Yes; Being as they already have a self clean cycle I'm guessing , then it's not really an over reach in costs to program a 700 deg cycle in where the door stays unlocked. Not something I'd want to use in the summer for sure.

There are also a number of "portable" mini splits available over in Europe but only one here called Forestair. They were sold at Costco or direct from the company here in Canada but the reviews aren't all that great. https://forestair.ca/en/serie-mini-anglais

Mine is a Danby two hose unit. Gosh it must be near 15 years old now. I bought it to cool the bedroom upstairs since we can't have central air and have a mini split for the main floor. Much less expensive than having another minisplit or two installed up there. It works well enough and I...
