Window Bracket Installation:

It is recommended that this unit be installed close to a window for proper venting. This window kit is designed to fit most standard sliding windows that can be opened and is at least 19.7" (inches) wide (bracket can extend to 38.2"). If your window size is outside of these parameters, the bracket may be cut shorter to fit.

Difference between Air Conditioners & Air Coolers:

Air Conditioner Uses

  • Air Conditioners use refrigerant to cool and take moisture from the air.
  • Air Conditioners are created to handle a wide variety of environments to cool.
  • Air Conditioners change the air temperature in a room.
  • Air Conditioners will decrease the humidity in the area they are being used.
  • Air Conditioners work by circulating cooler air to lower temperatures.
  • Air Conditioners use more energy.
  • Air Conditioners are generally louder than Air Coolers.

Air Cooler Uses

  • Air Coolers evaporate moisture to create a cooling effect.
  • Air Coolers perform best in hot, dry climates.
  • Air Coolers make a room feel 4 degrees - 6 degrees F cooler.
  • Air Coolers will increase the humidity in the area they are being used.
  • Air Coolers work best when circulating outside air throughout your home.
  • Air Coolers use less energy.
  • Air Coolers are generally quiet.
What about ventilation?
Portable ACs use either a single hose or dual hose design. In cooling mode, single hose PACs remove hot air from the room, and then expel the hot air out the one hose. In cooling mode, dual hose PACs bring in air from outside through one hose, and expels warm air outside through the second hose. In both cases cold air in cooling mode flows through the unit's vents into the room.
Are there certain types of windows that are not suitable for PACs?
Casement windows are quite unique in design and functionality so PACs do not have window kits that can completely cover the gap for these types of specialty windows.
Can I leave the window screen in during installation?
The screen may not interfere with installation, but for better releasing of hot air out the window, it is better to remove the screen.
How do I know how many BTUs are required to cool my space?
A BTU (British Thermal Unit) is a standard unit of energy that measures the amount of heat per hour an air conditioner removes from a room. The larger the room, the higher the BTU requirement. Below, are some general guidelines. However other factors – such as the number of open doorways, a south-facing window with continuous sunlight, or a room with high occupancy – can require a unit with a higher BTU rating than the average guidelines.
