Installing a New Midea U-Shaped Air Conditioner

Today we helped an sweet old lady in need. This was a new client who was having a tough time with a broken HVAC system and needed relief from the heat right away. We set her up with a new Midea U-Shaped Inverter window Air Conditioner. By separating the condenser coil and fan motor from the evaporator coil and fan motor, Midea has created a quiet and efficient window A/C.

I just received mine, this video looks easy - watch it'll take me a few hours to install. LOL

On my 12k Midea, it required a quite severe downward tilt outside to enable the condensate to drain, if it's not tilted enough, the water collects and remains inside, and the humidity does not get reduced properly as it cools, but instead went up, making it clammy feeling.
Test your unit operation by getting a combo thermometer/hygrometer and see if the humidity goes down while it's working.

Enjoy while it works. I pursed one 12000-BTU for me and one for my son. They both worked for two summers and after that went dead. The code indicated that there is a loss of refrigerant. I contacted midea customer service and they gave me the run around by saying that the unit has only one year warranty. That is correct, but the user manual state that there is three years warranty on the compressor and five years warranty on the seals. I contacted them again and basically they told that unless i pay for a approved technician to check the units they can't help me. After I payd $500 each for a defective unit I didn’t feel that I have to pay for someone to confirm what the code ELOC meant. Since there was no help from midea I had to dispose both in the garbage.

You made it look so easy. What would you do if the outside ledge was out the full the bracket? legs cannot drop to brace underneath the ledge.

I’m interested in this AC for power outage usage only and with the window always down to help secure when it’s positioned. Assuming calm weather and window down, might it be possible to skip screwing the bracket into the moldings? I want 100% reversible.

Where do u get window air unit holder??? I need one

[SuperEddie]

Can you list the items you had to screw on please. I have a U shaped AC unit but not sure if everything in the video is included or I will have to buy separately.

So, almost every single window A/C unit has a maximum width of 36" and my window is unsurprisingly 37.5" wide. Am I screwed or is it just a matter of putting some extra DIY into the installation?

[foxtrot]

My window is only 13 inches high. Would it still fit? I’m assuming I can slide it in through the back by tilting it a little bit. Or the 13.75” a hard number?

[getrekkedon]

What about the gap under the bracket? Does that let air through?

[vegan-food-is-salad]

Have you ever jerry rigged this to fit in a window wider than 36”? 🤞🏻

telling an old lady "GFCI" is a little overkill dude save her some brain cells

[notsure]
