Not bad
The cooling was very effective. We had quite a big room and it cooled it very well however after a month all of the lights/display stopped working. Other than that it was good for what we need

Never buy this item
Really bad item. Work only few days, after that totally rubbish. I have to bring back to shop, ask for replacement. They said, someone from rinnai will be coming to my place. They plugged in and it works. Brring back to home again and not working again at home i brought again tonl shop, finally Ive got refund. Wasting my time, wasting my petrol. Not recommend at all

Q: What size room is the Rinnai 3.5kW Cooling Only Portable Air Conditioner best suited to?
A: A 3.5kW portable air conditioner is generally best for a small to medium room, roughly around 20 to 30 square metres in typical conditions. Very sunny rooms, poor insulation or high ceilings can reduce how effectively it cools.
Q: Does the Rinnai 3.5kW portable air conditioner need to be vented through a window?
A: Yes. Like other portable air conditioners, this model needs its exhaust hose vented out of a window or similar opening so hot air is removed from the room. It will not cool properly if the exhaust air is allowed to flow back indoors.
Q: Can the Rinnai RPC35MC be used for heating as well as cooling?
A: No. This is a cooling only portable air conditioner, so it is designed to lower room temperature in warmer weather but does not provide a reverse-cycle heating mode. If winter heating matters, a heating and cooling model will be the better fit.
Q: Is the Rinnai 3.5kW portable air conditioner a good option for renters or rooms where a split system cannot be installed?
A: Yes. A portable unit like this suits renters, temporary setups or rooms where fixed air conditioning is not practical, because it does not require permanent wall mounting.
Q: Can this Rinnai portable air conditioner be moved between rooms?
A: Yes, but it is most practical when each room has a suitable window or opening for the exhaust hose. Moving it is simpler than installing a split system, although setup still needs enough space near the window each time you relocate it.
