What air conditioning tools are needed for connection?

This answer depends on if the air conditioner is portable or permanent. With a portable air conditioner you need a hose (if equipped, this comes with the free standing air conditioners) to vent out the hot air. But with the air conditioner that sits in the window you need a screw driver, screws and plastic curtains that go around the air conditioner to block off the rest of the window. On a permanent air conditioner that is built in the house it is best to have a professional install it because they are licensed to do so and will be equipped with all the tools needed.

According to portable air conditioning suppliers, Mobile Air, all air conditioners have to be vented. But, there are different ways to "vent" the heat. The first way to vent is using water-cooled air conditioners. This type of unit uses water to cool the heat generated and requires a water source and drain.
