By By RICHARD SHAWEmery County Progress publisher
What exactly should the policy be for selecting a public defender?
Patsy Stoddard, the editor of the Emery County Progress wrote an article on Nov. 15 concerning the selection of public defense attorneys to work cases in Emery County. Local attorneys that have provided the service for years were selected, and as a conflict attorney (one who takes cases where the main public defenders might have a conflict of interest) another Emery county lawyer was selected.
The idea of bidding out the public defenders job is a good one. It gives lawyers in the area a chance to compete in the process and may turn up some real savings for the county involved. But I have some questions, and it isn't just about Emery County's process, although some of what happened there brings to mind problems that have arisen across the state.
Most of the public know little about the law unless they have had to deal with it. The general public's information about criminal courts generally have to do with watching one of the many "Law and Order" shows on television that show the prosecutors and the police side or something like "Harry's Law" where being a public defender for those that can't afford high priced lawyers is labeled almost as a crusade. Television news also adds some knowledge. But few understand the process of public defense well, how it is paid for or what part it plays in a rural county's process.
Imagine yourself with little or no assets, arrested for a crime which you may or may not have done. Then take the state average of about $400 that is spent by a county to defend you with a public defender. Does that seem adequate to protect your freedom?
Just ask yourself, how long does $400 last when you hire an attorney, even an inexpensive one for any kind of matter? The answer is not very long.
So one of the issues in dealing with hiring private attorneys to be public defenders is cost. County attorneys have budgets as all county managers do. Their budget must include the cost of the prosecutors as well as the cost of public defenders. They want the best deal for the money they have. That's understandable and commendable from a taxpayers point of view.
But what price should we put on a person's guilt or innocence? What price should we put on one person's freedom or their reputation in the community if they do not have the money to muster for their own defense attorney?
In Utah, the counties pay the cost of public defense, plain and simple. There are no real guidelines as to how a county should select public defenders. Emery County Attorney David Blackburn mentioned in his remarks to the county commission during the hearings on hiring public defenders that the American Civil Liberties Union has threatened to sue counties who hire attorneys with little criminal defense experience. During one of the county commission meetings he said he had met with them last year and asked them not to sue the county because he would work on a good way to select their public defenders who had experience and rule out those who don't. Those would seemingly be the young attorneys. But the ACLU has also alluded to the fact that they are also not too happy about hiring those who are not criminal attorneys, such as someone with a corporate law background or family law being hired.
So the fact is where the state fails to spell things out, someone else, through the vehicle of the courts using lawsuits or the threat of lawsuits, will. This is the case in rural counties and their use of private attorneys as public defenders.
Many in the public disparage the American Civil Liberties Union for some of the cases they have taken on over the years. The organization was formed to protect American civil rights, and sometimes, no matter who you are, and depending on your opinion on things, they seem to end up on the wrong side of the argument. They are an organization that likes to stick their noses in (and poke their fingers into) areas in our government that many will not challenge nor question.
From my point of view in no way is that a bad thing. Questioning government practices and how it is run is one of the ways we have to get things that are wrong, corrected.
In August the ACLU released a report called "Failing Gideon" that basically said that the public defender system, particularly in rural Utah was not serving the public the way it should. It was a condemnation of the system that is used by most counties to not only select attorneys to be public defenders, but also how the system works after an attorney is hired.
Now it's easy to look past this kind of report. Many consider the ACLU a crackpot organization and many more would also say "who cares" if they have never been poor and in trouble with the law. But one needs to remember the adage that if one person's rights are neglected, all our our rights are lessened.
Here are just a couple of the points the report makes and how I seen them as real problems in our rural counties.
*County attorneys in the state routinely help select the public defenders that they face in court after they are hired. They also often negotiate the terms of the public defenders contract. Problem: isn't this a conflict of interest? The county attorney has a budget he must stay within, and he is going to work toward doing that because he must. Is he going to pick the attorney that will represent the defendents the best, or the ones that will make deals more often, because that saves money? The report says that most counties spend three-five times as much on the prosecution as they do on public defense. That is only for the attorneys working on the case. The prosecution not only has more money to work with for lawyers but they also have the use of other services that the defending attorney would have to pay for such as investigators, police and other auxiliary services.
