Converted Portable AC units

I've converted my two portable ACs from single hose to dual hose. When they were single hose, could see the vinyl window seal would be inflated, pushing inwards, I could my hand to any gaps in the seal and window and feel the 100° outside air rushing in. Now the window seal is deflated and no air comes in. Another interesting tidbit, possibly since the intake is now sucking in hot outside air, the evaporator does not make any excess water so I never have to empty the reservoir. In the past one unit would fill up a liter mug in one night, now that unit will leave like a few drops in the jar after hours of use. submitted by /u/SquanchytheSquirrel [link] [comments]
