Abstract: An air conditioning apparatus and system for an automobile having the operating unit in the trunk, including cool air tubes leading up to and opening through the back shelf behind the back seat, to the interior. The air is taken in from the exterior through the floor of the trunk and driven over the cooling element, and the hot air from the unit is exhausted out to the exterior. A drain tube lets the condensed ambient vapor drain from the unit to the exterior. The main operating unit can be placed in a relatively small space, such as on the ledge at the front of the trunk. None of the parts are in the front under the hood, except the beginnings of the electric lines leading from the alternator.
