LG Portable Air Conditioner - Installation (2018 Update)

[@wendycadet2250]

*It’s: Pretty. Quiet. **Fastly.Cool** in my room. Works wellLittle of hassle to install was TOTALLY worth it. I’m loving it so far. I recommend watching the installation video and taking it slow~*

[@blue-ck9ns]

1:27 what LG doesn’t mention (which is very important) is that absolutely NO air can escape from the mounting bracket/diffuser. otherwise, hot/humid air will be released from the gaps, increasing humidity, which won’t allow the A/C to cool efficiently. Think about it like this. If there were a hole in the hose, some of the hot air that the unit was trying to put outside would be released into the room. The same thing happens if there are any air gaps at the attachment points. buy some insulating tape from your local Lowe’s or The Home Depot, apply it around the attachments of the mounting bracket & diffuser, and you should be good. also, make sure the window is sealed entirely, and that no air can get in or out. air escaping from anywhere other than the A/C vent will increase humidity. Lastly, this air conditioner is not portable by any means. it really needs to be permanently installed if you want the best performance out of it.

[@tamarab5751]

I have a horizontal/Left to Right sliding window & had this installed & cooling in under 2 hours, including trimming & installing a piece of screen to go over the grating b/c I don't have a screen in that window. I could have used extra foam but w/ rigid insulation I had on hand trimmed down I made it fit quite snug. In 15 minutes my room has dropped 10 degrees easily. I watched this video at least twice.

[@spookybarns]

Why did you need the screen?

[@tiredgirl50]

I absolutely loved the portable units I had for my mobile home when my central air unit went out. I had two units that cooled the living room, kitchen, and bathroom and slept in the living room. One was 12000 btu's and the other was 10,000 btu's. The only drawback is that they do make a lot of noise. Mine weren't this brand though.

I’m installing now. For this price the garbled printed instructions and ancient videos are infuriating. I hope the unit works better than the installation directions.

[@seanhubble277]

Works great, units we got were a tiny bit different but the video was spot on, thank you

[@takezoaudio]

you need to insulate the expanding hose which blows out the hot air. otherwise, it's like having a radiating heater and ac on at the same time. insulate using towels or blankets wrapped and taped tightly, covering the entirety of the hose. 2 to 4 inches of insulation is adequate.

[@valerievalerie5897]

How do you insulate the hose? I used this last summer but now when I set temp it jumps to 80. I can’t find help online at all nor in manual. Any help would be appreciated.

[@takezoaudio]

@@valerievalerie5897 i use an old thick blanket to wrap the expanding hose from end to end, using tape to keep it from unraveling. the thicker the material used for insulation, the better it keeps the heat from leaking into the room. you can use old newspapers, towels, blankets or even insulation found in hardware stores. just remember, you're goal is to keep the hot expanding hose from heating up the room. the insulated hose should be cool to the touch when the ac is running. if it is still warm, i would wrap another layer until it is cool to the touch.

[@valerievalerie5897]

takezoaudio thanks so much. I’ll try that in the morning ( also cleaning filters tonight ) so strange it was great last year.

[@valerievalerie5897]

takezoaudio sorry to bother you I wrapped hose with towels blankets etc and mask taped best I could. The air coming out seems cool and my next question is how much of hose can you leave in order to touch for temp ? I discovered late last night mine is one of 3 models recalled contacted LG but not optimistic about contact. I’m going to watch carefully and continue to use. Right now hose exposed say 1 1/2 inch each end and is warm but not hot. Thanks for your help

[@takezoaudio]

@@valerievalerie5897 i cover every inch of the hose. i touch for temperature on the blanket surface and it is cool. if warm, then add another layer. good luck

[@stevanrnjak2564]

This type of units you must always insulate the hose becaue you are cooling with unit and heating with the units hose ( it’s just a plastic hose, heat’s up when in use).

[@ursulasmith6402]

Oh, I didn't know that. They should have mentioned it, hmmm

[@deaddoll1361]

The whole unit heats up, the hot air being expelled doesn't make the hose so hot it reheats the room.

[@averageuser4669]

how would you go about insulating the hose?

[@dominicnunez6057]

There are a lot of issues with the window panel installation if you have a left to right sliding window. This video nor any other video goes over the problems. Extremely frustrating

[@GuillaumeB7]

Yeah, you basically need you to make your own window pannel using plywood, and then screw the provided window panel into it to be able to attach the hose. Especially if you have windows higher than 50". Even if it's inconvenient, the advantage is that it will provide better insulation from heat and sound than what just installing the slim panel could provide (especially with a 1-inch plywood). It also makes you able to install a vent cover on the outside. Just make sure to paint the plywood (ideally in white if the sun shine directly on it during the day) so that it does not rot.

[@fredsonmartis]

Hi. Did you manage to install it Dominic?

[@melissasmidt222]

FYI- the diffusers DO NOT screw on to each end of the hose. Worst design ever. However, if you unscrew the black grate , fully extend both ends of the hose, and leverage one side in first and very carefully use needle nose pliers to pull the other side up... you'll secure each diffuser. Making a seal is critical as the hose will vibrate out of the diffusers within a few minutes of usage.

[@USNavyMC]

Glad it’s not just me this is crazy the hose definitely won’t screw into the bracket

[@TrueToad]

I bought one for my outdoor work shop. Season -1 the auto drain feature stopped working as well as the auto shut off when water level is full from condensation - causing the unit to leak water all over the floor. Season -2 the articulating air flow blade stopped working and later in the middle of summer the unit stopped working all together.

[@viper8177]

I think the dual hose ones do better when it is a lot hotter like 100°F but the single hose units perform better at lower temperatures e.g. 85. There is a video somewhere on this where they did tests. So for where I live I would be wasting money to buy a dual hose unit because the single hose will perform better when the heat isn't so much. I don't have a problem if air is being sucked in from the other side of the home as that will be the cooler shady side. I suspect though that the air coming back in would not be as hot as the air being expelled. Also, many people like me do not have windows that slide either vertically or horizontally but swing out vertically or horizontally instead. So it would be even more difficult with dual hose. It is already tough with single hose and you have to avoid the expelled air coming back in by getting wind direction etc right. I think a dual hose could suffer that problem just as much with hot air that is expelled coming straight back in. The window units seem to be better than both portable types but again they need the vertical sliding windows. One thing I'd like to know is if LG make portable units with more BTUs e.g. 18,000 or 24,000? 12,000 may only be good for smaller rooms.

@@chill8362 I did find a cheaper version I bought another brand online after posting this since I needed a new one. Cost about $260. The first was $329 at Home Depot.

You don't have to screw it in if you don't want to. The only thing that really has to be screwed is the window vent panel.

[@VTuber_Central]

all these youtube tutorials are windows that slide up and down and not big windows in the living room that slide side to side. Are all american windows up and down?

[@KILLzone_565]

My living room has side sliding windows. All you do is flip the window bracket vertically.

How about for those that have a swivel? My windows swivel out. They are not side to side or up top to bottom.

[@BobSmith-dk8nw]

@@KILLzone_565 Yeah. Ours were really tall though - so that didn't work. Fortunately there was an old cat door we used. .

When I turned my unit on a leprechaun jumped out, but he won't grant any wishes. He just wants to lie around and drink my beer and play video games all day.

Answer his question! Why does the porridge bird lay his egg in the air? They don't do wishes or gold anymore but at least you'll get a pot of fiat dollars.

[@aubreywestern5606]

Have not yet found instructions for installing this useless aparatus through a circular wall vent. I'm not interested in a window unit- if I were I'd buy one designed to fit into the window instead of take up room space.
