In every aspect, the active system in this compact air conditioner for a small room is designed to make your life easier. With this portable air conditioner with a fan, you can stay cool while keeping with better environmental standards and reducing energy consumption. The ARC-102CS is completely CFC-free and lead-free, so it is eco-friendly and has high energy efficiency. There is also the automated restart so you can get right back to where you started in the event of a power outage just as soon as the power comes back on. This compact air conditioner for a small room includes our auto drain technology, which uses and recycles moisture collected during the cooling process to produce cool air in an actively automated process for your convenience. With that direct drain, you can continuously use the unit year-round regardless of temperatures, and easily move the machine due to its convenient size.
