So I purchased the Honeywell MN10CESWW 10,000 BTU Portable Air Conditioner because the house I rent at doesn't allow me to install a window unit and it cools great. But I am an asthmatic and I find that it makes it difficult to breath and I start coughing. I turned it off after running it all day and noticed that the air was heavy and had an odor to it. I do not have the hose attached to drain the water because the unit claims it has a built in dehumidifier but I'm wondering if that is the reason I'm having difficulty breathing the air after it runs. I also made the room air tight with foam tape because the window and door was pulling air in from the rest of the house and outside when the unit was on. Maybe the lack of air new air coming into the room is also causing me discomfort? Basically I need to know, is this normal? Should I run the dehumidifier and drain to help or is my unit possibly defective? Should I keep the room air tight or let new air come from the rest of the house through the door like it was before I installed the foam tape.
Help please :(