*There are no systems in place to track caseloads or the quality of representation that clients receive from the public defenders. Problem: admittedly, in this business, the public defenders often make enemies of their own clients if they don't get them off. But somehow, some way, I think the effectiveness of attorneys who are paid to defend the less fortunate in our society ought to get some kind of report card from the people they serve. How do we not know that they only meet with their client five minutes before arraignment and court? How do we know if they are doing what their clients really want? We often dismiss cries from defendants about poor representation as sour grapes, but maybe we shouldn't.
There is a lot more to the report (it's 95 pages long) and these two points address only a little of what the ACLU points out. The report can be found at acluutah.org if you want to read it for yourself.
I, in no way want to disparage who was selected to be public defenders in Emery County. That is not what this is about. Both the firms selected have handled public defense in the county over the years and have done the job they were asked to do.
I recognize that in some ways Emery and many other rural counties find themselves between a rock and a hard spot on this. But the point of this piece is about the system and how it is operated. The county admitted they had not bid out the job of public defender for years. In fact, apparently, no one can remember the last time it was done.
That in itself is a question and a problem, because a protocol to do so is not really established. Bidding out legal services is very different from getting a bid on a county vehicle or on a construction project. Counties do not have to follow the same guidelines on low bid. As Blackwell pointed out in the meeting they do not follow those kinds of bidding procedures for professional services.
In this case the county attorney felt the bids that were submitted were too high, so he negotiated to get them lowered. That is a thing that did bother me about the local process as it was reported. This negotiation was done in the time period between the bid opening meeting and the meeting where the commissioners actually selected who the public defenders would be. That negotiation was done with two of the three firms that had placed the bids. Why weren't all three given the chance to submit new pricing? Had the third firm already been ruled out?
Am I wrong or are only the commissioners supposed to make that decision in a public meeting?

There are a number of things parents need to bring to home to their children for each to be a participant in bringing peace to the world. Obviously, how the parents do so is different at each age level. When your family is made up of several different ages it means doing a variety of things at different times. If the issues that prevent or build a peaceful world are always within the consciousness of a parent, anytime one comes up is a good time to make a brief connection for children. They then begin to do so themselves.
That doesn't mean necessarily that the things to develop peaceful attitudes will be done by dividing the family. When a parent has time with one child of those of close age level there can be opportunity and time to develop awareness in away suited to that age. However, when all family members are together, a different dynamic takes place no matter what age the action may be most suited for.
For example: When do you have conversations about any of the important things related to making this a peaceful world? Hopefully, your family eats a meal together most days of the week, although I know many do not today. This is one good time for those issues to come up in conversation as they occur or are pertinent to family issues.
Those families that have a regular family meeting night could decide to talk about some things related to peace as part of their time together each week. In those conversations, as the children become older and can understand better the issues of hunger, violence, discrimination, war, etc., the discussion will deepen. The younger children will get what they can at their own level in these conversations. This is the way the younger children do with every subject. They also learn faster because they have all these "teachers" by way of parents and older brothers and sisters.
The general idea of talking about peace; what it really is; what brings it about; is basic to everything else we might do to teach children to be peacemakers. But that must not be the only thing we do. Sometimes the family needs to seek out ways to act for peace and so develop a peaceful people for the future.

MSNBC's Lawrence O'Donnell visited Staten Island University Hospital Friday to speak to doctors and hospital staff at morning rounds, after a Staten Island Rewrite on The Last Word became a source of pride in the often-overlooked NYC borough.
O'Donnell has been an advocate for Staten Island since Hurricane Sandy devastated much of its shoreline in early November. He visited the island shortly after the storm to survey the damage and ongoing relief efforts, which were largely organized by locals in the community.
