One of those "portable AC" units.
My home office gets up to 85° at minimum during the hot summer days. Having a tech come in and fix my entire HVAC setup is too rich for my blood. HOA won't allow window units... Finally caved and got the more expensive "portable" ac system that sit on the floor and have tubes that go out the window.
Room can get down to 73° during those same hot days and I am so happy with it.
Good job on getting one with dual vents. They are just as efficient as a window unit.
Which one do you have? I’m in a similar situation boiling like a lobster in my apartment as I write this.
Not who you replied to but I have a Whynter I'm pretty happy with. Low maintenance, reliable for the few years I've had it so far, and works reasonably well in my one bedroom apartment. The inlet and outlet hoses are a bitch to clean but other than that it's been great.
Not OP but I got one of the Midea ACs for my home office that hits 31C in the afternoon
It's not cheap, but runs quietly and easily cools down the room
