You can have a low ambient kit installed or you can build a box on the outside that deflects the hot discharge air back to the fresh air vents.If you use a widow ac in a window, in a sealed room, you know when it gets cold outside, the Ac quits working... I see all the designs about shakers for keeping it inside but nothing on what ypou would do if it was outside and winter time..
Anybody got any experience with this?
Do they make a low ambient kit for window units? I never seen one. Never even heard of oneYou can have a low ambient kit installed or you can build a box on the outside that deflects the hot discharge air back to the fresh air vents.
A good ac tech would build you one. They can modify and add controls to control head pressure.Do they make a low ambient kit for window units? I never seen one. Never even heard of one
So....no hahaA good ac tech would build you one. They can modify and add controls to control head pressure.

I'd be surprised if they didn't sell them window ac's tend to freeze up in the winter. If you can't find one a good controls guy can build you one. Me personally would deflect the hot air into fresh air intakes its cheap and easySo....no haha
can you elborate on both of these! Im very interested in both. I ve never heard of the kits.. Can i install the kit? And a box that deflects the hot discharge back at the fresh air intake.. That sounds pretty good but im still not for sure I have ever seen the inside of my window unit... man I sure would like a write up on that!You can have a low ambient kit installed or you can build a box on the outside that deflects the hot discharge air back to the fresh air vents.
U might be able to install a low ambient kit urself but idk about a crankcase heater. ....if ya gotta get an hvac guy out to ur house u might as well make good use of it and get a proper ac unit instead of a window unit. Theyre very inefficient in comparison to a central air unit or minisplit. Luckily i have a close friend who is an hvac guy. He hooked me up w a central ac for my grow....1500 in equipment and a bag of weed for the laborcan you elborate on both of these! Im very interested in both. I ve never heard of the kits..

Have u looked into those "aura systems "? Theyre like diy minisplits w pre charged line setsAll good ideas! I will put it all in to some deep thought! I got about 5 months before i have to worry about it...
I wonder if Mr Slim will work in low temps? I seen it at my lowes I think.. Ita a split sytem. I wonder if I can hook it up myself? I cant have an Hvac come to my house.. Not an option... But im pretty damn good at doing shit myself!
