    Overview

    Quickly portable and easy to set-up, the TCL 3.5kW Portable Air Conditioner will keep you cool no matter which room you are in. Featuring an impressive 3.5kW of cooling power, this unit will have you living, and sleeping comfortably on even the hottest summer night.

    The efficient dehumidifier reduces air moisture content inside your home and keeps the humidity at a comfortable level - no need to suffer through a humid Australian summer again.

    Want to cool your home just before you return from work? Set the air conditioner to operate any time of the day or night with the 24 hour timer.

    Room temperature and humidity are kept at optimum levels, without excessive fluctuations, whilst operation is maintained when you set the air conditioner to sleep mode, providing comfort during those hot summer nights.
    Multifunction three-in-one comfort

    Select from three effective operation modes. Choose air conditioning for temperature control, dehumidifier to reduce air moisture or fan to create pleasant air movement around your room.

    Two speed fan

    Select from multiple fan speeds to regulate air movement. Low or high - you choose the speed to match the space and your personal preference.

    Simple set-up

    Easily portable and simple to set-up allows you to take your comfort with you. The single hose exhaust system means you can shift rooms and quickly start cooling again.

    Easy maintenance filter

    Keep your air free from dust, particles and debris with the washable filter. The no-hassle and easy-to-clean reusable filter simplifies regular maintenance of the air conditioner.

    Happy with purchase
    Fantastic portable aircon. Perfect for bedroom, as many other portable aircons, it's a little noisy. With the heatwave we experienced recently, this unit, was a lifesaver.

    Emptying water every hour
    For the first 2 weeks the unit ran 5-6 hours a day perfectly before getting it's first full tank error. Emptied the tank and turned it back on and within an hour it was full again. I can only use it in continuous drain mode with a hose into a bucket, or stopping it and emptying it manually every hour. Asked support about it and was told it's normal function. (despite it not doing this for the first 2 weeks) wouldn't be a horrible issue if it came with a drain kit, but it doesnt. (as its advertised as rarely needing draining because of self evaporation)

    Questions & answers

    can you buy a kit to fit a glass sliding door Scott · 2025-08-09
    Hello Thank you for this product question. Sorry, no, the kits have been designed for sliding windows only, not doors. To fit a doorway, I have had customers say that they went and had this piece custom made, some have mentioned that they went and bought thick styrene and cut the shape of the hose and use that this way, just a thought for you with options. I hope this information will assist you when shopping with us at Appliances Online. Our Sydney-based team is available 24/7 to assist you at Ph: 1300-000-500. Colin Jones, Appliances Online
    Hi, is it possible to explain how it goes in the window please, thx😊 Melody67 · 2024-12-16
    Hi Melody, it's designed to fit horizontal or vertical sliding windows. The kit includes an adjustable panel that fits into the window frame, creating a seal. The exhaust hose connects to this panel, directing hot air outside efficiently. Hopefully this helps =) Cheers, Adam from Appliances Online. AdamD, Appliances Online
    The noise level is "Indoor Sound Level 65". How do I use that metric to get a sense of how noisy the portable air conditioner may be ? Rochus · 2024-11-06
    Hello there, apologies - it looks like "dB" dropped off with our most recent website update. Thank you for flagging =) It's 65 decibels - which is pretty standard for portable air conditioners and makes it minimally noisier than a pedestal fan. Hopefully this helps! Kind regards, Adam from Appliances Online. AdamD, Appliances Online
    Can this be run in dehumidifier mode without the exhaust vent? Josh · 2024-10-29
    Hello Josh, Thank you for your question about the product. Since the motor is located internally and the exhaust is at the rear, it will release the motor's heat back into the room. The only function that doesn't require the hose to be connected is when the unit is set to fan mode. All other functions will need the hose to be connected, and this applies to other brands and models as well. I trust that this information will prove helpful as you shop with us at Appliances Online. Our Sydney office operates around the clock 24/7, and you can reach us at 1300-000-500. Colin Jones, Appliances Online
