Useful information
All portable air conditioners must be vented out so the heat is removed from the room that is being cooled. The ideal solution is to vent them through a wall or window. For your convenience, this air conditioner is supplied with a hose and a window venting kit so you can start using it straight away! The provided kit is designed to be installed with sliding or sash windows but is not ideal for other window types. However, the provided fishtail adapter can be used with most windows or doors. During cooling, the fishtail reducer ensures that the opening is as small as possible. For even better cooling, we provide an optional universal window seal at checkout.

Fitting Instructions
Venting Made Simple Portable air conditioners perform best when warm air is vented outside through a window or wall. This model includes everything you need to get started straight away, including a flexible exhaust hose and a hose-end fishtail adaptor that helps reduce the window opening while maintaining efficient airflow.
Fits Most Windows and Doors The supplied fishtail adaptor is designed to work with the majority of window and door types. It helps create a secure fit with minimal gaps, keeping hot air out and cool air in for more effective cooling.
Suitable for Single-Room Use For single rooms, the unit can also be vented into a corridor or hallway. This can be useful when window access is limited, allowing you to direct warm air away from the room you’re cooling while still maintaining comfortable temperatures.
Optional Seals for Maximum Efficiency Supplied with an exhaust hose and fishtail adaptor for fast setup, the unit can be vented through a window, wall, or even into a corridor through the door for single-room use. For improved efficiency, use the included sash-window kit where compatible with your window type, or add an optional universal window seal at checkout for an even tighter installation.
Question from Rudy: Asked on 29/05/2026 does this come with a window kit
Hi, Yes, the electriQ 12000 BTU Portable Air Conditioner (P12C) comes complete with a window venting kit included in the box. This includes the exhaust hose, window connector and slide bar kit, allowing it to be vented through most standard windows straight away.
Thank you.
Question from Pablo Caja: Asked on 27/05/2026 Where is the best place to put it in a room ?
Nearest to the window ?
With the fan pointing into the room or out of the room ?
Hi Pablo,Place the air conditioner as close to the window as possible so the exhaust hose is short and straight, and make sure the hot air is always directed out through the window rather than back into the room. The unit should face into the room so the cool air blows inside, while the back stays near the window for venting.Thanks!
Question from Liz: Asked on 27/05/2026 How noisy is this?
Hi, The electriQ P12C runs at around 49 dB, which is roughly the level of a normal conversation. In use, this means you will hear a steady background hum and airflow while it is operating, and it can become more noticeable when the compressor or fan speeds increase. It is not silent, but this is typical for a 12,000 BTU portable air conditioner.
Thank you.
Question from Sb: Asked on 26/05/2026 Can I use this through a slightly open window if I don’t have a window kit
Hi,Yes — you can use the electriQ P12C Portable Air Conditioner through a slightly open window without a window kit by venting the exhaust hose outside, although sealing the gap as much as possible will help it cool the room more efficiently.Thanks!
Question from tanmim: Asked on 26/05/2026 What is the diameter of the hose?
Hi Tanmim,The electriQ P12C 12000 BTU portable air conditioner uses a 150 mm (6-inch) diameter exhaust hose.Thanks!
Question from Neil: Asked on 26/05/2026 can this run a 13amp 3 pin plug
Hi, Yes — the electriQ P12C 12,000 BTU portable air conditioner is supplied with a standard UK 3-pin 13A plug and is designed to run from a normal household socket. It operates at around 1550W, which is well within the capacity of a standard 13A domestic circuit, so no special electrical installation is required.
Thank you.
Question from Susie: Asked on 26/05/2026 Morning
Can you use this without the hose
Just the landing has no windows or anyway of using it
Thanks
Hi susie,You can use the electriQ 12000 BTU Portable Air Conditioner P12C without the hose in fan or dehumidifier mode, but to actually cool the landing the exhaust hose needs to be vented outside, otherwise the hot air stays in the room.Thanks!
Question from Nicky: Asked on 26/05/2026 What is the maximum and minimum length of the window slide bar?
Hi Nicky,The window slide bar for the electriQ 12000 BTU Portable Air Conditioner (P12C) adjusts from about 30 cm at its shortest to around 180 cm at its longest, so it can fit small sliding openings as well as much wider windows up to 1.8 metres.Thanks!
Question from Hs: Asked on 25/05/2026 Which refrigerant does this model use?
Hi,The electriQ 12000 BTU Portable Air Conditioner (P12C) uses R290 (propane) as its refrigerant.Thanks!

