Just ordered two for our large casement windows upstairs in the kids bedrooms. Got an estimate for double hung windows to replace our nice casements so we could run portable air conditioner units in their rooms and needless to say, this product here is the best fiscal solution by far. Kids have been sleeping in the basement for the last three summers. God Bless you for creating this product! I priced custom cut plexiglass through Lowes and it was slightly less expensive but with thinner glass and no nicely cut hole. Cheers!

Forget measuring the hose, just use the hose connection hole that's already in the window kit (every ac should come with a window kit) as a template for the plexiglass.

Looks like a great product. If I have an extra screen that I’m not using that fits my window, could I simply super glue your insert to the frame of the screen and use the screen’s spring locks to hold the screen and insert in place? Thanks.

Purchased: August 2022 - still works GREAT! ru-vid.comUgkxxsUnXhGsSJLim_XnMHyQK0u3XVaW-CGn I live in a studio and during the summer it gets scorching hot - really old building with no ac units. I can’t express how EASY it was to install.This unit has been a life savior during the summer and some days during other seasons where it can still be a bit warm at night. In this small place is my friend, a husky, poodle mix and myself. We need AC - lolI don’t use the dehumidifier option - I’m not sure if it will leak in my house, since I did not install the small draining hose that came with it. May look into it late but I don’t worry about much humidity in the apartment.I don’t understand why the negative reviews since all things mentioned, I personally did not find issues with. Definitely worth it!

Hi, thanks for an exceptional, informative video! I have a Class A RV with a fixed window (not a casement window or window that opens). It's a small window. I can remove the window casing to have access to remove the window. Can I replace the fixed window glass with your clear acrylic to mount my portable AC exhaust hose?

@JennySnowy
@JennySnowy 12 дней назад
Oh man, so with windows that open like that, you can get plexiglass the same size of the frame, that fits into the groove of the window probably with foam tape to create a seamless and protected edge, and cut out a hole for the hose to attach into. It will be clear, better working and better looking than the cheap fabric cover. I only know this because I use a portable air conditioner and I go down a rabbit hole of all the information out there when I get invested into finding the right one for me.

Do you have any suggestions for a material alternative to block sunlight/people from seeing in? The room I am looking to cool has my gaming PC in there, so I prefer to be able to dim the room and importantly I don't want such an expensive easy to carry item visible from outside. In fact if you're willing to make such a custom insert I'd be happy to order from you.

Is it safe to vent through a screen? And someone said to use Lexan instead of plexiglass do you have an opinion? Thank you for your video
@Thommadura
@Thommadura 11 месяцев назад
No - Do not vent through a screen. THAT would allow the hot air coming from the Air Conditioner to flow around and back into the room along with Humidity. YOU CAN - if you do not need to see through the window - replace the screen with a thin piece of Plywood or fiberboard - but Paint it to protect it against the weather.

Hello, have you tried this with a Midea duo-hose system? They told me it wouldn't work in casement windows. But I don't see why an insert with opening cut in won't work. A friend has the same windows I have and his LG (single hose) vents perfectly. Many thanks.

For those we typically do the same method, replace the outside screen with the plexiglass panel. We could make 95" happen, but shipping might get a little crazy. Send me an email and I'll get you a quote: info@martinsonmanufacturing.com