In a Last Word Rewrite segment on Nov. 1, O'Donnell spoke about the hardy spirit of Staten Island, emphasizing that most New Yorkers know very little about the city's largest borough by geographic size:
"To see Staten Island—all of it," he said, "would be to rewrite your understanding of New York City. It is the place in New York City where wild deer run across roadways. It is not the New York you know. It is a place apart from New York City, five miles over the water on the ferry from Manhattan—and, in many ways, it might as well be a world away. Staten Island has almost everything that the rest of New York City has except skyscrapers. But it has much more."
O'Donnell went on to plead for state and national assistance, saying that, for once, "Staten Island doesn't want to be ignored. Tonight, for once, Staten Island needs help from City Hall. But Staten Island needs more than New York's help. Staten Island now needs America's help."
According to New York Assemblyman Michael Cusick, who represents District 63 in Staten Island, the Rewrite was passed around the borough virally and became a source of dignity for many who were experiencing hardship. At Staten Island University Hospital, the segment was shown at the emergency command center to doctors dealing with a large influx of patients and who had gone without sleep for many hours.
Staten Island University Hospital President Anthony Fererri wrote O'Donnell and invited him to speak at the hospital's grand rounds. "I'm just here to say thank you to you," O'Donnell said in his remarks, "Because I have a sense—an imperfect sense—of how bad things were here, but what I know for an absolute fact is that it would have been much much worse with you, indescribably worse without you. You will never be thanked enough."

I never wore uniqlo over this last year in Japan, because it's the most boring, ubiquitous stuff out there. Returning home to Portland, though, I feel like uniqlo flannels are going to become my campus go-to. They've got a great fit, layer easy, and top off raw denim nicely.

SPRINGFIELD, Ill. (AP) — Illinois children are required to attend school at a younger age and young adults seeking driver's licenses must complete training under several new laws effective this week.
Children must enter kindergarten by the time they are 6 years old under one new law. The previous requirement was 7 years old. State officials say that might mean higher costs for some schools.
Another new law requires students to learn CPR and how to operate machines used for emergency heart problems.
Additionally, those aged 18 to 21 will now have to pass a six-hour driver's education course before receiving a license. The previous law allowed adults to receive licenses without training.

Transforming learning through global collaboration
Let's celebrate! We hope that you'll celebrate what is happening by sharing! Let's talk about ongoing improvement! Let's rejoice when we've had successes (they get you through the times when things don't go as planned.) Ongoing improvement is a mindset, lifestyle, and habit.
Views: 70
In my FCCT personal journal I shared about the powerful practice of the Japanese Language Sub-department at my school of having a "program" graduation every year. Students feel a great deal of ownership in the event and it seems to serve the purpose of elevating expectations for the younger students as well (who are invited to both attend and share what they have learned from their "elders" in formal speeches).
The celebration occurs due to acknowledging that as educators we are always on a continuous journey towards self-improvement. There is no failure only learning. Pat Riley, once coach of basketball team LA Lakers, would tell an incredibly talented team that one's goal should to be to improve 1 percent per week. I think schools need to create a culture where it is ok for students to make mistakes and encourage gradual development. In high stakes testing it is all or nothing and students are under tremendous pressure to perform at their highest level continuously. The metaphor of a journey is important to note and taught to students. It does not matter how you started but how you finish.
Teachers have to model this behaviour in his or her classroom. He or she has to allow for mistakes to be made and teach students how to learn and move forward.

Have you considered tax? I graduated two years ago with a Major in Managerial Economics and a minor in Accounting and was able to find a job in Multistate Tax. A lot of the issue we work on (unity, instant unity, nexus) straddle the IB hemisphere.
I have applied for a few jobs that focused on tax. However, I have not really had any tax-related coursework other than what is normal for finance majors, which was mainly managing taxes throughout a project when calculating NVP.
I really do not know if my interests lie within that field without doing more research about it.

By COREY BLUEMELStaff writer
Huntington Mayor Jackie Wilson instructed the city council about open and public meetings. "The state regulations say we must have this training session," stated Mayor Wilson.
