can I vent thru the roof ? how many cfms ?

I think this microwave relies just on airflow around it for cooling. I assume it has a very small cooling fan for the electrical parts that need that, but not one that would put out significant CFMs. So I don't think you would gain anything by somehow managing to "vent" it through the roof. The tiny fan in the unit wouldn't be powerful enough to push enough air, even if you could direct it upward through the roof. The microwave just needs space around it for airflow, no other venting.

This has a front vent, I don't believe microwaves require an external vent. Not sure on the CFM.

Hi Diana, yes, the unit has to be vented outside the area you are trying to cool off. It comes with the materials to vent the unit outside a window. If the office you have has a dropped ceiling you maybe able to vent into the space above your office space. I did that, vented exhaust into roof space.

This is a power vent unit so you can vent it horizontally through the wall, or vertically. I suggest you go on line and download the installation manual before you but it to be sure it will work for your situation. I have mine vented horizontally through the wall which is about three feet from the unit. My garage is 26 X 24 with an upstairs storage area. Very little insulation in the Chicago area and the unit keeps a constant 70 degrees. Hope this helps.

You have to have the exhaust hose vented out a window. Otherwise you are defeating the purpose of cool air and the hot exhaust.

No you cannot, this unit needs to be connected to a ducting that is properly vented to the outside!

I set mine up to draw fumes or hot air out of my garage. It fit perfectly into the opening of a roof vent. It is only max 400cfm so your volumetric flow is not high, but to move some fumes it works. I found paint spray vapor deposited on my fan blades so it does work somewhat ok. But it is not sealed, spark proof or waterproof so think about your application carefully & be sure you are not creating a hazard

There are NOT any roof vents with this tent. We used it for the first time this 4th of July weekend for a 4 day camping trip on the Hood Canal in WA state. 80+ degree sunny weather all 4 days with nights in the 60s. The tent was amazing and ventilated very well. Just keep the zippered windows and doors open about 6 inches from the closed position (They are all screened) and you will have excellent ventilation and privacy.

Customer service said it's okay - "The unit will operate well in the environment you have described. The air being removed from the bathroom will be considerably cooler than the attic which will reduce the fan temperature as it passes through the fan."Regardless, you should install attic ventilation at the same time. 130 and higher is too much and damaging to your roof.

No it does not have to be vented to the outside via a vent. Exhaust works fine within it's self.

Good day, I ran mine in a 28 ' RV for extra heat. Because it is unvented there is always a concern about low oxygen and excess carbon dioxide in a tight space. I had windows slightly open to vent. I was surprised how much condensation occurred on the windows too. It was nice and quiet. Always beware if the house is tightly wrapped in plastic that you have some ventilation good luck Mike

Not at all. No venting necessary. Just keep a window or two, cracked open a couple of inches.

Assuming that is 25' x 25' x 10', I believe 1 unit would be challenged if you're in Northern Alberta - checking some weather info for Fort McMurray (a guess), I see 'average' lows of -10 F and minimum lows of -30 F over the last 20 years (and -58 F for the long-term). I set mine at 45 F for a 24' x 30' x10' (12' roof peak) metal building (not that well insulated) in Texas and with +8 F ambients, it was on 45 minutes/off 15. I did buy 2 but only put 1 in service, as that was acceptable to me. Also, there are recommended minimum clearances of 34" top and 68" below for these units; a 10' ceiling and a 12" unit height means you're almost at minimums (34" + 12" + 68" = 114" = 9'-6") to start. With the radiant heat flux off these units, the area directly below (or directly facing if you mount the unit at an angle, as I did) will get hot, so depending on what you're using the space for, there may be issues with localized 'hot spots'. Having a method to keep the air in the building/room well-distributed is also important (I used 2 ceiling fans) for several reason. The unit will consume O2 out of the air - about 1 cubic foot of O2 per minute. There is a recommended fresh air flow in of 160 CFM for this heater (high, IMO as a Chemical Engineer, but I'd want at least 50 CFM), so proper ventilation is also a concern if your room/building is 'tight'. You can better evaluate your specific application, but I believe one 40,000 BTU/Hr unit would be marginal in that size building (unless very well insulated) in the climate I think you're looking at.

I would not advise it. Anytime you vent into a possible closed space such as an attic, you risk the chance of condensation and mold issues. Although ugly, if you purchase so extra flex hose, you can run it into another room for proper venting.

Yes it must be vented. We went right through the wall (insulated pipe of course) but you can vent through the roof if you want.

Yes air should move enough and is quiet running. I would ensure vent in/out hole was there.

Yes it can; there are ducting kits available. I purchased the unit for wall-mount and use a charcoal filter, but you can get the ducting kit as well to vent through a wall or ceiling/roof

The ARC-14S can be set up to vent into a ceiling or attic space. Since the air intake hose is designed to bring in fresh air from an outside source, we do not recommend installing the intake hose for a non-window set-up. The intake hose can be capped and the unit will function like a single hose portable air conditioner. An additional exhaust hose and hose connector set may need to be purchased if the included hose will not reach the ceiling/ attic space. Please note that we do not recommend extending the exhaust hose longer than 9 feet. Please feel free to contact us at customer.service@whynter.com.
