Window Kit Installation Instructions
Preparations for Installing the Window Kit
You must vent your portable air conditioner when running it in cooling mode. Your unit includes a window exhaust kit that can be used to vent the unit out of a window.
Before you begin, make sure that you have all the parts necessary for installation and that a suitable location is picked.
Window Kit Parts list:

If you have multiple windows, choose one that is near an electrical outlet that will be able to provide sufficient power to your unit. See the power requirements listed on the product label printed on the side, or on the back of your portable air conditioner.

Note: You may need to contact your electrician if your room’s circuit is not able to power your unit.
Your window kit can be installed on a horizontal or vertical sliding window as shown in the following images and instructions. Follow the instructions for your desired window kit installation.

Installation Preparation
Before you begin, make sure you have all the parts necessary for installation and that you have selected a suitable location.
Location
When choosing a location, please keep in mind:

• The air conditioner should be placed on a firm, level location in order to minimize noise and vibration. Your appliance has casters to aid in placement. Use caution when rolling on carpet and do not attempt to roll the unit over any objects as this may result in  the unit tipping over.
• Never place any obstacles near the air inlet or outlet of the unit.
• Allow at least 20” of space from the wall for efficient performance.

Window Slider Kit Preparation:

• Your window slider kit has been designed to fit most standard vertical and horizontal window applications.
• If the window opening is less than the minimum length of the window slider kit, you may trim the slider panel B. (Trim the side farthest from exhaust port.)
• Slide Panel A inside panel B and adjust to the correct width. To secure the panels together, press the Window Slider Kit ‘Bolt’ into the appropriate slot on the edge of Panel A.

Installation in a Double Hung Sash Window
Step 1
Cut the foam seal to the proper length and attach it to the window sill, and window frame as shown in the image to the left. Your window kit includes four (4) adhesive backed foam strips for this step, two that are short and two that are longer.

Note: If desired, you may choose to attach the adhesive foam seal to the window slider kit instead of the window sill and frame.

Step 2
Attach the window slider kit to the window sill. Adjust the length of the window slider kit according to the width of the window. Use the window slider “bolt” to secure the slider to the correct width. Open the window sash and place the window slider kit on the window sill then close the window sash securely against the window slider kit.

Note: If needed, you may trim the adjustable window kit if the width of the window is less than 26.5”.

Step 3
Cut the foam seal to an appropriate length and seal the open gap between the top window sash and the outer window sash.

Step 4
If desired, secure the security bracket to the window frame. When installed properly, the bracket will prevent the window sash from being opened.

Installation in a Sliding Sash Window
Step 1
Cut the foam seal to the proper length and attach it to the window sill and the window frame as shown in the image below. Your window kit includes four (4) adhesive backed foam strips for this step: two that are short and two that are longer.

Note: If desired, you may choose to attach the adhesive foam seal to the window slider kit instead of the window sill and frame.

Step 2
Attach the window slider kit to the window sill. Adjust the length of the window slider kit according to the width of the window. Use the window slider “bolt” to secure the slider to the correct width. Open the window sash and place the window slider kit on the window sill then close the window sash securely against window slider kit.

Connecting the Exhaust Hose

Step 1
Connect the Adapters to the Exhaust Hose
To connect the Window Exhaust Adapter (a) to the Exhaust Hose (b), simply extend the open end of the flexible exhaust hose so that you can thread the adapter into place. Rotate the adapter until tightened securely. Repeat this process for Hose Adapter (c) and tighten securely.

Step 2
Place the Unit in the Installation Location
Roll the unit towards the location where the window kit has been installed. Please ensure that the unit is at least 20 inches from the wall to ensure proper ventilation.

Step 3
Connect the Exhaust Hose to the unit
Align the hooks on the Hose Adapter (c) to the Exhaust Air Outlet on the back of the unit. Slide the hose downward and into place.

Step 4
Connect the Exhaust Hose to the Window Kit
Push the Window Exhaust Adapter which has been attached to the Exhaust Hose through the window kit hole and rotate until it is secure.
After you have installed the exhaust hose and window kit, you can plug in your portable air conditioner and power it on.

Notes About the Exhaust Hose

Your portable air conditioner is designed to exhaust condensed water that is collected from the air.
This water, in either gaseous or droplet form, will be expelled out of the exhaust port of the unit.
Please take this into account when deciding how to vent it.

1. The exhaust hose supplied with the portable air conditioner can be extended up to approximately 48 inches; however, for maximum efficiency, use the shortest length possible.
2. Try to prevent any kinks or bends in the exhaust hose. Kinks or bends may trap exhaust air which can radiate heat into the room or potentially cause the portable air conditioner to overheat and shut itself off.
3. The exhaust hose supplied with the portable air conditioner has been specifically designed for this air conditioner. Do not lengthen the hose by adding additional hoses or attachments. Do not replace it with any other hose.

Warning: Longer hoses are not recommended.

The exhaust hose must be installed or removed in accordance with the usage modes:
A: You must install the exhaust hose if the unit is in Cooling Mode.
B: In Dehumidify Mode and Fan Mode, the unit can operate with or without the exhaust hose attached. If you choose to operate the unit without the exhaust hose in these modes the air conditioner will be more portable. However, because the exhaust hose  removes hot air and moisture from the room, more cooling will occur in Dehumidify Mode if the exhaust hose is attached.

Note: The exhaust hose may be adjusted according to your installation requirements. However, it is recommended to keep the exhaust hose length at its shortest allowable length for the best airflow efficiency.

Draining the Unit

When the portable air conditioner is in cooling mode, or dehumidify mode, it will remove moisture from the air. The condensed water from the air will be collected in an internal reservoir and will be evaporated and exhausted out of the exhaust hose. However, in very humid conditions, the internal reservoir may fill completely. This causes the air conditioner to turn off to avoid overflowing the internal reservoir. The fan will continue to operate.

Continuous Drain

During dehumidifying mode, remove the upper drain plug from the back of the unit. Attach the drain hose to the continuous drain outlet and route the end of the drain hose to a suitable drainage port.

Manual Drain

During cooling mode, once the water level of the bottom tray reaches capacity the unit will beep several times and the digital display on the control panel will read “P1” to indicate the water must be manually drained. Carefully move the unit to a drain location then remove the bottom drain plug and connect the drain hose to the drain outlet. The portable air conditioner will now drain through the drain hose. Please note that this unit has no drain pump; all water will drain with gravity only, i.e., only “downhill.”
Once the unit is fully drained reinstall the bottom drain plug and restart the machine until the “P1” symbol disappears.

Specifications

New Portable Air Conditioner BTU’s
You may notice that the cooling capacities (in British Thermal Units or BTU’s) labeled on portable air conditioners (PAC’s) are now lower than on models produced prior to October 1, 2017. This is because the labeling on new productions of PAC’s must follow a new federal test standard that was established by the Department of Energy: 10 CFR 430, subpart B, appendix CC.
The SACC rating shown on your new PAC is a result of this new standard. Models manufactured before 2017 were tested under a different standard (ASHRAE) that produced a higher cooling capacity output. While the SACC BTU’s are lower than the previous ASHRAE BTU’s, the construction and cooling capacity of this model(s) remains unchanged. Both the SACC and ASHRAE ratings are included for consumer comparison.

What is SACC?
SACC, or the Seasonally Adjusted Cooling Capacity, is a rating in BTU/hour that represents the weighted average performance of a PAC in a number of test conditions, some of which may be more extreme than the average use case, which is then adjusted to  account for the effect of infiltration air and duct heat transfer. The factors included in the SACC calculation are why the ratings appear lower, even though the model(s) has not changed.
