ZoneAire is portable, so is there really any “installation”?

While ZoneAire doesn’t require traditional installation, there are some important things you need to know before you operate the unit:

• To operate ZoneAire in air conditioning/cooling mode, it must be vented to the outside through a window or other opening. ZoneAire ships with a window installation kit that fits horizontal and vertical windows up to 46" wide. This is the piece through which you’ll vent the unit’s hoses to the outside.
• You do not need to vent ZoneAire to the outside to operate it in dehumidification or fan mode.

Do I need a special outlet to run ZoneAire?

No, the unit plugs into a regular 115V outlet.

Is ZoneAire easy to maneuver?

The unit has ergonomic handles and casters built in. You don’t have to lift it; simply roll and guide the unit from room to room.

Is there a continuous-drainage option?

Yes, you can attach a ½" hose to the rear of the unit and run it through a drain for continuous drainage.
