This thing is working amazing, holding the whole room at 68° with the TV in place right up against the AC. It's the prettiest thing I've ever built by a long shot but proved to me that this method works great and now I need to refine it.
WTG Jerry. As a chiller and computer room ac tech with 38 years of experience I give this hack my seal of approval! I have seen the IT guys in the server rooms get pretty creative with spot coolers to keep server racks cool.
Dude! Thank's so much! I did a similar mod like this to my AC in my wife's room, and was wondering why it wasn't doing so well. Then I realized I needed a baffle to block air re-circulation! I have a similar setup to yours actually. This HELPED me so much! Thank you! My wife's happy too!
Just so you know that not a T square, that is a framing square, a T square is in the shape of a T and is mainly used with drywall work, framing squares are L shaped.
I've been searching how to duct a window AC for days. Googled it...checked Lowes and everything. And this guy just showed me how! Planning to bring a tent to an RV campsite and have an airconditioner in it. Thanks man. If a man is thinking about this and has a channel, then he is a REAL-WORLD solution expert! More power Barnacules!
Hey Jerry just a little tip if you open the box cutter you should find that the blade is reversible and the rest of the blade might be sharp, sometimes there are even extra blades hidden inside depending on manufacturer.
It's awesome! I'm still trying, two summers in, to ghetto mod my portable AC so it can work at all. Funnels hot air with great volume to the outside and it's impossible to do with windows opening outwards at the bottom frame. Any gap will just pull hot air back in and recycle; giving zero net cooling. I'm renting so using a hole saw through concrete might be frowned upon.
I got it for how quiet it is, and also the condensation hasn't become a problem yet. However, I can easily solve it by spraying the inside with lacquer to seal it.
I'd be more concerned about the window unit not moving enough air therefore the coil will ice up, liquid refrigerant sent back to the compressor which will burn it out
I own an HVAC company and you just lost 20 percent of air because the wedge you made is not curved in a circle motion so you should use a diverter from an HVAC supply house and use flex duct so you don't lose your air flow plus your causing your head pressure to climb and make the compressor to slug liquid
warlock 39 who cares if his 100 dollar window banger slugs. I'd be more concerned about the water damage to the house from the nice iceblock he's got coming his way
I would have definitely pointed it away from the TV to reduce chances of condensation inside the TV casing. Rounding the corners won't help much, plus with the reduced restriction from removing the grille he's probably keeping the air resistance pretty close to its designed spec.
If you watched his video when he installed it you'll know that that ac unit could cool down a space 5x larger then his room. So i think he's getting enough airflow.
Funny thing is that when I was younger, I used to build a pillow fort out of my bunk bed and sleep in it. Only issue is that it would get pretty hot in there, so what I would do is make tubing out of paper, tap them all together to the AC in the window, then place them inside each little part of the fort. It was really fun, and my little mind was proud. Its cool to see something like this made, enjoyed the video, and it brought out a bit of a childhood memory for me. :)
I feel like the best diy videos are the ones where after watching you feel like you can do the same thing a little better yourself. Also at least when diy things don't look perfect it totally looks like you made it!
I love these episode because it's not super professional but still works. Kinda like handyman from nerd perspective which I can appreciate and relate lol
Wouldnt it be better to suck the "hot air" from the top of the room in to the AC and blow the cold to the bottom ? I mean in germany our hot stuff goes to the top and he is sucking from the middle of the room.
Foam is a better insulator than plastic, so it retains the cold air until it gets shot out the outlet, and 3D printing a custom duct would have taken a lot longer than just maybe an hour total of cutting foam to fit as well as taping it to one color. Foam is also lighter so he didn't actually need that wedge to keep the foam up, but I guess now he can put stuff on it. On the other hand, using 3D printing, he could have made a more complex shape to have even better airflow, but again... Foam insulates better, and it's quicker. He could make a 3D printed plate to go over the outlet and make it so that he could fit some sort of tube for directional airflow, or even just extend where he wants the air to really feel cold =P
+Mies van der Lippe because to exhaust air from The house it would need to suck air into the house from somewhere else. The AC doesn't change the pressure of the room.
+Barnacules Nerdgasm why didn't you 3D print a cover instead? Also... Wouldn't that cold air flow mess with that FormLabs 3D printer on the other side of the TV while it's printing. Cheers
Hey Jerry- you're looking really good man! How is the weight loss going? You can REALLY see a difference in your face already. Keep up the good work man, we're all really proud of the progress you've made. How are you feeling lately? Hopefully you are much happier. You sound happy which we all like to see! Thanks for you do, we all enjoy seeing what you come up with. Thanks- Mike
