Can I run portable AC all day?
AC or portable air conditioner can run 24 hours a day, 7 days a week without shortening its average lifespan. Running continuously will not cause overheating, excessive wear and tear to the unit, or any other damage that will shorten the life of your AC unit. The cooling time depends on several factors, including the temperature of the room, the type of AC, and the amount of energy used by the AC.
For example, if you are in a room with a high temperature, such as a hot kitchen, you will need to wait longer for your unit to reach its cool-down temperature. If you have an AC that is not designed to run continuously, it will take longer to get to its cooling temperature than it would if it were designed for continuous operation.