She told the council the Utah State Legislature enacted the Open and Public Meeting Act for every state agency and political subdivision to follow in conducting the people's business. It is the intent of this law that their actions are taken openly and their deliberations are conducted openly.
The definition of an open and public meeting is the convening of a public body when a quorum is present and is intended to include all gatherings of the city council or other committees of a municipality. This includes anything that looks like the public's business if they are supported by public funds. It is important to remember that a quorum of the body must be present.
Meetings which constitute a closed or executive session are those that discuss an individual's private information, collective bargaining strategy sessions, litigation discussions, sessions that discuss purchase, exchange or lease of real property, or discussions regarding the deployment of security devices and investigative proceedings. Before a closed session may be called, the body must be called into an open meeting with at least two thirds of the membership present.
All open meetings must be recorded, in addition to keeping written minutes. Closed meetings must also be recorded and written minutes kept.
Public notice must be given before any open meeting that is held. Notice is considered at least a 24 hour notice with postings and publication in a newspaper in the jurisdiction of the public body. The agendas of the meetings are to be posted in advance of the meeting unless the meeting is an emergency meeting with unforeseen circumstances requiring that meeting.
In other business conducted by Huntington City Council, the line item donation to Emery County Community Theater was approved. Linda Daley of the ECCT was on hand with the request.
The council also reviewed the policy of cost to open a grave site at the cemetery. The current ordinance states that the cost for non-residents is $275 as opposed to $125 for residents. Many people who have been longtime residents of Huntington may have relocated to rest homes or to live with children and their wish is to be buried in Huntington at their passing. The council approved to reduce the cost of a grave opening for non-residents to $200. Mayor Wilson also explained that people who have lived in Huntington for most of their lives and are only out of the city due to reasons associated with age are still considered residents of Huntington.
Mayor Wilson updated the council concerning the anticipated water situation for this summer season. The area stands at 51 percent of normal and is losing 2 percent each day that there is no significant precipitation. "The water situation is very dire. The north end of the county will have secondary water sometime around April 15, and the south end will probably not be until near April 27. Everyone is very concerned about the water situation and restrictions will be put in place," said Mayor Wilson.

Canada falls to Cuba at Pan Am Cup women's volleyball tournament
ROSARITO, Mexico – The Canadian women's volleyball team are in an almost must win situation in order to advance to the playoff round after a hard-fought loss to Cuba on Saturday in round robin action at the Pan Am Cup.
The Cubans, ranked sixth in the world, took the match 21-25, 25-19, 25-21, 25-19 in one hour and 39 minutes. Canada, which lost in five sets to Argentina on Friday, drops to 0-2.
Top scorers for Canada were Tonya Mokelki of Weyburn, Sask., with 16 points, Sarah Pavan of Kitchener, Ont., with 15, team captain Tammy Mahon of Holland, Man., (photo) with 11 and Jennifer Hinze of Vancouver with 10. Both Pavan and Mokelki earned three of their points on service aces.
"We came out very well in the first set then struggled with the same elements as we did in Friday's match," said Mahon. "But we fought hard and never got down throughout the match and if we keep that approach we're going to be O.K. We've got plenty of talent to quickly turn this around."
Cuba leads the A pool with four points (2-0), idle Argentina is tied with the Dominican Republic (which defeated Brazil in its opening match Saturday), at two points (1-0 each) while Brazil and Canada are winless in their first two matches.
The Canadians play Brazil on Monday and the Dominican on Tuesday. The top-three in each of the two pools advance to the playoffs which start June 24. The U.S., leads pool B with four points after a victory Saturday over Puerto Rico.
"The day off is going to give us a chance to rest and also see how we can match up best against Brazil," said Mahon. "We just need to keep focused on our side of the court and continue to get a strong contribution from all 12 players."
This is Canada's first tournament in 2010 as they ultimately prepare for the world championships this fall in Japan.
Canadian roster for the Pan Am Cup women's volleyball tournament June 19-26 in Tijuana, Mexico.
