Ventilo: Peer-to-peer air conditioning, simple and secure

Welcome to Ventilo, the first marketplace dedicated to the exchange of air conditioners between individuals, based in Rotterdam. We created this platform to meet a growing need: cooling your home without breaking the bank, while promoting a circular and local economy. Whether you have a portable, fixed, or reversible air conditioner you no longer use, or you are looking for an affordable cooling solution for the summer, Ventilo is your solution. Our model is simple: we connect sellers and buyers, and we take a single commission of only 10% on each transaction. This low percentage allows us to cover our operating costs, platform maintenance, and customer support, while remaining accessible to everyone. To guarantee peace of mind in exchanges, every payment is fully secured via an escrow system. Specifically, when you buy an air conditioner, the amount is held in our secure account. The seller only receives the funds after you have confirmed the good receipt and proper functioning of the device. This process eliminates the risk of scams and disputes. We also verify ads to prevent abuse. Ventilo is the promise of a trustworthy, transparent, and human market, at the heart of Rotterdam, but open to the entire region. Join our community and participate in more responsible air conditioning consumption. How to book?

How it works? Sell or buy with complete confidence

Using Ventilo is incredibly simple, whether you are a seller or a buyer. For sellers: create a free account in a few clicks, then post your ad by accurately describing your air conditioner (brand, model, BTU power, condition, year of purchase, any defects). Add clear photos and set your price. Once the device is sold, you receive a notification. You arrange for hand delivery or shipping (we recommend direct handover to avoid transport costs). Payment is secure: the buyer deposits the funds on our platform. As soon as the buyer confirms receipt and satisfaction, the amount is paid to you within 48 hours, minus our 10% commission. For buyers: browse ads sorted by category, location (Rotterdam and surrounding areas), or keyword. Each ad includes a device history and photos. When you find the right air conditioner, contact the seller via our integrated messaging system to ask questions or arrange a meeting. You pay directly on the platform by credit card or secure transfer. Your money is protected until you have received the device and verified it works correctly. If a problem occurs (non-conforming product, non-functional), our mediation team intervenes to find a fair solution. Ventilo also offers a 14-day money-back guarantee in case of an unresolved dispute. We pride ourselves on making every transaction smooth, fast, and stress-free. Thanks to our reciprocal rating system, you can also evaluate the reliability of other users. Find a device.

Why choose Ventilo? Economy, ecology, and proximity

Ventilo is not just a simple sales platform: it is a true ecosystem that combines economy, ecology, and local solidarity. First advantage: the economy. Buying a used air conditioner on Ventilo allows you to save up to 60% compared to the new price. The seller, for their part, recovers money on a device that was gathering dust. With our fixed 10% commission, we remain the cheapest on the market. No hidden fees, no subscription. Second advantage: ecology. The production of a new air conditioner generates a significant carbon footprint (metal extraction, refrigerant gases, transport). By giving a device a second life, you reduce electronic waste and production demand. Each air conditioner resold on Ventilo is one less device in the landfill and preserved resources. We also encourage repair and maintenance: on our blog, you will find tips to extend the life of your air conditioner. Third advantage: proximity. Based in Rotterdam, we know the specifics of the local market: increasingly hot summers, sometimes poorly insulated homes, need for quick solutions. Ventilo promotes neighborhood-to-neighborhood, person-to-person exchanges. You can meet the seller, test the device before buying, and avoid delivery costs and unnecessary packaging. Finally, our team is available in Dutch and French, because we know Rotterdam is a cosmopolitan city. We also organize seasonal workshops to learn how to install and maintain your air conditioner. Ventilo is the smart choice for a cooler, fairer, and greener summer. Available equipment in

Secure payment and user protection: our priority

At Ventilo, security is at the heart of our service. We know that mistrust can hinder transactions between individuals, especially for technical goods like air conditioners. That's why we have implemented a robust secure payment system, coupled with comprehensive protection for both buyer and seller. The mechanism is simple and transparent: when you buy an air conditioner, you make the payment directly on our platform via a certified payment provider (compliant with PCI-DSS standards). The funds are immediately placed in escrow in a third-party account. The seller is notified that the payment is secured, which reassures them about the buyer's solvency. You then receive the device (during a hand delivery or after shipping). You have a period of 7 days to inspect the air conditioner, plug it in, and verify its proper functioning (ventilation, cooling, noise, no leaks). If everything is in order, you confirm receipt via your customer account. The funds are then released and paid to the seller within 48 hours. In case of a problem (device not as described, non-functional, or different from the photos), you can open a dispute directly from the platform. Our mediation team, composed of air conditioning and consumer law specialists, intervenes within 24 hours. We analyze the evidence (photos, messages, videos) and propose a solution: full refund, partial refund, or return of the device. If the dispute cannot be resolved amicably, we activate our satisfaction guarantee or refund within 14 days. For sellers, we also guarantee protection against false claims: the buyer cannot obtain a refund without a valid reason. Finally, all personal and banking data is encrypted and stored securely. Ventilo is GDPR compliant. You can therefore exchange with complete peace of mind. Our goal: zero scams, zero stress. Find a device

They rented in Rotterdam

"I rented an air conditioner for my apartment in Delfshaven during the July heatwave. The service was impeccable: fast delivery in less than 24 hours, installation explained in French, and a quiet device. I was afraid of the noise, but even at night, I slept perfectly. The AC really saved my exam revision. The only small downside: the security deposit was a bit high, but it was fully refunded within five days. I highly recommend it for poorly insulated studios in Rotterdam."

"We rented two air conditioners for our house in Kralingen during a family party. The equipment was modern, with a remote control and timer. Delivery was punctual and the salesperson spoke Dutch and English, which made things easier. The AC made the stay pleasant for the grandparents. The only downside: the exhaust hoses were a bit short for our atypical windows. We rigged an extension with a plastic bag, but it worked. Good value for money for a short-term rental."

"In the middle of summer, my attic studio in Rotterdam-Center became an oven. I rented a portable AC for two weeks. The online ordering process was simple, with secure payment. The device was powerful and quickly cooled my 25 m². Customer service was responsive when I had a problem with the remote control: they exchanged the unit the same day. The price was fair for a rental. The only downside: the compressor noise bothered me for professional calls. But for sleeping, with the night function, it was very good. I would rent again without hesitation."