cool video. Wish you did this while back when I was in a smaller room. Not sure if someone already commented on below but what if... you rigged the AC to blow cold air directly into your gaming rig. just curious if everything was air cooled or AIO liquid cooled, how much of a difference would it make?
this is super late but for anyone viewing this now, for cutting foam: you don't need to slice all the way through. you can slice halfway through the foam using any type of knife/razor and just using pressure to break it apart.
This was super helpful for me. I have a small bedroom and my central air vents are on the floor. That limits me on how I can rearrange my room.Now I see I can just make a custom one for the floor vent and my bed being over it wont be such a problem
Hey Jerry, just wanted to let you know that i am very happy your lifestyle change has worked so great for you, you look remarkebly better than you did a few months ago. Not just talking about the weightloss itself, but rather your whole appearence :) Keep going jerry, you can do this! Awesome video btw, really enjoyed it :)
I modded my window a/c unit by using a standard household thermostat. I place the thermostat across the room out of the direct airflow of the a/c unit so that it cools the room more evenly. To do this: Open your front bezel. Find the thermistor, cut one leg of it's wires. Then route the circuit through the cooling pins on your thermostat and back through the unit. You'll want to leave the thermister in the circuit. Set your A/C to its lowest temp setting, and then use the thermostat to control the temps. It tricks the A/C into thinking it's either very cold or hot in the room and cycles it on and off. Added bonus: you can use a programmable thermostat.
Zach Demand If you do anything scientific, such as physics, metric is by far superior. But for just eyeballing measurements, I find imperial to be better
I know this is old but now that it's 95° here in Florida I have to tackle the same project. I just want to say, you are adorable and hilarious and as I was thinking oh my God wow these two guys are gamers that hole up all day in a dark room, the little nerdsters. Then I saw your wedding ring and out loud all by myself in my living room I heard my voice say OH MY GOD, HE'S MARRIED?!???!! Not that you could never be married, of course. I mean no offense. Back to your diverter tutorial, I have the same setup with the TV in front and you gave me a few new ideas. Isn't this the most frustrating thing? Thank you again, and I hope you've changed the razor blade in your utility knife by now.
not effectiv use because the build (cost) volume is too high and a fail would really hurt. With foam he can just add peaces and redirekt the airflow as needed.
just a suggestion you could find the studs in the slope in your wall and attach a brakcet to attach the tv to the wall unless you need it right next to your computer setup.
As you have extra space next to AC in the window. How about a pipe connected to fan that is sucking hot air behind the computer units and pushing it outside? That way you don't get the warm air inside the room and AC unit don't need to work that hard.
Creates a better airflow, a ceiling fan would also help (Here in Texas a ceiling fan is a must to move the air around) Cool build, simple yet effective!
I'm only at the introduction so if it's mentioned later then my bad - but as soon as you mentioned the issue my immediate thought was why not get a ceiling down vesamount ?
i wonder if you could take a window A/C and set it up to duct the cold air into a PC and have the exhaust fans blow into the hot side, assuming you can combat condensation.
From programmer to Tim the Tool Man Taylor, nice. I always thought of learning stuff like this as well as mechanical skills so if there's a problem with my car I won't have to spend more money taking it to someone else.
you could use flexible dryer ducting and move the cold air to where you want like a remote vent. or water cool your pc with an external radiator outside the room.
yes i do know for all you trolls this is a old video! 1 helpful tip.....a pizza cutter works great for cutting thin pink foam and on the inside "reflectix" vapor barrier an a lil spray adhesive on the inside of the duct works great an prevents mold!
Try flipping to blow to the right . towards the control panel may work better because the TV will still be dumping heat behind it and into the wall and your foam. so it may lower your temps by not picking up the extra heat as it goes
I'm not to far away in Lacey WA, since its been getting colder ive been using folding at home to heat my room. I can dissipate about 500 watts of heat with my overclocled FX- 6300 and R9 285 and do about 200,000 points per day worth of folding, since every bit of power goes into heat i consider the folding to be free. And you can write a portion of the electricity cost of the machine off on taxes as well if you make sure to document things correctly.
You know, I'm a real generous dude so you can put the TV and some other expensive stuff in my computer room if you want..... 😁 Im not sure why, but I enjoy watching you do almost everything (don't take that the wrong way, or do).
Very nice hack, however from an engineering point I would be worried about the extra pressure your placing on the fan blades. Probably be ok but time will tell. Keep the videos coming!
This thing is working amazing, holding the whole room at 68° with the TV in place right up against the AC. It's the prettiest thing I've ever built by a long shot but proved to me that this method works great and now I need to refine it.
do another diy. :)
sticking your fingers together with mitre bond is half the fun
What happened to your diet/lifestyle change? I haven't watched your videos in 9 months, I expected you to be slim. You're fatter than ever.

