Re: How do you guys keep your garages cool?

It may be more pleasant to deal with dripping water on the floor than 120 degree heat in the garage.
It doesn't need outside air, but it does need to dissipate the heat extracted from the indoor air. The condenser component is hanging outside just for that reason.

Which is why I went with a portable unit. A trip to the hardware store and a dryer vent later I should be in business.
