Why is my portable AC not blowing cold air?

If your AC is blowing cold air out of the top vent, but your room still isn’t getting cold, your room is probably too hot or too large for the heat capacity of your air conditioner. Remember that portable air conditioners can only cool the room size they’re advertised for in moderate outdoor heat.

Why does my air conditioner keep dripping cold water?

The cold water dripping off the cooling coils (on the inside-the-house half of the unit) is channeled to the outside drain pan where the outside fan splashes it against the hot coils on the outside part of the unit to help remove the heat from the refrigerant, thus increasing the efficiency of the unit.

Why is there no water coming out of my water cooler?

There is no water coming from your water cooler.