keep comforting him to get fatter and fatter

and you believe him?
PLEASE FIX MY WIFE, GET HER BACK TO HER 20´S, I GOT FOAM AND CARDBOARD READY!
Happy Farmer ur going to need more than that :)
Berj Yacoubian yeah, some duct tape as well
WD 40 should do it.
If you cant solve your problem with a hammer then fuck it
Bailey Volkert I'm sure he does

why not 3d print a cover for it :)
Haha! Cannot afford a 3D printer
But, but, the prusa i3 ?
Just so you know that not a T square, that is a framing square, a T square is in the shape of a T and is mainly used with drywall work, framing squares are L shaped.
Yeah, the words that came out of my mouth didn't line up with what I actually was thinking.
Barnacules Nerdgasm don't take it personal, I work in construction and I'm a little OCD when it comes to what people call certain tools.
biker932012 I don't blame you I hate when people call a ratchet a wrench.
I was looking to see if someone made this correction before I did.. Lol, OCD here as well..
Ok so do u get everything right no, No one is perfect. Also haters that dont look at them self.
I've been searching how to duct a window AC for days. Googled it...checked Lowes and everything. And this guy just showed me how!

+barnacles nerdgasim this would make a great 3d printing project
Sure, but this looks like a prop Green Jelly or GWAR would use.
I was just about to say this, 3D printing ducts sounds like a pretty good idea.
Harrison Knockers RIP DAVE BROCKIE
Hey! That's pretty good!
I was going to suggest that! 3D print a piece to replace the foam.
Hey Jerry just a little tip if you open the box cutter you should find that the blade is reversible and the rest of the blade might be sharp, sometimes there are even extra blades hidden inside depending on manufacturer.
111k views building something out of foam and tape. I love RUclips! :D
It's awesome!
I'm still trying, two summers in, to ghetto mod my portable AC so it can work at all. Funnels hot air with great volume to the outside and it's impossible to do with windows opening outwards at the bottom frame. Any gap will just pull hot air back in and recycle; giving zero net cooling. I'm renting so using a hole saw through concrete might be frowned upon.
When are you going to add an old case fan to your duct to increase your cubit feet of air flow?
only thing you are missing is duct tape (but maybe I spoke too soon? I am only @ 4:14 right now lol)
do you have a video on that acoustic foam?
Why not 3d print the duct?
I've done that, your tape contraption will get wet(condensation) and it will fall apart, thats a very quiet window ac though
I got it for how quiet it is, and also the condensation hasn't become a problem yet. However, I can easily solve it by spraying the inside with lacquer to seal it.
Condensation only happens when hot air meets cold air, if there is no leaks/gaps for this to happen your good to go
Dont u have 3d printers? :P
I'd be more concerned about the window unit not moving enough air therefore the coil will ice up, liquid refrigerant sent back to the compressor which will burn it out
Keep an eye on the coil and nothing to worry about, doesn't seem to restrict the airflow hardly at all.
I own an HVAC company and you just lost 20 percent of air because the wedge you made is not curved in a circle motion so you should use a diverter from an HVAC supply house and use flex duct so you don't lose your air flow plus your causing your head pressure to climb and make the compressor to slug liquid

