ASSEMBLY & INSTALLATION
INSTALLATION
When the unit is operating as an air conditioner or dehumidifier, the window kit and exhaust hose must be installed.
When the unit is operating in fan mode, the window kit and exhaust hose do not need to be installed .
MOUNTING THE EXHAUST HOSE
•
Choose a suitable location, near a grounded electrical outlet and suitable window or door. Remove
packaging and locate components.
•
•
Extend both ends of the exhaust hose approximately 6 inches.
Screw the REAR and FRONT Exhaust Hose Adapters onto each end of the exhaust hose. Once both
adapters are attached, attach the Window Kit Adapter to the REAR Exhaust Hose Adapter.
•
•
•
Connect the FRONT Exhaust Hose Adapter to the back of your portable air conditioner.
Attach the Window Kit Adapter to the window kit.
For maximum efficiency bend the exhaust hose as little as possible once installation is complete.

SINGLE HOSE WINDOW KIT INSTALLATION
This installation is OK
The is a poor installation

When installing the exhaust hose, try and keep it as flat as possible. The less angles and bends
in the hose, the better the unit will perform. If bending or an angle is necessary, use single 90°
angles like the pictures above. Multiple bends will decrease performance and efficiency
