I was never really bothered by it..but I want it up now…

any idea what I can use?

I heard acetone?
Grout is a cementitious product. Acetone is a solvent for plastics, epoxies, and other similar items, but not grout. You may be able to get it off of a porcelain finish or enameled steel, but I’m not optimistic. If your tub is acrylic or gel-coat fiberglass, you’re screwed.

Not to be a smartass, but it’s always better to tape off and protect than attempt to remove afterwards. Been there, done that, learned from it.

I’m looking to get a portable air conditioner for my apartment. I can’t seem to find any details on google.com. I was wondering how easy the setup was since you have to vent the hose through the window. Also, how much electricity it uses? I found a few with a EER rating of 9.0 (is that any good)? Thanks for looking!
cant get a window unit? i hear the portable units dont work so well

I have a portable one since our HOA doesn’t allow window units. It works great for those few hot days we get. I set up the window panel that comes with it to fit in my bedroom window and then went to a plastics store and had a second, clear, one made for the sliding door in my living room. Not sure how much electricity it uses, but my bill has never been noticably higher, even when I’ve run the portable AC for several days in a month (some days for 12 hours).
wait a minute…… you have a home owners association but dont have central air conditioning? thats like having a bouncer check ID’s at burger king.

the EER rating is Energy Efficiency Rating.

im not familiar with portable units but central A/C’s are no longer allowed to be manufactured with a S(easonal)EER of less then 13. at least not around here. and they go as high as 23 SEER, on central air units.

do a search online, im sure you can find something that will explain them all to you in detail. as far as what EER’s are available and how much electricity they use.

look for watts. the more watts it uses, the more it costs to operate. but the more it should cool.
I have one. It works pretty good but it generates a TON of heat.

thats because they are heat exchangers…

Yes and?

That is something someone should consider when buying a portable air conditioner.
you are using it incorrectly then.

it does not generate heat.
it removes heat and moisture from the air of the area you want air conditioned. and it dumps that heat and moisture in another area.
if you have this portable ac sitting in a room and dumping that heat back into the same room, you are only removing the moisture from the air. that is if it has a drain line running somewhere or a bucket you need to empty.

it should be pumping the hot air outside. otherwise you are paying a bunch of money for a very large dehumidifier.
