Air-cooled portable air conditioners are common for supplemental cooling in offices, warehouses, and spaces that contain sensitive equipment, like computer server rooms and manufacturing facilities. These industrial portable spot coolers must be vented since they require air ducts to extract hot air from the unit and send it out of the room. This is commonly achieved through a window or into a ceiling plenum served by a central HVAC system, though it could also be through an open garage door.
Because these portable cooler air conditioner units exhaust the warm condenser air outside of the room, they could create a negative pressure situation. If this is a concern, you might opt for a water-cooled portable spot cooler instead, or invest in a condenser plenum kit.
At NorthStock, we carry a large inventory of industrial portable spot coolers, accessories, and replacement parts from the industry's top manufacturers. Take a closer look at our selection:
