We love long road trips through beautiful countries. These are some of the gorgeous scenery we experience on these long drives. Hope you enjoy them and get inspired to experience them with your family. We travel a lot all over the world. Through our travels we have come to love many global dishes ranging from Asia to Africa to America to Europe to Pacific and to the Caribbean. We love recreating those delicious recipes at home especially over the weekends with our own twist. We relive our travels through homemade healthy and delicious food. We hope you find these fusion recipes delicious! Being a busy household, we use a lot of stuff, do a lot of DIY and buy a lot of gadgets. With these videos, we hope to share some of our experiences with household stuff which you might find useful. Have a look and let us know what you think.
Do you think it would reduce steam enough from the shower to stop the fire alarm going off? Yesterday I had a hot shower, opened the door to the hallway and the fire alarms for the whole building were triggered 😂
I used two of the insulation kits. One on the inside and one on the outside of the screen. I put clear tape over the area that I had to cut out to vent the A/C. I also put an insulating sock over the exhaust hose as that can transfer heat back into the room.
Thanks for the video. I just hooked up my new portable A/C to my screen using your ideas. I screwed the plate onto my screen (vertically). I put the plastic window insulation on the outside of the screen and also on the inside of my screen. Total cost of materials was under $20. With the plastic insulation on both sides of the screen it really cuts down on the heat transmission. I also put an insulating tube/sock over my hose to cut down heat transfer as well.
So, did you put the insulating film on the outside of the screen, put the screen on and then put more insulating film on on the inside? Just curious as I have this same issue and I don't know if I want to do plexi or if I want to do this.
@@thisGuy481 both sides. But it is light stuff and noise comes through easily. Plexiglass is probably the nicer option. And if you want to switch to just a screen for outside air it would be better to have the plexiglas and just swap out for the screen.
thank you for the video. I just got an Insignia today, but haven't hooked it up yet. I live in the U.S. so my unit looks different and it's white - I love the silver/gray color of yours, wish I could have had that choice :) Tomorrow I will have some help getting it out of my car as it's very heavy! And hopefully, that hose won't look too ugly in my LR window, as it's the first thing you see when you walk in te front door! It's either a portable A/C or get an LG through the window installed -- I'm trying the portable first ... to see how it goes, etc ... Like noise and if it reall cools my place down. You made your video back on June 9th and wondering how you like it now? Is it cooling to your satisfaction? How's the noise level ? BTW- when watching the video I couldn't hear you when you got right up close where the unit/fan was --- as your mic was picking that up rather than your voice:) Thanks again!!
I don't use the drainage hose. You can attach it to the AC and put it out through the small hole in the window plate if you want but it's not necessary. What I do is keep the drainage outlets closed with the screw-on caps so that water doesn't leak. You can empty the water every month or so by opening the cap. If you live in a very humid place, you can do it more frequently or attach the hose.