I would have definitely pointed it away from the TV to reduce chances of condensation inside the TV casing. Rounding the corners won't help much, plus with the reduced restriction from removing the grille he's probably keeping the air resistance pretty close to its designed spec.
I just get a bigger fan and blow air were ever you want , and a little refer for cold VITAMIN - R.
i though the same thing bit of flex would work well
If you watched his video when he installed it you'll know that that ac unit could cool down a space 5x larger then his room. So i think he's getting enough airflow.
It's not sad. Always be proud when you create something that is functional and solves a problem.
I would have mounted the tv on the wall between the window using an articulating arm mount. 4 Screws.. Done!
Thanks for the entertainment!!
Yep. $20 on Amazon. Done.
Paul Martin you missed the whole point of the video
Yep
Funny thing is that when I was younger, I used to build a pillow fort out of my bunk bed and sleep in it.

Has razor blade replaced bat knife?
RyanHu Batknife would be way too dull
would the 3200x1800 version be sharp enough?
Sean Griffey :D
I wonder how Batknife feels about Jerry shoving that razor blade into that foam...?
RyanHu bat knife is for unboxings
I feel like the best diy videos are the ones where after watching you feel like you can do the same thing a little better yourself. Also at least when diy things don't look perfect it totally looks like you made it!
+Iisakki Kaaretkoski i agree, it's why I show my mistakes.
The Jerry missed a "ladies" joke. He said it sets super ROCK HARD. :D
I love these episode because it's not super professional but still works. Kinda like handyman from nerd perspective which I can appreciate and relate lol
I honestly thought you were gonna 3d print something in this video.. xD this works great too
after jay leaves i see another piece of foam and a round duct running to under his seat great vid and a interesting solution to your problem.
You gotta 3D print something for that :O!!!
Now you can 3D print a duct...
Windows AC ? Will it run on my i3 laptop?
The best reason to watch this video is to see if Jay can keep Jerry in frame and in focus...
now that you have the proof of concept mocked up, you should 3d print a more durable shroud
+bexmister92 i might do this!
awesome! cant wait to see the video.
i think the insulating properties of the foam actually helps though
Wouldnt it be better to suck the "hot air" from the top of the room in to the AC and blow the cold to the bottom ?
I mean in germany our hot stuff goes to the top and he is sucking from the middle of the room.
Chris ImItReal Wouldn't it be better to cool the ceiling so that when hot air goes up it gets cooled, and the whole room gets a more even temperature?
Love this series, Jerry. I love that you're willing to just wing it on camera and walk us through your thought process.
#BringBackBatKnife
'T' squares are shaped like a T, hence the name, that's just a framing square
That's actually a framing square, lol glad to see you post a video, missed you keep up all your great work
Why didn't you want to 3D print a custom duct?
cause it will take 79 hours
No it wouldn't, not unless you make it 2 inches thick.
If it is only a couple of millimeters thick, just enough to be sturdy it won't, and it will also benefit by being more open for air flow.
Foam is a better insulator than plastic, so it retains the cold air until it gets shot out the outlet, and 3D printing a custom duct would have taken a lot longer than just maybe an hour total of cutting foam to fit as well as taping it to one color. Foam is also lighter so he didn't actually need that wedge to keep the foam up, but I guess now he can put stuff on it.

He could make a 3D printed plate to go over the outlet and make it so that he could fit some sort of tube for directional airflow, or even just extend where he wants the air to really feel cold =P
Was wondering the same thing too. 3D printed shell with a foam interior.
Fuckin love DIYgasm, this is the best vid series you've done since the maker space renovation, which was basically a diygasm
4K is on within 5 minutes! WTF RUclips?
this is slick. if i ever get a window AC unit all need to try this.
About half way through the video I realized he could also 3D print a really nice duct instead XD
You must have a really big 3D printer :o
LazerLord10 Well I mean he could 3D print it in parts and then Bondo, glue, or screw it together. 😊
Air Deflector on Amazon is less than $5. Probably spent more money on gaffers tape than it would have cost to just buy one.
Did you think about making the foam push left and right? Two triangles so you can hit both sides of the room?
damn just by removing the air directors i already noticed a difference, thanks
Barn is my personal quick set, I'm always rock hard when I watch his videos.
Why no 3d printer on that Barnacules
im getting goose bumps from those foam screeching
Please make more Codegasm!
That foam cutting sound sends shivers down my spine. Rather like nails on a chalkboard >.
Shouldn't you just get some dryer hose to get the hot air from your PC out of the room?
+Mies van der Lippe because to exhaust air from
The house it would need to suck air into the house from somewhere else. The AC doesn't change the pressure of the room.
Often AC's have a bypass to bring in some fresh air, that would be some real Jerry Riggin'
That could be good though to get some fresh air in the room.
Get some air circulation going so you don't even have to worry about farting in an enclosed space
+Barnacules Nerdgasm why didn't you 3D print a cover instead? Also... Wouldn't that cold air flow mess with that FormLabs 3D printer on the other side of the TV while it's printing. Cheers
10 out of 10 would watch something like this again
9:35, Jay looks stoned out of his mind
even though this way DIY I thought the production look pretty pro, well done Jerry!
I'm ashamed of how immature I am because when he said 69 I chuckled haha im 16 i cant help it haha
Im 20 and still chuckled heh
+berenan me two
im 29 and i chuckled :) Humor has no age restriction!
I'm 30 I didn't chuckle. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I'm 32. I didn't chuckle, but I did quietly think "69, giggity". :p Damn Seth McFarland invading my brain.
Hey Jerry- you're looking really good man! How is the weight loss going? You can REALLY see a difference in your face already. Keep up the good work man, we're all really proud of the progress you've made. How are you feeling lately? Hopefully you are much happier. You sound happy which we all like to see!
Thanks for you do, we all enjoy seeing what you come up with.

That's a framing sqaure Jerry.
Well done. You just help me out on my own diy project. I was thinking of a Garage apartment using a window unit to cool the apartment well done
I'm supersized you didn't 3D print that thing
Am I the only one who loves all his content? 😍😍
Shouldnt this be Jerry Rigged?

no CGI

It would cost alot of material and time, also it wouldn't make a very entertaining video imo
I love diy gasm and I definitely want to see more of it!
I dont understand why people use a tape measure measuring in inches, Millimetres are so much easier
0.0393700787 inches
It is standard in the US. Most standard measuring devices are in inches/feet here
And the people that use inches (like me) say that inches are so much easier.
Zach Demand If you do anything scientific, such as physics, metric is by far superior. But for just eyeballing measurements, I find imperial to be better
its all a habituation thing

