Oh Christian, I am SOOOOO thankful for this. I have the exact same unit and it ran for 8 years like a charm and the past week or so was first constantly filling with water and then just not working at all anymore. the thing is pricey, didn't want to have to replace it. I watched what you did, took apart the thing, scraped off about 1/4 inch thick worth of awful dust-mat like you had (but worse), vacuumed it all out, and now sitting here with it running and COOLING again! I can't tell you how many hours I've spent on this thing in the past few weeks, and with all my searching somehow never came across your video till now. So thank you, thank you, thank you!

I have the exact same unit and your video was very helpful. We live in South Florida so the unit has been running constantly for about 2 years. Recently I noticed it wasn't cooling as well and then it started filling with water and needed to be drained every hour or so. From looking online it seemed to suggest that it needed cleaning. It sure did the coils were filthy! I just wish I'd seen your video before I tried to take the cover off, would have saved me a lot of time!

Thank you, Sir! For your video, it was very easy to follow and it saved me from having to call a technician😃

I have to clean mine every week with bleach/water mix in a spray bottle. I also drain water directly thru clear 5/8 collars. I get 5 gallons of water per day from the unit. I have the 6000 BTU LG from Hone Depot for 300 buks. I run it constantly 24/7 during the summer. At night when it is cool I run it in dehumidifier mode. I do it’s now after owning it for the first month and not putting the exhaust vent to the very outside pain window and had serious mold issues. The farther out you can exhaust away from the house the better. I am contemplating putting it out 12 inches from the house through a PVC Pipe. I think I wasn’t seeing the water the first month because it probably exhausts the moister, I have seen some that spray the water into the exhaust stream. I will make a video some day. Thanks for posting this video. I might have to take mine part some day.

I did my moms this am. She has two compartments on the back that pop right off. She’s been wiping the outside only for years. I took off the filters and saw blue green brown wet crud on top and bottom 💯 dust on bottom. What a difference in temp settings now that it’s clean.

It provided amazing coolness in a med size room. I really loved the price,

After 3 years of using my Frigidaire AC portable unit during summer seasons it was fine but recently when I plugged it in for the first time since last summer, it released a foul odor. It is a different model and brand but I think the components are pretty much the same, so now I have reference as to what to do to clean it now. Thank you.

It pisses me off because the condenser doesn't have a filter. They count on people just replacing the ac if they have any problems.

Have u ever had a problem with the exhaust fan turning off randomly. I am currently having this problem I need help.

Thank you there are really no videoa you're right. And i need to clean mold out of my tall white haier portable ac.

Gonna have to do this with mine not as bad but after two summers its a bit clogged.

Amazing that the drip tray did not get a lot of gunk build up, nor dust buildup on the squirrel cage fan. The former owner really payed attention to how he cleaned the filter. Big worry I have is black mold build up around the little sump pump ruining it's sensor.

I bought a brand called Kyoto Environmental. I plugged it in the other day and it blows, but not cool air. The unit itself tends to get really hot. Could cleaning be a solution to it? I've cleaned the removable vents, but thinking I might have to go deeper like this video

hi! did you spray on it or hose it down or something? did you do something else aside from what you showed on the video? because i vacuumed mine and the odor was still there...thanks!

Mine was so bad I took it apart like you I thought it was a filter but no it was ALL DUST!

Good video but further advice for you would be to purchase compressed air (canned) or if available to you an air compressor. You have only cleared the surface of the coil/s, the fins obviously run the length of the coil where dust/bacteria also collects. Cleaning off the surface and then cleaning the coil deeper would improve the units efficiency. You can also purchase a coil cleaner solution. Finally chuck in 1 part bleech and 4 parts water into the drain tray, allow to soak for a while then release the water as you would if you was draining off collected condense water.

Thank you!!!! I have the same Ac!!!!

@@drServitis I had 2 portable air conditioners go, by that same way. I'm wondering if it was because I stored them in a very cold place over the winter (no heat) & if it cracked the coils. Upon reading the manual of my newest one, it states not to use it when it the temperature drops below a certain degree or that could happen, so I'm wondering if it is the same even if it isn't running. I now store my newest one, tucked into a corner of my living room for the winter. Fingers crossed.

I have the same unit and I have had it about 3 years. It is a stupid design making opening the unit and cleaning very hard. I clean mine 3 times a year. There is a small passage way near the hose outlet that always gets jammed with dust bunnies. Right now I have a clogged drip tray and might take the fan assembly apart.

Hello i just got an Lg off market place a 8000 btu but its not super cold could the coil be dirty the filter on the back was very dusty is it hard taking it part an did you use a spray solution on the coils...

Wow its been extremely hot in California since last week and today I decided to take a look in the back of this unit and I cannot believe what I saw. I dont understand why this bottom vent doesnt come with a screen. Well I got lucky cause the very first video that I came across was this one and it made it so easy to take apart. The only thing I did not do is wash it. To wash it...is it ok to just get the whole thing wet except the upper controls?

i am attempting to do the same on a Soleus Air MAC8000... my parents have in on storage for about 6 or 8 years and the thing actually still works... but i am sure it needs a good cleaning badly. gonna give it use on a small room i use for hobbies... now my question is... would using coil cleaner like the one we use on window ACs for the panels... would that damage it? and can i use the garden house to just clean the insides? bare with me... this is the 1st time i do this with a portable unit... and a very old one apparently.

I came on also because I can't find all of the screws. LOL so this did help.

Wash it man

If your in the comments trying to find a good video about this topic look no further

Any one who live in the Toronto area willing to clean a seniors air conditioner.Willing to pay

this is why you must clean your portable every 3 weeks and if its in a really dust environment you must clean it more frequently

Yuck, that would make it smell.

Hi Sarah, your watching some old vids very cool! It did have that musty smell. Thank you for all your nice comments. I really appreciate people like you!!!

90% + of dust is dead human skin. You have about half a person in that air conditioner of yours.

You're doing it all wrong you need to pressure wash it it'll get it twice a year doing and you can clean the fan blades trust me

Sorry, but your 100% wrong. Pressure washing will only turn everything to mud, and fold the fins over. That would be like the company's that pressure wash the evaporators on equipment. It completely runs them, and the system cant blow cold.

OMG! 'Dis screw and dat screw' Everybody's unit is different and smart people realize this.Just get to the point!

Honestly this video was very difficult to watch. Please get a tripod or just prop your phone/camera somewhere instead of waving it around like that!
