oowee Posted August 11, 2022 Report Share Posted August 11, 2022 Wait till she gets it working and then does not empty the water. I am trying to buy another. The first was dropped by dpd on the way out of the van. The second had a drain too close to the floor for a bowl. Trying to decide what next but in between times (today) I have had heat reflective film added to the windows. Hoping that makes a big difference although I am a bit concerned over bird strikes.

MWildfowler Posted August 11, 2022 Report Share Posted August 11, 2022 Recently bought an Igenix portable ac unit. I think it is 9000-10000 btu isn’t the most advanced thing out there but does the job. Given the heatwave we’re having again very glad I got it!
