plus a metal clamp. It's pretty ugly, takes up a lot of space with a big plastic garden table in my room but it works! Bonus: soon afterwards noticed big clumps of what looked like mould being released into the bucket so letting the unit run at full capacity and free drainage cleaned it out a lot.
Oh my. Thanks a million. I live alone and this is so helpful when its a challenge to find a ac tech.❤❤❤. My ac keeps working and shutof off for a minute and then picking up itself again. Plus its beginning to smell. So i thinj its the coils that need cleaning cause i usually clean the filter
Yes that could be the issue. Too much air restriction may overload the motor. Hopefully cleaning the coils fixed your issue. Thanks for watching. Please like and subscribe
There is no tank. They just have a tray under each coil set. Cleaning the coils with coil safe cleaner will allow the chemical to drip to the tray and thus clean the tray as well. Thanks for watching. Please like and subscribe
I didn’t even know you were supposed to drain these units, I thought that was only for the Dehumidifier mode. I just checked the drains on my unit and nothing came out and I’ve had it for a few years. Does that mean I’ll need to try and drain it more often after applying this chemical?
Yes. If the. Coils are dirty then the dirt will absorb the moisture. Once you clean the coils the moisture will flow properly off into the tray. It also depends on your unit. I have one in my room that collects an inch of water in a bucket every night. But the one in my daughters room doesn’t collect any water. Both are cleaned regularly hope this helps.

Most newer portable ACs are self evaporating now and rarely need to be drained in cooling mode unless you live in a climate where it is damp/humid all the time.
Are these portable AC units prone to growing mold inside of them? I honestly had no clue you was supposed to clean them. And I’ve had it for years never cleaned the inside of it lmaoo. Gonna buy some of the coil cleaner spray and vacuum and clean it out real soon lol
Yes they often grow mold on them because of the dust collection followed by moisture. The fins are a perfect breeding ground. Glad you found the video. Thanks for watching. Please like and subscribe
@@BillOfAllTrades2016 I appreicate you for responding, I cleaned mine out and inside there was Styrofoam over the fan blower whatever it is and the inside was full of black mold... crazy i been breathing that in while i slept for years... but cleaned it out with bleach and vacummed the coils etc. will be making a routine and cleaning it for now on. how often do you clean yours?
There are two screws at the bottom front panel of my unit and slide lock clips. Sharing to help others avoid frustration. Additionally mine had been used and all the gunk was really moist so I broke it up with the brush and wiped it away.
Hi , I have an LG and the compressor doesn’t stay on. I called an LG repair man and he said I should just replace the unit. Do you think he’s correct? Or do you think it can be the coils that need to be cleaned. Thank you in advance.

Mine doesn’t have that large snail shaped thing at the bottom when I take the back off-also; my front has to be taken off with ALOT more trouble. Is it safe to just pour water down the back coils like that? What if it gets into the electronics?
The snail shaped thing is the blower motor. Every unit is different and some have different shapes for the motors that are also in different locations. And yes it’s safe to pour water on the coils. It will not harm the electronics. The coils gather moisture as it is running which is why it gets so dirty. Some units are easier to take apart than others.

I have 2 mobile units, one with a hose and one with a split unit. The latter makes less noise and cools way better. I was lucky to bu a good used one on the cheap. There are also other monoblock units, they are better and quiter as the mobile ones with a hose. But you have to be able to make 2 holes in your wall. It also helps to keep your house cool, so close all windows, doors before it gets hot and close the blinds. Or better use a sun screen or those films or foils you can put on your windows. Those heat reflecting films works well if you buy the right one. I have to cool less because of it
Thanks, your video is really helpful! I have only ever vacuumed it so I’m hoping that cleaning the coils will give it new life. At the end of last summer, it was not blowing as cool and smelled like baby powder. Do I need to wait for it to dry before I run it?
AC worked fine but coils needed to be cleaned. Cleaned coils with coil safe and now my AC won't stop spitting out liquid. I thought maybe it was the coil safe but it's been almost a whole day since I used it and the water tray is filling up insanely fast. Any ideas? Think the coil safe got onto something it shouldn't have?
After you clean the coils it’s normal to fill up the tray much faster because when the coils are dirty, all the dirt and dust collects most of the moisture whereas when you clean the coils, there is no dirt to hold the moisture so it flows fast. The more humidity in the air means the more moisture. Some nights I’ll almost completely fill a 5 gallon bucket with water. That’s normal. If you want less water then adjust your temperature to a couple degrees warmer. I used to run my ac at 22 Celsius and now I run it at 24 Celsius and there is significantly less water in the pail than before. The colder you run it the more water you get. Hope this helps.