Players; Tammy Mahon, Holland, Man.; Tonya Mokelki, Weyburn, Sask.; Ashley Voth, Winnipeg; Kyla Richey, Roberts Creek, B.C.; Jennifer Hinze, Vancouver; Marisa Field, Kelowna, B.C.; Tasha Holness, Calgary; Sarah Pavan, Kitchener, Ont.; Carla Bradstock, Richmond, B.C.; Janie Guimond, Bécancour, Que.; Julie Young, Red Deer, Alta.; Lauren O'Reilly, Langley, B.C.

After completing his studies in architecture, his friendship with Ettore Sottsass and Alessandro Mendini took him to Milan at the end of the Seventies, where he became one of the main activists in the provocative designer group Memphis. His approach to the creation of new styles in design helped to play an important role in the Memphis movement, but by the late 1980's, de Lucchi had moved on to more traditional designs. After working with Artemide to develop some of their lasting bestsellers, de Lucchi created his Produzione Privata label, which creates small series of his designs featuring exquisite craftsmanship.View other products by Michele de Lucchi

Systems Analysis and Integration
NREL's systems analysis and integration team evaluates the impact of emerging technologies on efficiency, performance, cost, and battery life for a full range of vehicles—conventional vehicles, hybrid electric vehicles, plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, all-electric vehicles, fuel cell vehicles, and other alternative fuel vehicles.
Using a suite of simulation and analysis tools, NREL conducts technical analyses of promising vehicle technologies to find cost-competitive solutions that maximize energy savings and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
NREL leverages detailed travel data from the Transportation Secure Data Center and other sources to evaluate fuel savings opportunities by:
- Predicting the most efficient route for a particular vehicle to follow
- Identifying hybrid or plug-in hybrid electric vehicle control strategies to improve efficiency over a given route
- Exploring wireless power transfer for on-road electric vehicles, as depicted in the e-roadway animation.
NREL's systems analysis and integration work supports a wide range of transportation and hydrogen and fuel cell research. Learn about NREL's hydrogen systems analysis project.
NREL also works with other research organizations and industry partners—such as Chrysler, Ford, and General Motors—to develop and implement prototypes of promising technologies identified through simulation and systems analysis, and to evaluate the prototypes in laboratory and on-road vehicle tests.

Information for AS Representatives (print PDF)
Governance Information for ASGCC Representatives
What is my role as an AS representative on a committee?
• You are a member with full voting rights. So speak up, ask questions, vote.
• Unable to attend a meeting? Assign a proxy, your proxy will have full voting rights. Your proxy cannot be a member of the committee for which you need a proxy for.
• Chairs and/or the minutes recorders will call for a meeting. In other words: just because the Blue List states "3rd Wednesday" of the month does not necessarily mean that committee is meeting.
What is the appointment process?
Each semester the Governance office requests appointments of AS representatives to Governance Committees, a spreadsheet is provided to the AS VP of Administration.
The AS body appoints reps to Governance Committees.
Once appointed it is recommended to send the chair an email and "cc" the minutes recorder (if applicable). This is to introduce yourself and to ensure the chair has your email. The Blue List provides an email link to the chairperson, links are blue – you may have to look up the minutes recorder's email.
AS VP of Administration fills in the spreadsheet and forwards it to the governance office.
Governance office emails each of the committee chairs and minutes recorders the spreadsheet with an important notice which states:
"To assure AS reps are notified of meeting please 1) email the AS VP of Administration, 2) obtain the student's email and 3) hard copies may be placed in the ASGCC mailbox."
What is the Blue List?
The Blue List provides general information for each committee. It helps volunteers determine which committees may be of interest to them and to determine which committees best fit their schedule.
The meeting time listed is a guide, information posted can be confirmed by contacting the chair of the committee.
Chairs are responsible for notifying the Governance office of any changes to the information listed such as membership or meeting times.
The chair or minutes recorder will notify members of the committee when a meeting is scheduled. In other words "3rd Wednesday, 2:00pm, AD 121" may not necessarily mean there is a meeting.
What resources may help me understand Governance at GCC?
