is one inlet and the other outlet for heat?

[PortableCooling]

@UBERKron That's correct. One tube sucks in air, the other blows the air out. This keeps the machine from sucking air out of the room and blowing it outside.

@PortableCooling im confused about the return too, because wouldnt it cycle less since its easier to cool inside ambient air, than to pull the outside heat over the evp coil? isnt this the case with units that have only one hose transfering heat out the window and a return inside on the face of the unit? my unit has two hoses but i lost the instructions. im not sure how to config the return. 8mos old but please advise on best config thanks

@baychecks100 You've almost got it. The air that is sucked in from outside does not flow over the evaporator coil (cold coil). The air from outside is used to the cool down the condenser coil (hot coil). The outside air is sucked in, cools down the coil and then gets blown back outside.

While this is taking place, the evaporator coil (cold coil) repeatedly recirculates inside air, cooling it down.

@PortableCooling i understand now, thanks for the info.

@smiley0407 Dear Smiley, Thanks for your response. I'm sorry to see that your original comment has been removed. . My comment on your original comment was about you running down the nice house that you live in. Just because you find it hot it is not appropriate to infer that the house is faulty. . I have lived in a 1920 California Bungalow style house for many years and loved it because of the ornate decoration. . It might have been better to word your orignal comment more sensitively

also it wasn't in most homes before the 1950's quote "Over time, air conditioning came to be used to improve comfort in homes and automobiles as well. Residential sales expanded dramatically in the 1950s." It might have been around in 1912 but only 1 out of 10 houses had them just like microwaves when they came out. So don't be a smart ass know it all. I read plenty.

Cheers

Well it was extremely rare back then and no where as safe as it is today. Quote "The first air conditioners and refrigerators employed toxic or flammable gases, such as ammonia, methyl chloride, and propane, that could result in fatal accidents when they leaked. Thomas Midgley, Jr. created the first chlorofluorocarbon gas, Freon, in 1928." end quote.

@smiley0407 Air Conditioning was available in 1912, the owner of your home, then (your grandfather?), chose not to have it installed when the building was constructed for his own personal reasons.

.

You'd have to ask him rather than say ''because it was built in 1912'' to the world, as though there was some external fault or reason for it not having been installed.

Read more books.
