An air conditioner that is portable, such as an Everstar air conditioner, is an ac unit that can be moved from one location to 
another location. Proper venting is required for this unit. Windows and walls are often used as venting outlets. You can also use drop ceilings. The exhaust hose will need to be situated once you have placed the unit where you want it.
Many manufacturers claim that their units do not require venting, but this is not true. Units need venting, as the hot air needs to be vented away in order to cool down a room. Venting out through a window may not be the only option you have, as you can vent the air into a room where you think heat will not be a problem, such as a storage room. Portable AC units need to function properly, and in order to do so they need venting, otherwise they will not operate to their full potential. The good news is that venting is inexpensive. Many units include an installation kit.
There are steps that need to be taken when venting a unit. First, find the location for the vent, and then take the connector and slide it right over the opening. Next, take the exhaust hose and connect it to the exhausts connector.
In order to fit the window, you will need to cut the window kit. Once this has been done you will close the window against foam seal, as this will ensure that warm air will not come through. The exhaust hose will fit through the foam when it is cut. The installation process takes an average of 5-10 minutes to complete.
An exhaust hose that is 5-7 feet long is good. 5 inches for the diameter is ideal, but make sure to not extend the length. If a hose is extended, then the unit could end up being damaged. If you feel that the hose has to be extended, then the diameter should also be extended.
You do not want to vent through a dryer vent, as this is not recommended. You will definitely not want to do this if the diameter of the hose is bigger than the dryer vents diameter. If your dryer vent has external vents, then you will not want to use it. The reason for this is because the portable AC unite will not push the flaps open.
VERY INFORMATIVE ARTICLE. Thanks
