Some kiosks are hardwired into stores’ electrical systems. Outdoor machines are bolted into the concrete foundations and contain a coolant that is supposed to be disposed of in an environmentally safe manner

I'm guessing it's for the outdoor units so the discs don't get damaged. They wouldn't need any AC indoors.