Question from Beatriz Betancort: Asked on 23/05/2026 How effective is the dehumidifier function?
Hi,The dehumidifier function on this portable air conditioner is quite effective for its type, removing up to 36 litres of moisture per day in ideal conditions, though in typical UK home use you’re more likely to see around 8–20 litres per day; it’s good for reducing humidity, dampness, and that sticky feeling in warm weather, but it’s not as efficient or quiet as a dedicated standalone dehumidifier.Thanks!
Question from Luke: Asked on 24/04/2026 I want to buy this product, however i am unsure of it will fit with our push out windows?
Hi Luke,The electriQ 12000 BTU P12C portable air conditioner can be used with push-out windows, but the standard window kit it comes with is not suitable on its own. You will need an additional solution, such as a universal fabric window seal or a custom-made panel, to properly seal the hose opening and ensure the unit works efficiently.Thanks!
Question from Tim: Asked on 21/04/2026 Can you adjust the temperature lower than the automatic 23°C?
Hi Tim,Yes — you can set it lower than 23°C, but that 23°C is just the default in auto mode. If you switch the unit to cooling mode, you can manually lower the temperature all the way down to 16°C.Thanks!
Question from Gordon: Asked on 16/04/2026 Hi Where are these units made and shipped from?
Hi, Thank you for your inquiry. Our electriQ 12,000 BTU Portable Air Conditioner (P12C) is manufactured in China and shipped directly to us for quality checks and fulfillment.
Thank you.
Question from Cornish: Asked on 13/04/2026 Hi id like to vent through the wall what size bracket do i get for the wall for the hose to connect too using a portable ac unit
Hi,You should use a 150mm (6 inch) wall vent kit or flange, because that matches the exhaust hose on your electriQ P12C portable air conditioner, and the hose connects directly to that rather than needing a special bracket.Thanks!

Question from Pre: Asked on 08/04/2026 Is this safe to have in a pet/dog room? Would the fur get clogged in the wants?
Hi,The electriQ 12000?BTU Portable Air Conditioner (P12C) is safe to use in a room with dogs, provided it is properly vented and positioned. However, pet fur can accumulate in its intake and filters, so regular cleaning is necessary to maintain airflow and efficiency. Placing the unit slightly off the floor, keeping the surrounding area tidy, and grooming your pet frequently can help minimize fur buildup and ensure the AC runs smoothly.Thanks!
Question from Chris: Asked on 01/03/2026 Would this be suitable for a small conservatory. 5m by 2.5 m wide
Hi Chris,The electriQ 12,000?BTU portable air conditioner (P12C) would be suitable for your conservatory, which is 5?m by 2.5?m (12.5?m²), as it has more than enough cooling capacity for that size. However, because conservatories often have large glass areas that let in a lot of heat, its effectiveness will depend on proper venting, shading, and insulation to maintain a comfortable temperature.Thanks!
Question from peter: Asked on 28/02/2026 how easy is it to drain water
Hi Peter,Draining water from the ElectriQ 12000?BTU Portable Air Conditioner (P12C) is very easy: the unit has a small internal tank that can be emptied by simply removing a drain plug, and its self-evaporative system means you often won’t need to drain it manually; for added convenience, you can also attach a hose for continuous automatic drainage.Thanks!

Question from Harbs: Asked on 19/07/2021 Can I get a longer heat extractor pipe for this AC unit ?
Hi Harbs
We recommend that the standard hose be used as an extension can put addiditional strain on the unit.
If possible move the unit closer to a window perhaps by stading it on a box or piece of furniture.
Kind regards,
Michael
