First a question to the AC guru's. Am I right in assuming that you have to keep a window unit somewhat level to keep the hi/lo system in the AC working?
Now on to the mod......
I struggled with the set up on this configuration for the 10K BTU unit. There was just too much hassle. I would have to stab the unit through the Lexan opening, then install some molding. Just took too much time.
To remedy this I permanently mounted the Lexan to a bracket on the unit.
Installation now is just setting the outside bracket, removing one of the windows and just slide it into place.
I am very happy with the way it seals to the extrusion on the window frame. Now just to caulk everything up to give it a good weather proof seal. Then take it out and see how it works. I'm guessing my trip to Canyon Lake in June will be a good try out. No shade in my site!! You can say what you want about the small pre 74 windows, but I am loving them right now.