Information links on the Governance webpage:
• Blue List – committee mission statement, meeting time, location, membership, link to chair's email
• Best Practices – guidelines for committee members, committee chairpersons, resource members
• Committees – this is where minutes of governance committees can be accessed; the hierarchy can also be found here
• Governance Document – the "constitution" of governance here at GCC
• Governance Update – the report includes all motions reported by governance committees
Governance Quick Links
The Governance webpage this page gives you access to minutes of the various governance committees, as well as other resources pertaining to governance.
This list of governance committees including meeting times and locations, voting members, non-voting members, and committee mission statements.

By GARY ARRINGTONSports Reporter
The Emery Spartans needed a game and the Timpanogos Timberwolves were available so the schedule was set, unfortunately the undersized Spartans suffered a homecoming defeat 35-6.
The Timberwolf quarterback set the stage as he was bigger than anybody in the Spartan lineup at 6'5" and 225 lbs. The Wolves also had defensive linemen that were listed at 285, 290 and 230 and an offensive lineman listed at 320 lbs.
The Spartans Josh Eden, a sophomore that stands 5'6" and 140 lbs, received the opening kick-off and returned it 56 yards to the Timpanogos 34 yard line. The Spartans were able to pickup one first down before they turned the ball over on downs. The Timberwolves scored on their first play from scrimmage as Jace Bramell took it 73 yards around the left side for a score.
Three of the Spartans next four series ended with interceptions and the other with a punt before the Spartans scored on their last series of the opening half as they marched 59 yards and scored on a pass from Bowie Jeffs to Isaac Bawden. The Wolves had also added two more touchdowns in the secnd quarter as they intercepted a pass and returned it for a touchdown and recovered an Emery fumble at the Emery 16 yard line and scored four plays later on a 10-yard pass.
The Spartans had the ball for five series in the secnd half. They punted twice, fumbled twice and turned the ball over on downs once. The Timberwolves scored in the secnd half on a run of 59 yards and a pass of 57 yards.
Head Coach Kevin Reynolds after the ball game said; "We have got to quit killing ourselves, we need to quit making mistakes, we should be over that." He also added "We knew that they were going to be a lot bigger than us but we underestimated how quick they were going to be. They had a couple of real speedsters."
The Spartans ran the ball 29 times for 35 yards, 26 of those yards came on a fake punt that Joey Bernard, a junior, took to his right and picked up a first down on the series that they scored. The Spartans were 12 for 36 in passing for 88 yards.
The Spartans are at home this Friday night as they host the North Sanpete Hawks at 7 p.m. The Hawks defeated Lehi last week and Timpanogos earlier in the year.

What is a Portable Air Conditioner?
Portable Air Conditioners (PACs) are increasingly becoming one of the most popular forms of home air cooling. PACs are simply standard air conditioning units that are designed to extract heat from an area via a refrigeration cycle. They are placed on wheels, meaning they can be easily moved from location to location, which makes them ideal for spot cooling individual rooms or cooling areas normally unsuitable to standard window air conditioning models. It is highly recommended that you use PACs in conjunction with central air conditioning for an efficient means of supplemental cooling for areas that may have an extra heat load (such as a sunlit room) or rooms that are poorly vented. Though these units have exhaust tubes that must be vented, they are truly portable in the sense that they require no permanent installation.
Most PACs come with a window venting kit, which easily slides into almost any window. The exhaust hose is easily fit into the appropriate space in the window kit, and the unit is ready to go. PACs consist of one "box" that holds both the hot and cold side of the air conditioner in one and they use the exhaust hose to expel heat. For condensing air conditioners, there are several ways to get rid of the water that the air conditioner condenses out of the air. Some units collect this water in an internal drain bucket, which requires the owner to occasionally drain the unit manually, install a pump to push condensate water out through a tube in the drain hose, or adapt for direct drain off. However, the newer models produce no excess water at all, evaporating the condensate water automatically through the hot air expulsion hose.
How They Work
Portable air conditioners operate through a fairly simple process. Warm air from the surrounding area is drawn in through special inlets on the portable air conditioner unit. This air is circulated through the unit and is cooled by evaporator coils that have refrigerant running through them, and then the air is blown out through the front. Remaining hot air that was drawn through the unit is expelled and vented through the back with an exhaust hose.
