I made the immense mistake of buying used portable heating, ventilation and A/C device online trying to save a few bucks, then this was something I should have never done.
The portable air conditioning idea that I purchased worked for a whole 2 afternoons before it was broke and not working anymore. The portable space heating system that I purchased which was used had some funny odor coming out of it when I turned it on, so I instantly shut it off, and both the portable air conditioning idea and the portable space heating system were demanded refunds and then returned… I do not think what possessed myself and others to buy portable heating, ventilation and A/C device that was used online. I thought that since I have purchased other used things that worked out wonderful and saved myself and others tons of money I could do the same with portable air conditioners and portable space heaters. But I guess not. It is just better, safer and less hassle to spend the full amount and go buy them in a store brand new. If you are looking to save money, wait till there is a sale on portable space furnaces and portable air conditioners. This happens from time to time everywhere… You just need to keep your eye out to your local cable commercials and local newspapers if you still get a physical papers. If not, read the paper online and you can look for store ads that may have portable air conditioners and portable space furnaces on sale.
