Basically, I need a portable AC unit to cool a 13x20 bedroom that will
vent hot air either under a doorjamb or - I'm wondering if this is
even possible - down a heating vent. I see a ton of models on eBay and
locally and have no idea what to look for.

This is not a good idea. The heat and moisture can cause other problems that
could make your asthma even worse. Do you have an air purifier with HEPA
filter? I'd run one in the bedroom while the AC is on. Probably run it all
the time.

I don't mind emptying a
water reservoir, but I simply cannot have the windows open, period. If
I can solve this problem for around $500, all the better. Any advice
is MUCH appreciated. Thank you.
