The old unit will always out preform the new unit and I hope you donated to a thrift store instead of throwing it out.
I could not understand what he was saying half the time.
Alright now do mine
The base board heater looked like a problem waiting to happen.
Is there a way to hook something like a ecobee to a PTAC? I have a Trane prospace if it helps
Great video How much bigger did you make your opening?
I don’t understand putting something in a hole through an exterior wall with absolutely no flashing. When water gets to the wood what will happen? Do it all over?
do you remove the ac in the winter? and if you leave it what ideas are there to prevent cold air from coming through the AC? (we live in Canada and winters are cold while summers are hot)
2:38 - I once had a debrise come into my apartment and it took months to get rid of.
I would have just cut the drywall wide enough all around and do your framing then put drywall back and mud. Much easier.
Thanks for your time
Hi my sleeve is 16” deep, is a 20” deep ac compatible with my existing sleeve?
Crimping a plug-in lead each wire an replace in the plug to make it look more professional. Wire nuts? What wire nuts
Don’t hit like often, but the RBZ hat was a must for me 😂😂
Your video shows how to make the existing hole through the wall wider to accommodate a larger sleeve. I need to go in the opposite direction since my new a/c sleeve is a little more than 1 inch shorter (in height) than the one currently installed. How would you recommend "patching" the gap from both the inside and outside of the house?? Although the a/c is installed under the eave of the roof, I want to make sure no driving rain/snow finds its way into any gaps. Thanks in advance for your help.
Did you ever get any answer to your question of determine how to make those adjustments? I have the same issue as the newer models are a bit more compact than my old Kenmore from the 80's! Thanks.
@@telumears I did not, but came up with a way on my own. I bought a piece of pressure treated wood (in my case approximately 1.5" thick x 6" deep x 25.5" wide) from Home Depot and screwed it securely into the wall studs running along the bottom of the opening in the wall that the a/c sleeve fits into. That filled in the original gap between the bottom of the a/c sleeve and the wall perfectly. I then caulked all around the opening (including the new piece of wood) very well from both the inside and outside of the wall to make sure no rain/snow/insects would be able to get in. A picture would have been worth a 1,000 words, but I'm not able to attach 1 here. If you also need to fill in a gap width wise, you could take the same approach as I did height wise that I just described. Hope it works out for you.
Great video! I have a new ac wall unit I bought last year. What can I use in the sleeve to reduce loud vibration from the condenser? Thanks!
Tapering the drywall piece and the wall above sure make it easier to tape and drywall with minimum show.
That was Awesome and Exactly what I needed to do,thank you, Great !!!
I have an LG LT1236CER and the rear black plastic strip you removed is also on my model, but its white and attached to the protective cover around the motor... So I'm assuming I shouldn't remove this even though it serves a similar function to the black strip you removed.... UPDATE: LG Rep said if the plastic part is on the outside it can be removed...
Is ground necessary?
Homie what if ours didn’t come with a ptac
What If I could only find a smaller unit to install in an existing sleeve? 😬
Same here,I need to build up the bottom/top and the sides by at least 1" on each. Then I hope the sleeve fits. The very old units were quite a bit bigger. Good luck!
THX MIAMI FL...
I have a brand new LG and the compressor on both of them i ordered blows cold air for literally 1 min then blows hot air. Like wtf??i reset it and all. Smfh dont but LG units smh
some air conditioner came with a green wire, what about that. you dont used on the video.
the grounding wire is optional as long as you have a working three prong grounded plug.
What kind of AC is that? My wall measurements are 25 by 15 how can I go about buying the right ac that will be perfect fit? New to this 🥺
Hey girl you could get a 24x14 my measurements were 26 by 16 i bought a 24 and all you have to do is cover the remaning sides by foam
Easy 💰 Thank you
Installed one and didn’t unscrew that small flap at the end. Is that a huge issue??
Yes
Great install, does that ac unit cool good installing that low.
Remember he was using an existing location and outlet. Always a problem in furniture location as well. Grills can be pointed upward to help but a ceiling fan is a good idea as well.
How he lifted the ac like nothing 😂😂
Tip: use a stud finder that also can locate wires so you know where any hot wires are.
Great Install, the only issue being that you put screws in the bottom of the sleeve. Even though the unit is sloped to drain outside in the event of a backup holes in the bottom of the sleeve inside the wall could lead to water damage over time
Thanks for putting this up, finally a video showing me how to properly do this.