#outofcontentideas-gasm
You're still watching...
hey i like this content Jerry
I definitely think YOU should try to remove your kidney at home.
Jay is the best cameraman NA!
has 3d printer, uses foam....
Thats great and perfect (for now)... so lets see how you do a 3D printed version that fits in the manufacturers slot.
Cyber-Freak
T SQUARE,,COME ON LEARN YOUR TOOLS MAN
ray rowe I agree. It's just a regular square. A T square is shaped like a T. Go figure.
A regular square, wtf is a regular square?..lol Its a Framing square..lol
DaTwistedOne1 exactly... its not a T square.
Did you consider moving the AC to the upper pane of the window?
shakey camera is shakey
he also "definitely" doesn't have multiple 3d printers to do this
not effectiv use because the build (cost) volume is too high and a fail would really hurt. With foam he can just add peaces and redirekt the airflow as needed.
Do it in multiple pieces for the fail rate
High base cost then cheap maintenance
just a suggestion you could find the studs in the slope in your wall and attach a brakcet to attach the tv to the wall unless you need it right next to your computer setup.
you should start by not saying "More Better".
+Stephen Turner it's technically grammatically correct.
As you have extra space next to AC in the window. How about a pipe connected to fan that is sucking hot air behind the computer units and pushing it outside? That way you don't get the warm air inside the room and AC unit don't need to work that hard.
This video really blows.
NeoVoodooChild I see what you did there.
Creates a better airflow, a ceiling fan would also help (Here in Texas a ceiling fan is a must to move the air around)
Cool build, simple yet effective!
actually thought this video would suck, but it was actually pretty fun to watch.
I'm only at the introduction so if it's mentioned later then my bad - but as soon as you mentioned the issue my immediate thought was why not get a ceiling down vesamount ?
i wonder if you could take a window A/C and set it up to duct the cold air into a PC and have the exhaust fans blow into the hot side, assuming you can combat condensation.
Saw a pic on instagram, knew a video was coming! :DD Cant wait to watch the whole thing
Ayy I wasnt the only one
From programmer to Tim the Tool Man Taylor, nice. I always thought of learning stuff like this as well as mechanical skills so if there's a problem with my car I won't have to spend more money taking it to someone else.
this is why i always suggest a dual tube AC system.
WAYY more efficient than these window units
you could use flexible dryer ducting and move the cold air to where you want like a remote vent. or water cool your pc with an external radiator outside the room.
Great video and tackles a problem I have my self in my room.
Hey barnacles how many watts does your ac consume? I have a lot of stuff plugged in and I'm afraid if I get a new AC it will trip the breakers.
yes i do know for all you trolls this is a old video! 1 helpful tip.....a pizza cutter works great for cutting thin pink foam and on the inside "reflectix" vapor barrier an a lil spray adhesive on the inside of the duct works great an prevents mold!
if you use a fan along with your a/c to circulate the air it helps alot.
Try flipping to blow to the right . towards the control panel may work better because the TV will still be dumping heat behind it and into the wall and your foam. so it may lower your temps by not picking up the extra heat as it goes
I'm not to far away in Lacey WA, since its been getting colder ive been using folding at home to heat my room. I can dissipate about 500 watts of heat with my overclocled FX- 6300 and R9 285 and do about 200,000 points per day worth of folding, since every bit of power goes into heat i consider the folding to be free. And you can write a portion of the electricity cost of the machine off on taxes as well if you make sure to document things correctly.
You know, I'm a real generous dude so you can put the TV and some other expensive stuff in my computer room if you want..... 😁
Im not sure why, but I enjoy watching you do almost everything (don't take that the wrong way, or do).
very helpful I didn't know that why my sitcom sucks was because of the loop thing that you mention
Very nice hack, however from an engineering point I would be worried about the extra pressure your placing on the fan blades. Probably be ok but time will tell.
Keep the videos coming!
Speaking of rock, rock hard. Great ass shot
Damn dude. Living in FL and I keep the house at 75-76, but a 70 degree room without AC sounds nice. I miss living up north....
good job man! that's actually really nifty. it turned out looking pretty nice.
that shot of jay. 10/10
How is it so hot in your house? Are you growing something in the loft?
Can the same duct made out of aluminium lower the incoming air temp? It's naturally cold and acts as a heatsink.
TBH I only watch Tech Talk And DIYGasm But I still love you
THESE ARE AWESOME! Very funny! Plus you've inspired me to improve the man cave.