Through this process, air is continually "cycled" in such a way where warm air in the area is continually drawn through the portable air conditioner unit and replaced with cooler air. This means that the room is consistantly cooled until it reaches the desired temperature setting.
Types of Portable Air Conditioner Units
Residential Units
Residential PACs are generally used for cooling homes, apartments, and smaller areas up to 500-525 square feet, and they range between 5,000-14,000 BTU. These models are a single hosed units, meaning they have one hose running from the back of the portable air conditioner to the vent kit (more information about vent kits found below), where hot air can be expelled. As a note, exhaust hoses are required to vent a portable air conditioner. Residential PACs generally require the use of only a single hose since BTU requirements are smaller and creation of negative air pressure is not a factor when in use.
Commercial Units
Commercial portable air conditioners generally use a double hose design, which provides more cooling power for large areas and a cooling BTU of over 14,000. In this double hose design, one hose is designated as the exhaust to vent hot air, while the second hose is used as an intake to draw in additional air (usually from the outside). This additional intake hose is required to help draw in extra air needed to offset "negative air pressure" in the area being cooled. Higher BTU units cycle airflow in larger amounts to expel hot air at a much faster rate, which creates a negative air pressure in the room. The solution is to have an intake hose bring in additional air to stabilize this negative air pressure.
Heat and Cool Units
A heat and cool portable air conditioner is a unit that provides both cooling and heating options. The heating function works by reversing the normal process of how PACs cool. Instead of expelling hot air and blowing cool air out, heat/cool PACs expel cool air and blow out warm air. Of note, heat and cool portable air conditioning units are not meant to be designated heaters and should not be used in environments where the ambient temperature falls below 50°F.
Units with Dehumidifier Functionality
Some portable air conditioners have a special "dehumidifier" mode. While almost all PACs expel some moisture from the air through the exhaust hose, a few have a dehumidifier mode and can act as designated dehumidifiers. While turned on, these portable air conditioners cool as normal but also expel quite a bit of moisture through the exhaust hose.
Portable Air Conditioner Accessories
Like central air conditioners, PACs have replaceable filters that clean the air as it is being drawn through the unit. The replaceable activated carbon filters usually last for three (3) months and should be replaced routinely.
Vent Kits
Portable air conditioners are primarily vented through a window kit to the outside. Included with almost all PAC units, a window vent kit usually consists of a window plate and an adapter for the plate. The adapter is used to fit the hose into the window plate which is then set into the window frame. Note that window vent kits are designed for use in vertical and horizontal sliding windows.
In instances where venting through a window is not possible, consider other options like venting through a drop-ceiling or subfloor.
Energy Efficiency
One of the biggest advantages of using a PAC is the ability to cool a specific area in the home because these units have caster wheels that allow them to be easily moved from room to room. While central air conditioning cools all rooms evenly, portable air conditioners can provide more cooling for the warmest areas or even act as a suitable replacement for central air conditioning. By not having to turn down the thermostat to comfortably cool all living areas, one can save a considerable amount on energy and electricity.
Choosing the Right Portable Air Conditioner
If you've decided a portable air conditioner is the choice for you, here are some important considerations:
- Your BTU Requirements: This is probably the first and most important consideration. Unlike other air conditioners, PACs are designed to move around the house from room to room with ease. This means that you should try to get the most appropriately-sized air conditioner for the room that you will be using the PAC in, but be mindful of all the uses that you will need the unit for when you try to estimate your required capacity. For one-room applications, you ideally want to get a unit with a capacity as closely matched to your needs as possible. When determining BTU requirements, the two most important factors are room size (in square feet) and heat load. Heat sources that can affect the heat load are sources such as cooking appliances, sunlit windows, electronic devices, etc.; and factors such as room humidity, ceiling height, insulation and more can also play a role. The chart below can help you to determine the BTU requirements you may need for your space:
- Your Drainage Requirements: Do you want a unit that can be drained continuously? Do you mind emptying a drainage bucket a few times a day? Are you willing to pay more for a unit that exhausts the condensate water through its exhaust hose so you don't have to worry about drainage at all? These are common questions you should ask yourself about using a PAC.
