I have misplaced my manual for my Kenmore c120 air conditioner. I have always used it for an air conditioner and would like to use the de humidifier mode. Do I use it exaclty the same way, just change the mode? Is there anything I should be aware of when using this mode?

If it's a de-humidifier, it is made to take the water out of the air. Usually you will need to take the water out of the de-humidifier that gets condensed out of the air.

An air humidifier works in the opposite way and would need to have water added to re-humidify the air.

An integrated de-humidifier is normally a cycling Air Conditioner. If the one on the furnace has a water line running to it, shut the water off and see what happens.

I've added a blog at my website as well as a link to your owners manual. Visit www.60cubits.com. Please leave a comment and let me know if this helped.

Yes is does work as a dehumidifier, when it's in dehumidifier mode. Using just the AC mode, will slow up the collect ion of water some. However, the tank will still need to be drained occasionally. There are 2 ways to train the tank.

1. In to a low sided pan or bowl, capable of holding at least 1 quart of water.

2. Roll the unit to a floor drain or outside to drain the bucket.

Hope this helps and thanks for choosing FixYa.

DeLonghi has the manuals for their portable air conditioners here: http://delonghiusa.com/support/product_manuals/5#table-jump . The direct link to the PAC C120 manual is http://delonghiusa.com/support/sites/default/files/product_manuals/m-PAC+C120.pdf .

Before cleaning, turn off the air conditioner. To clean the filter, pull it straight up from behind the top of the air intake (on the back of the PAC C120). Vacuum off the filter. If it is very dirty, immerse it in warm water and rinse several times. (The water should not above 40 degrees Celsius (104 degrees F)) several times. Then allow the filter to air dry. Slide the filter back into the air conditioner and turn the unit back on.

I hope this helps.

Sorry but you are just going to have to keep emptying it. These types or air conditioners are also use as de-humidifiers and unless you can place it somewhere where you can connect a drain hose it is going to require many trips to dump the holding tank of the condensation.

Dehumidification is one of the main jobs of an air conditioner. It is not possible to run an air conditioner, and not have it remove humidity. The short answer to your question is no, you can not disable or turn off the "de-humidify" option, as it is not an "option". Hope this helps.

Go to this web site. It has the manual on your unit. check it out.
Hope this helps.

I've actually had a great deal of customers of mine that were interested in a cooling unit that offered a humidifying option. Most of the standard models out on today's market offer the exact opposite. I work for ABS Air Conditioning in Clearwater, Florida. Up until recently, we had not offered such models but due to overwhelming requests we decided to introduce several models to our line, and I must add, with great success. I've built up some personal experience with such units as well as my staff. If you're interested in learning more about the practicality and operation of humidifying units I'd be more than happy to share with you what I know. I can be reached at 727-608-1251
