For background, I’ve been looking to get a portable A/C for my bedroom until I can get a permanent unit installed, which will take time. Unfortunately I don’t have a window, just a sliding glass door. Would it be bad if I got a portable A/C and just pointed the vent tube into the hallway? Is there any hazard beyond dust?

Ok let’s NOT open the magic box. There very harmful chemicals in a AC, house or car or anywhere there’s AC. But don’t worry it’s safely sealed in side ” we don’t want to let it out to see”
We can make cold with compression of said chemicals the byproduct of compression is heat and a lot of heat. So we need inside cool , we’re going to have to exhaust the heat. Depending on what AC unit type we have will exhaust the heat differently.
So we are not getting rid of heat from inside our home. FYI open a window on a shady side of the house ” if it’s windy it won’t help much and about 30 min’s should be ok to close the window. turn the AC on the pressure from the AC blowing cool air inside will help push the warm air out which will help cool the home down faster.
Disclaimer I tried to explain it to a 10 year old, being Science and all. I hope this help take some misconstrued information from the AC world.
BTW the frig works on the same principle.
