I am looking for a manual for a portable AC unit. Sisco seams to no longer make portable AC units, they only make central units for commercial,industrial,military. If anybody has this unit, please let me know if you can supply me with a manual.

I am trying to find out if this unit has filler valves. And if so, where. I believe this unit needs to recharged. It looks like a early or middle 90's model. The air it pushes out is barely colder than the room air. Because of this, it won't bring the temp down like a AC is supposed to do.

The shreader valve may not be on this unit.. Most small A/C are sealed system..

You could take it in to have it serviced.. It may cost you more than a new unit may cost.

Well... Regardless if this is a sealed unit or not, I have compared portable AC units with this one and mine is like a 300 to 400 dollar unit so if it costs 100 dollars to fix, I am all for it! ;)

Dont know that unit. But lot of the small compressors have a charge port on them but they all take different kind of tools to get on. If not any hvac shop can put a line tap on it. If the compressor has a charge tail there put the line tap on it.

Did you find a manual for this unit?

I have an opportunity to buy one at a "moving sale" but couldn't figure out how the unit vents hot air. Does yours have a vent hose?
