Does this unit have to be vented out a window or is that an option? It seems to state that you need that feature when it is extremely humid only

It needs a vent, I have 2 of these units and they work great if you are in a humid climate you may need to run the drip line somewhere but if not the internal tank does great and I haven't had any issues in eastern Washington with water building up.

There's a big tube that has to be connected to a window and it's not that long so make sure you have a window that opens and is in a place where you can put it. I didn't know that until mine came but it worked out.

I ordered it thinking it did not have to be vented....but in the instructions it states it does have to be vented (which is easy to do).

Yes, it needs to be vented out the window. It comes with an adjustable vent support to set in the window. Otherwise you will be adding hot air from unit to room you are cooling. I am very satisfied with our unit for cooling our second floor bedroom.

For cooling it does need to be vented out. The dehumidifier or fan can be run without venting.

You need to vent it outside so the hot air has somewhere to go. A window is the easiest.

This unit needs to go outside. You can get other units that can go inside but they do require additional venting

Thank you for your interest in Goedekers! This model does need to be vented to the outside. Your apartment would need a way for that air to escape. Otherwise, this may not be the model for you. If you have any other questions, please feel free to call us at 1-888-768-1710. Thank you and have a great day! -Danielle at Goedekers

Yes, the unit has FAN ONLY option. Keep in mind that vents are facing upward.

Yes it does need to be ventilated but it only takes me about 5 minutes to do that . All your doing is running a hose out the window .

Yes I does. It comes with a venting kit for your window with the unit. Easy to install! Unit is great for a bedroom!

The hoses are used to vent the AC out the window. I'm not venting mine though. What good is a portable unit if it has to be by the window? I haven't had any problems by not venting it, so I don't plan on doing it in the future.

If it's not vented you'll be throwing the hot air back into the room defeating the purpose of this AC unit. This unit blows the hot air out the back of the unit ( like most portable AC units). You don't need a window, but you defiantly need to vent the hot air out of the room you're trying to cool. The unit comes with a hose and I cant recall exactly how far it can extend but you would want to run that hose so the hot air is expelled from the room your trying to cool. It may be more expensive, but you might want to look at a ductless AC system if you don't have windows in that room. Either that or cut a hole in the wall so the AC unit can vent out the hot air. Hope this helps! If it's not vented you'll be throwing the hot air back into the room defeating the purpose of this AC unit.

The hot air needs to vent out of the room. Can either be a window, or through the ceiling.

Yes this unit needs to vent outside a window. However this unit is super easy to hookup.

It does not need to be vented outside per say. It can be ran in a closed room. However it is much more efficient when it's venting outside.

It has vents for cooling off, but I don't know how it would be in a humid climate. We live in the high desert.

Yes. I own a couple units. I couldn't get the humidity high enough that it would ever shut off. Granted I try to place them near a return duct for it to benefit other areas of the home as well.

No, you have an option to use it ventless or vented. Very pleased with the product.

This particular unit has to go out side. Its not vented properly for outside. So only outside.