One important note! Never brush the fins side ways, or vacuum with a tool rubbing the fins, because they bend sideways and therefore reduce cooling efficiency! I made that mistake and had to purchase a fin comb!
That means you did not rinse off the cleaner very well after you finished using it. So you probably still have some of the cleaner left on the coils when You turn the AC on and that might be why it's blowing bubbles.
I let the unit run and kept draining it seemed to have worked but I’m unsure if it’s normal for the bottom could to drip water as well it looks like it’s flowing into a channel and it’s a bob on it. (Sorry first time cleaning it just unsure)
This ac was pretty dirty, I am wondering if there is an alternative to the coil safe? I took my AC apart for cleaning before the winter and upon turning it on today; it still stinks. Any advice?

Please tell me you're joking lmao..... You don't think we're all Eskimo's up here and live with snow 365 days a year, do you? That's definitely not the case.. I personally have 4 12,000 btu units going this summer, and it's almost not enough.. it's bloooody hot!
Very helpful information but man, next time consider putting a towel or cardboard under that old unit so as not to scratch up your dryer. My girlfriend would go berserk if she saw me do that. Otherwise, thanks for the tips.
I’ve seen this type of comment many a time lol. The machines are free handmedowns from my father and they are around 15 years old. My wife knows that I do tons of work ontop of the machines and she has said she is ok with it after I asked her about it. She says they are there for washing clothes, not for decoration.

The washer was a free handmedown from my father and it’s more than 10 years old. Not to worried about the machine and neither is my wife. I’ve used the top for many a video. The cleaner was purchased on Amazon. Here is the link a.co/d/aOfpswU Thanks for watching. Please like and subscribe

And when it was ontop of the washer the plug was hanging out of frame. I plugged the entire time. May wanna check your assumptions pal. Thanks for viewing though.
@@BillOfAllTrades2016@ I'm not your "pal." I was trying in the kindest possible language to point out a dangerous condition. Your reply to me did not indicate "in the beginning of the video, I clearly stated the the unit should be first unplugged." So, you didn't mention a warning and the video does not show an unplugged power cord, only a cord with unraveling electrical tape (whatever that is about). I reread my comment several times and I still do not understand how you took offense. I used no harsh language and was attempting to help you. So much for subscribing to your channel. Good luck in< in your pursuit of success on this platform.
Lol It’s not my job to tell everyone to unplug something before servicing it. Just like when I do my automotive videos I don’t show where the axle stands are and speak about safely lifting a vehicle. My videos bring the knowledge of service. The viewer has to bring the common sense of safety. Maybe this is a good lesson about assumptions for you. Just because I don’t dangle the unplugged plug on camera the whole video, doesn’t mean it’s plugged in. And also I never took offense to your comment, I just found it confusing. Thanks again for watching. Take care.
Doesn’t require a garage or work area. This video was filmed in the basement in my townhouse. You can also do on the floor of your living room, bedroom, kitchen etc. you just have to open your mind up and get creative. Life isn’t that difficult.

Doesn’t require a garage or work area. This video was filmed in the basement in my townhouse. You can also do on the floor of your living room, bedroom, kitchen etc. you just have to open your mind up and get creative. Life isn’t that difficult.
