The portable AC unit is much easier to maintain and use than central ACs. There are no miles of wiring, ductwork, and installation. Plug it in, and you’re good to go.
After you’ve set it up, which takes approximately 2 hours, or 1 hour if your portable AC is newer, the LG portable AC conditioner is ready for use. It comes with a window installation kit.
The control panel on the front has an LED display panel and three buttons to either side. You can use the buttons to control the fan, turn the unit on/off, adjust the timer, change the temperature, and set a timer.
You can leave the unit on for up to 24 hours. After the timer expires, it will automatically shut down. This is useful if you’re going to bed at night and don’t want your AC running all night. You can also set the unit so that it will automatically restart at a specific time.
LG comes with a handy LCD remote control that you can use to avoid pressing all those buttons.
A second feature is that the unit has an automatic evaporation system. This allows it to remove all moisture from the room. So you don’t need to worry about emptying the water bucket.
