I would ask a home contractor about that. I believe that it would have to vent outside the home to meet building code. Although, I do see your point!

yes, it needs to be vented somewhere. You could purchase an awesome high-powered fan and it would cool as well and not need vented.

NO! Unless you want to short everything out. IF you put it under the eave of a house - Maybe!

I don't think so. You can do that by using the roof vent with exhaust flapper.

There is a vent on the top of the unit that the instructions implicitly say to not cover, so I'm guessing it would not be a good idea to enclose it entirely.

There's a 6" tube that will vent out the hot air from the unit. It's ideal if you had a window to let the hot air vent out otherwise it will probably just recirculate the hot air into your living room.

Hi Diana, yes, the unit has to be vented outside the area you are trying to cool off. It comes with the materials to vent the unit outside a window. If the office you have has a dropped ceiling you maybe able to vent into the space above your office space. I did that, vented exhaust into roof space.

The hot air needs to vent out of the room. Can either be a window, or through the ceiling.

It can be configured to either vent out the front or if you have the ventilation ducting to outside you can direct it up through a duct in the top (through the cabinets above it) or out the wall behind it. Other than mustering up the courage to cut a hole in the side of my house, and measuring about 6 times to make sure it was in the correct location, it was actually pretty easy to make it vent out through the wall.

Yes it must be vented as all portable air conditioners must. If not, they would just blow the hot air they are exchanging back into the room you are attempting to cool.

I ordered it thinking it did not have to be vented....but in the instructions it states it does have to be vented (which is easy to do).

That was my intention too but the unit is bulky and clumsy to vent out and I would not recommend it for this purpose.

Hi, if you are just replacing an old one with this, the venting system is already in place in your house. You don't have to do anything with that. We like ours a lot.

No. I've had the manual on top of it for a month. It's hard to explain but vents out the back and up. There is a bump out in back and it vents out the top of that- which is ~2" below the top of the unit.

Yes, it does have to be vented to extract the warm air. It instructs venting through a window. I don't know if hte attic would be acceptable. You could always call the company! Hope this helps.

No, you have an option to use it ventless or vented. Very pleased with the product.
