    *It’s: Pretty. Quiet. **Fastly.Cool** in my room. Works wellLittle of hassle to install was TOTALLY worth it. I’m loving it so far. I recommend watching the installation video and taking it slow~*

    1:27 what LG doesn’t mention (which is very important) is that absolutely NO air can escape from the mounting bracket/diffuser. otherwise, hot/humid air will be released from the gaps, increasing humidity, which won’t allow the A/C to cool efficiently. Think about it like this. If there were a hole in the hose, some of the hot air that the unit was trying to put outside would be released into the room. The same thing happens if there are any air gaps at the attachment points.
    buy some insulating tape from your local Lowe’s or The Home Depot, apply it around the attachments of the mounting bracket & diffuser, and you should be good.
    also, make sure the window is sealed entirely, and that no air can get in or out. air escaping from anywhere other than the A/C vent will increase humidity.
    Lastly, this air conditioner is not portable by any means. it really needs to be permanently installed if you want the best performance out of it.

    I have a horizontal/Left to Right sliding window & had this installed & cooling in under 2 hours, including trimming & installing a piece of screen to go over the grating b/c I don't have a screen in that window. I could have used extra foam but w/ rigid insulation I had on hand trimmed down I made it fit quite snug. In 15 minutes my room has dropped 10 degrees easily. I watched this video at least twice.

    I absolutely loved the portable units I had for my mobile home when my central air unit went out. I had two units that cooled the living room, kitchen, and bathroom and slept in the living room. One was 12000 btu's and the other was 10,000 btu's. The only drawback is that they do make a lot of noise. Mine weren't this brand though.

    you need to insulate the expanding hose which blows out the hot air.
    otherwise, it's like having a radiating heater and ac on at the same time.
    insulate using towels or blankets wrapped and taped tightly, covering
    the entirety of the hose. 2 to 4 inches of insulation is adequate.

    • @valerievalerie5897
      @valerievalerie5897 4 года назад

    • @takezoaudio
      @takezoaudio 4 года назад +3

      @@valerievalerie5897 i use an old thick blanket to wrap the expanding hose from end to end, using tape to keep it from unraveling. the thicker
      the material used for insulation, the better it keeps the heat from leaking into the room. you can use old newspapers, towels, blankets
      or even insulation found in hardware stores. just remember, you're goal is to keep the hot expanding hose from heating up the room.
      the insulated hose should be cool to the touch when the ac is running. if it is still warm, i would wrap another layer until it is cool to the touch.

The air coming out seems cool and my next question is how much of hose can you leave in order to touch for temp ? I discovered late last night mine is one of 3 models recalled contacted LG but not optimistic about contact. I’m going to watch carefully and continue to use. Right now hose exposed say 1 1/2 inch each end and is warm but not hot. Thanks for your help

    • @GuillaumeB7
      @GuillaumeB7 4 года назад +3

      Yeah, you basically need you to make your own window pannel using plywood, and then screw the provided window panel into it to be able to attach the hose. Especially if you have windows higher than 50". Even if it's inconvenient, the advantage is that it will provide better insulation from heat and sound than what just installing the slim panel could provide (especially with a 1-inch plywood). It also makes you able to install a vent cover on the outside. Just make sure to paint the plywood (ideally in white if the sun shine directly on it during the day) so that it does not rot.

    @melissasmidt222 Год назад +8

    FYI- the diffusers DO NOT screw on to each end of the hose. Worst design ever. However, if you unscrew the black grate , fully extend both ends of the hose, and leverage one side in first and very carefully use needle nose pliers to pull the other side up... you'll secure each diffuser. Making a seal is critical as the hose will vibrate out of the diffusers within a few minutes of usage.

Which means I haven't paid rent or mortgage since then. If you buy a condo, there is going to be an HOA. They take care of the yard around the property, water, trash etc. I'm at that age where I don't want to start paying rent somewhere else or buy a new house with a new mortgage. I'm rent & mortgage FREE!! Plus, houses are not cheap(especially in a nice area), I'll past away first, before I pay off on a 30 year mortgage loan.😀

    I think the dual hose ones do better when it is a lot hotter like 100°F but the single hose units perform better at lower temperatures e.g. 85. There is a video somewhere on this where they did tests. So for where I live I would be wasting money to buy a dual hose unit because the single hose will perform better when the heat isn't so much.
    I don't have a problem if air is being sucked in from the other side of the home as that will be the cooler shady side. I suspect though that the air coming back in would not be as hot as the air being expelled.
    Also, many people like me do not have windows that slide either vertically or horizontally but swing out vertically or horizontally instead. So it would be even more difficult with dual hose. It is already tough with single hose and you have to avoid the expelled air coming back in by getting wind direction etc right. I think a dual hose could suffer that problem just as much with hot air that is expelled coming straight back in.
    The window units seem to be better than both portable types but again they need the vertical sliding windows. One thing I'd like to know is if LG make portable units with more BTUs e.g. 18,000 or 24,000? 12,000 may only be good for smaller rooms.

      I called their toll free number, gave them my model number and they e-mailed me the owners manual. My model has two drains the one on top is for dehumidifier, one on bottom is for ac. You can call them. There are two ways to drain it. Also, the filters need to be cleaned about every two weeks.

      The only idea I can think of for stealth is to mount a bike type rack on the back of the van and put the generator inside an insulated box on the bike rack. Or inside an insulated trailer.
      A soft start unit is needed to keep from the breakers from tripping when the AC turns on.
