I'm considering getting an extra portable AC on wheels for the bedroom
(which is upstairs) in case my 20 year old central AC were to suddenly die.
That way, I'd be able to get some sleep at night if I weren't able to
immediately have a new central AC installed or the existing system couldn't
be immediately repaired. Is this a good idea or do you I am crazy to want
to spend a few hundred dollars on something to use as a backup for the
bedroom in case the central AC should fail?

Granted my bedroom has ceiling fan, but I'm afraid that alone won't be
enough, because it will most likely be upper 80s or hotter in the upstairs
bedroom at night should the central AC fail in summer.

When central AC is working normally, as an added benefit, I suppose the
portable may also be useful for purpose of cooling the bedroom at night by a
few degrees without my having to lower the thermostat for the entire house.

I already have a portable AC for the home office (also upstairs), since that
room has a cooling problem. I realize the portables on wheels don't work as
well as window units due to negative pressure, but at night when the outside
temperature is cooler they generally work well. Window units can't be
installed here though.

What it really sounds like is that your current AC isn't working right and
the house isn't insulated/vented well enough to keep the heat from coming
in.

If all you want is a bandaid, why not just install a window fan. Like you
said, the night air is cooler, so that should do the job.

It's a one zone system for two floors, and so the upstairs is warmer.

How I would install a window fan in a casement window? The portable AC
could be installed using a piece of plexiglas, but not sure how a window fan
could be installed.

We rigged these up in an apartment we lived in. Buy the window fans
first, so you know the size. Get some kind of plexiglass and cut it to
fit the whole window opening overlapping the edge of the frame, then cut
a piece out of that to fit the fan in, in a vertical position with the
cord coming from the bottom edge. We had plexiglass that was a double
layer insulation type with channels through it and it was frosted for
privacy.

We then cut some 1x3 to fit three sides of the window (the uncut
vertical side, the top, and the cut vertical from the top of the window
to the top of the fan opening) and drilled holes through the 1x and
plexiglass so that the holes would line up.

You then open the window fully and sandwich the window frame between the
plexi (outside) and the 1x (inside) and secure it at each hole with a
wingnut and bolt and some big washers on the plexi side. You do this by
reaching out through the hole you cut to fit the fan into; it can be a
little precarious, especially on the second floor. Have extra hardware
because you'll drop a few and running downstairs to get them gets old.

You then set the fan into the opening, and secure it from falling
forward into the room by putting a spring curtain rod into the window
frame in front of the top edge of the fan.

We're not very handy, but were very proud of ourselves for coming up
with and executing this plan successfully!

Portables cost about $400. You can pick up a window unit for $79 at
walmart.

If you don't want it in the window, use the chainsaw like the man
said and put it in the wall.

Pardon the obvious, but the system IS 20 years old, instead of waiting for
it to fail, get it replaced now and be done with it. That way, you might be
out of A/C for maybe a day, instead of weeks. Do you wait for the engine in
your car to blow up before trading it in on a new one??

Why not just switch the portable you already have to the BR if needed?

And, PC Richards et al always have these in stock, so IF the central A/C
breaks, just run out and get one.

I have two portable Amanas, one I keep in the shop as a dehumidifier, the
other is on the top floor where the central A/C isn't the greatest.
They suck, but hey.....

The dehumidifying aspect of even a crappy A/C is quite a help on some days.
I did the calcs some time ago (based on what a small A/C condenses out), and
a 5 ton central A/C can crank out 100-200 gals of water on a single humid
day.
Almost pure, second only to true distilled water.

Install a 5,000 BTU window unit. Turn off the house AC at night.

Your electrical bills will drop by almost half.

As for installation, we removed the glass from one pane and replaced it with
3/8" plywood, then cut a hole in the plywood to house the AC unit.

If I were to do something like this I'd not just "keep it around in

move the existing portable unit to the bedroom until I could get the
central air fixed. I mean, unless you live in Florida, or something I
would think that you could limp by on just the one portable until you
get your central air fixed.

Rain isn't concentrating all of the airborne pollutants and pathogens from
your home in the resultant precipitation.

Assuming there is that much of a difference.
And on how much smog is up about the rain clouds.
And what the raindrops collect on the way down.
etc.

If it is as bad as you seem to imply, mebbe the home-moaner should be
walking around with a respirator/surgical mask.


Not saying you are wrong, or that there is no difference, just don't
intuitively see it as much of a diff.

I hark back to the various studies on bottled water, and the ripoffs
therein.

I hark back to the various studies on bottled water, and the ripoffs
therein.
Recall Penn and Teller w/ their garden-hose water at a 5-star
restaurant....

That was some of the funniest **** I've ever seen on tv.

Despite watching the show, I *still* drink Poland Spring.
It's my replacement for beer.

I'm sure it's better than nothing at all, but I find it surprising and
contemptable that you are so spoiled that you can't live through one
bloody night without your A/C.

Crank the fan, kick off the covers, and GO BACK TO SLEEP fer
chrissake! Hell, you probably won't even realize that the A/C died
until the next morning.

Mebbe you can un-confuse me by explaining the diff. between rain (a
condensate in clouds), and A/C condensate on a coil.
Afaict, condensate on a coil should be somewhat purer than rain, or a lot
more, depending on atmospheric conditions/pollution.

Rain isn't concentrating all of the airborne pollutants and pathogens from
your home in the resultant precipitation.

Steve screw this asshole. If he wants to prove something he can
either drink the **** for a month and report back or puss out and take
a sample, send it off and post the results of the test.

Yup, he wouldn't know a pathogen if he walked on one.

Yup, let him get some creeping crud disease and the lab sample will be
a biopsy.

Why not just switch the portable you already have to the BR if needed?

And, PC Richards et al always have these in stock, so IF the central
A/C
breaks, just run out and get one.

I have two portable Amanas, one I keep in the shop as a dehumidifier,
the
other is on the top floor where the central A/C isn't the greatest.
They suck, but hey.....

The dehumidifying aspect of even a crappy A/C is quite a help on some
days.
I did the calcs some time ago (based on what a small A/C condenses
out),
and a 5 ton central A/C can crank out 100-200 gals of water on a
single
humid day.
Almost pure, second only to true distilled water.

Really?? what about all the stuff in the air that is being carried off
by
that condensate water?? all of the contaminates in the air that your
breathing?? You can drink it if you want, not me.

Had a guy drink some water from his condensing furnace cause he thought it
was pure. LOL

and?

It's not.

Its not rocket science, its more complicated than that.