- Your Venting Needs: Though most units have 5 inch diameter exhaust hoses, some units have 3 ½ inch exhaust hoses. Note that exhaust hose lengths and window venting kit sizes differ as well.
- The Unit's Energy Efficiency and Energy Requirements: You should be mindful of the EER of the air conditioner that you choose. A higher EER is better and often costs less in the long run than a less-efficient unit. Most PACs run on a standard 120-volt socket.
Once you've decided on the above factors, you'll want to think about other features that can add to the convenience of your future portable air conditioner:
- Air Filtration: All models come complete with an air filter, and better models have filters that can clean your air during operation.
- Remote Control: Remote controls come with remote controls to control the unit from across the room.
- Manual vs. Electronic Controls: Manual models can be simpler to use and they often offer superior timers to electronic models, but electronic models usually offer more advanced features.
- Noise Level: Though many of today's air conditioners are quieter than older models, you still might want to consider their noise level. Noise levels are often given in decibel (dB) ratings. The higher the decibel level, the louder the unit is; every 10 decibel increase is an increase in the sound pressure by a factor of ten (for example, 60 Decibels is 10 times louder than 50 Decibels and 100 times louder than 40 Decibels).
- Timer and Sleep Function: Timers allow you to save energy by running the air conditioner at set times. For example, you might set the air conditioner to run when you anticipate being at home, which helps you to not waste energy by cooling your room when no one is there. Sleep timers also help to save energy by cooling less after the air conditioner has been running for a set time. This way, you set the air conditioner to run while you are going to sleep and it continues running while you sleep, but at a lower level (i.e., the temperature in the room is allowed to rise a bit) while you sleep.
- Air Output: Almost all models have at least two different settings for airflow. You might want more settings to increase the versatility of cooling. Also pay attention to the Cubic Feet per Minute (CFM) rating, which is a measure of the volume of air blown. The higher the CFM, the more airflow the unit kicks out.
- Heating Options: Some portable air conditioners can heat as well as cool. This can be useful in the winter time, enabling you to use your air conditioner year-round.
- Louver Adjustability: The more ways you can adjust the louvers (up/down, side-to-side), the more options you have for directing airflow. Also, some unit's louvers can be set to the swing setting, so they blow out cool air from several different positions.
- Air Conditioner Physical Size and Appearance: Some air conditioners are smaller and/or more pleasing to the eye than others.
Quick Window Installation
Portable air conditioners come with installation instructions and kits for installation into windows. You should first follow the installation instructions that come with your PAC, but here are a few additional tips for what a standard installation might entail.
PACs can be installed in many places that conventional air conditioners cannot, which is one of the main advantages of portable air conditioners. However, the easiest installation is into a standard sliding window. Due to the design of the venting kit, it is equally easy to install one of these units into a standard double-hung window or a side-to-side slider window
- Position the portable air conditioner near the window.
- Connect the exhaust hose to the rear of the air conditioner.
- Connect the other end of the exhaust hose to the window venting kit.
- Open your window and place the window venting kit in the window; adjust its length, if necessary. Close the window on the venting kit
- Close the window on the venting kit, plug in the PAC, and turn it on.
That's all there is to a simple window installation!

|In response to Re: low hot water pressure
: I have a moen faucet in my shower.I turn it on counterclockwise.I have plenty of cold water pressure but when I start to add the hot water the pressure decreases.When the water is finally warm enough to shower in there is not enough pressure to activate the shower.The house is hooked up to a well with a max. pressure of 50 p.s.i. and a low of about 30 p.s.i..I would appreciate any and all suggestions any one might have.Thanks.
I would remove the cartridge to clean and inspect. It sounds like some sort of blockage on the hot side. Either debries in the cartridge, the valve body, or the pipe from the water heater. Terry
