Universal Window Seal Kit for Portable Air Conditioner of Exhaust Hose 5.1 Inch Diameter with Coupler Adjustable AC Vent Kit PVC Seal for Sliding Window

The product works like it is supposed to. Stable on an 80+ inch high sliding door. That being said, any panels of this kind will present installation challenges. Out of 3 we tried, including the one with the AC, this was the easiest, but dont expect any solution to be easy. It takes a few tries of tinkering to get it to work right. Would be nice to have more tape. It is enough for one side of our installation.

Its not bad construction, but there are issues unsolved with this solution. First, the window is open meaning hot/cold outside air will hit the sliding window and be forced up behind the fixed window right into the room. Second, the channels do not block hot/cold air, either. The outside air hits the seal kit and passes unimpeded into the room. They could have solved that with a notch that fit into the channel ahead of the metal plate. Last, the sides of the kit are thin material making it impossible to secure the sealing foam and block air from passing around the kit. 3 flaws there. And, why did they send 5 sets of plate/screws?? The installation 5x7 is totally insufficient.

Unfortunately the window kit shipped with our GE portable a/c was flimsy and cut in a way that the side panels blocked the hole to attach the hose in our size window (even though it said it could handle that window width). So we purchased this as a replacement, and it worked perfectly. It was easy to put together, its staying put, and its just generally doing what we need so we can run the a/c in the bedroom. Very happy with the purchase. Only recommendation is to seal around the edges with a high density foam tape (not typical weather stripping, but more like 1 1/4 in wide and 1/8 - 1/4 in thick.

take your time , it works well , this is the easiest way to vent air conditioner heat exhaust. I used a name brand tape to seal up with this kit, use the best tape that doesnt leave a sticky residue over time. So simple.

I understood that there were two size exhaust hose diameters, 5.1” and 5.9” I ordered, by mistake, and returned the 5.1” This one was the 5.9” which is what I thought was the right size but my exhaust hose didnt fit in the outlet connector. Not did the outlet connector already on my exhaust hose fit in the new panel’s hole. I had to modify the panel with the hole that I already had (by drilling a new hole for the connection hardware) so I could integrate my existing panel to fit with the new ones. It was an easy adjustment but I dont know why my hose didnt fit into the new parts. Could be user error but unless there is a 6” exhaust hose rather than the 5.9” it makes no sense. Otherwise product is great and works well. Measure carefully!

Item is just what I wanted. Good quality for the price.

I havent used yet because I have to go and buy thicker weather seal. Kinda a bummer but will see after I get some. Also the roll they send with it definitely isnt enough for both sides

The concepts is simple and this product does in fact hold the exhaust vent in the sliding door… BUT when it comes with a broken hose connectors it renders this item useless!!!

This product is great is you have big window openings, now I can use my portable ac thanks to this product

It took me 5 minutes to assemble once I found the video tutorial. I live in Florida and the humidity can make the heat unbearable. Once this thing was in the room cooled down so fast. Great value.
