A window unit doesn't have an exhaust hose to start with. You won't hurt the unit by placing it inside a room, you just won't gain anything from it being there.
In order to exhaust the air from a window unit, you would have to fabricate some sort of duct that could reach the window, and be able to carry the heated air from the condenser as well as the condensation that will otherwise spill out on the floor. ----- Original Message ----- From: goshawk on horseback To: [email protected] Sent: Sunday, June 28, 2009 3:26 AM Subject: [BlindHandyMan] extending air conditioner exhaust hose? hello list, I am thinking about getting an air conditioner unit for one of my rooms, where a lot of my electronic gear is, but they all seem to come with not a lot of exhaust hose. unfortunately, because I don't have a lot of space here, it is very much a case of things have to go where ever there is room for them. so I will need to add about an extra 4 or 5 possibly even 6 meters to the exhaust hose, in order to get it to a window, that it can then go out of. but I don't know if doing this is ok, or if it would be likely to damage the air conditioner.
