You may never see this comment but I was struggling forever with these damn side panels. Found this video and immediately got it on. Thanks for this detailed step by step video. Super helpful!

You didn't tell us what the use of those other tools you mentioned to get were used for? (Drill, measuring tape, pencil, and level)

Had to pay someone $50 to install mine because it was a sliding window and I didnt have any of the tools of wood to install it, but the guy did a pretty good job. More than what I was expecting him to do. I thought it would be cooler but it's been like a half hour since I turned it on and I guess it's working. I will maybe leave an update.

Update: the AC is working good. I am nice and cool in my small room, now I'm nice a relaxed cool while its hell fire outside and muggy. Yep, that's my update. Enjoy.

I needed a very small ac to fit my window. I was able to install this one only using one of the side panels. I like the Eco feature where the AC cycles on and off maintaining a room temperature.

There must be a huge factory somewhere building these in huge quantities for several companies. The Perfect Aire you installed is identical to the 5, 000 BTU from Midea that I install yesterday. I took a shortcut to save time and avoid drilling holes in my window frame. I put a pair of bricks on the window sill to hold the A/C in place even when the window is opened.

Thank you, sir!!! You've given me the help I needed and eliminated my frustration!

Thank you 🙏 for this video. I just installed mine and I Love it. I can’t follow the manual. I need to see how it’s actually done. Thanks again.🙂

Thank you so much! The instructions included seemed to imply the opposite with the side panels (move them back to make a large space instead of pulling the fanned panel outward past the guards so you can hook the fanned portion to the unit. Watching you put them on saved me so much frustration.

You’re a life saver thanks for posting! My AC just went out and I was afraid I would have issues installing this myself, but your instructions guided me all the way~

[Inkling]

Larger A/Cs can blast out the cold air and cool quickly, but smaller and less expensive A/Cs can do the same by working slow and steady over a longer period. One trick is to start one up first thing in the morning when it is still cool outside. The A/C will work more efficiently and you can get ahead of the mid-day heat.

[ricklaing]

Thnx a lot. You made it look so easy. I appreciate it very much

[willstrohbusch]

So I really didn't understand how to install the frame locks for the bottom of the accordion by following the user manual. So big thanks for that. How do you screw if you have a plastic window and what should I do if I don't know where the unit frame should line up with the window sill? Best
