Pocster Posted May 27 Author Posted May 27 OK! Back here again! So need to cool 2 bedrooms with AC. No floor standing shite. So I guess single contained units; 1 in each room no split system. Going to be a BASTARD to install i.e. to get the vent pipe through. (TWICE!) Am I allowed to vent into the loft? 🙃 has it GOT to be outdoors? Electrics ok to wire off either a plug or off an existing socket ring?. No chance getting wiring from AC back to CU.... I'm under SWMBO orders to investigate!
Mr Punter Posted May 27 Posted May 27 You may as well get someone to supply and fit, as you need to meet electrical and Fgas regs. They are probably busy now. Have a ring round in a week or two.
Pocster Posted May 27 Author Posted May 27 Water cooled air con? As far as I understand no vent through wall. Air con unit just needs pipe work to condensor unit. I could mount that under MVHR unit and share its drainage channel to outdoors???

For a minute I thought you'd uncovered a blinder of a solution. Well, maybe not quite as simple as hoped, unless you're happy to tap into your heating system. Have a look at the required schematic. Easier to go with the 2 hole versions probably.

My link is!. water in, electric in, drain out. Cost is upsetting though.... Looking back at cheap mobile units where you jsut sticka vent out the door and seal that gap up....

The screenshot is from the installation manual for that exact model - the Powrmatic Vision H20. I'm more inclined to believe the manufacturer than the salesman? Think about it. It's a bonkers idea that you just turn a mains tap on and then let it run into a drain? 1 hour ago, Pocster said: Cost is upsetting though Yes, the through wall ones can be had for about 1/2 that price.

Pocster Posted 12 hours ago Author Posted 12 hours ago What a pile of wank . I think just a piece of ply somehow fixed to opening ( not (expletive deleted)ing window ) would be better ! Wank concept and wank install 2
Pocster Posted 12 hours ago Author Posted 12 hours ago (edited) Presumably I go out and burglar just opens window and steals everything. shite I think a simple piece of board fixed against frame with hole in would be better . Take seconds to setup and take down . This is shite with a capital S ! Edited 12 hours ago by Pocster 2

Ed_ Posted 11 hours ago Posted 11 hours ago Some of these portable AC units can be simply modified so that the air intake is ducted outside too which makes it closed loop. A whole internet ecosystem of people doing it!
