Window air conditioner?
Question:What do I do if I only have a sliding door and I want to get a window air conditioner? do I have options?
Answers:
yes you do, they have portable a/c's, floor type units that have a ducted condensor, you can run the duct to your door and seal up the remainer of the space on your door that is open somehow, look around online for one they are pricier than a standard window banger but maybe your only option.
nope, we have 4 airconditioners. all of them are windows that go up and down. i am the only on in the house that has a window that goes right to left. you could get on that just sits on the floor. but those are more $$$. best buy has em'. good luck
There are options. If you own the home you could cut out a hole in the wall & frame it out for a window unit. Or you could spend a little more & get a ductless unit.
Or you could go all the way & have central AC installed, about $6,000 where I live in upstate New York.
Hope this helped, good luck!!
Yes you do. You can get a new door or window. You can also cut out a hole in the wall. Otherwise you could just bake and forget about the extra cost of an air conditioner.
You need to cut a hole in the side of your house. Do you measurements inside based on where the studs are at in relationship to your air conditioner width. You want to cut out as few studs as possible. When you cut the stud they should be 16" on center. I would suggest taking all of the drywall off in a section a little over the width needed for your A/C unit. You will want to put new 2X4's at the new edge of the A/C unit. Do NOT cut your siding or stucco until you have this framing done correctly. You will basically be framing in a box in the wall to accomodate the dimensions of the unit. Allow for a little extra gap around the unit. When this is done you can cut the stucco or siding based on this. Best options are to drill a small hole at each of the corners of your new box from the inside then draw a line based on these holes on the outside of you house. You can then cut, chip etc the siding off. You will want to get a support bracket for the condensor unit of the a/c (this is the heavy side of the unit. You could also build this. Don't forget to allow for this when framing and cutting your hole. Since your drywall will be open now would also be a great time to run your power. Good luck
yes you can make a cutout in wall,
