Will this A/C unit work if I don't use the exhaust window kit?

If you don't exhaust the warm air outside or into another area you are only moving the warm air around the room and not cooling. There would be no benefit only wasting electricity.

It will run, but all the warm air will go back into the room unless it is exhausted somewhere else.

The window kit vents the exhaust hot air . I would not use without installing it. The window kit can be sized ( cut to fit ) I own three Haier portable air conditioners. 8,000 -10,000- 12,000 BTU. They are great units and do a fantastic job.

You must funnel the heat coming out of the rear exhaust to the outside or another unused room, or you are simply moving the air around in the same room using a lot of electricity (With no beneficial cooling). RJK

Yes, if you are referring to the window installation kit, it does come with it. "Unit must be vented to the outside (use included window installation kit and follow detailed installation instructions in the Owner Manual.)"

Yes. It must be vented to the outside and the kit it comes with is meant to vent it through a window.

You will need an exhaust hose. Hot air blows out of the exhaust port and would just go back into your room, defeating the whole purpose of the air conditioner.

No. This is the outside unit for the air conditioning system. The heat doesn't need this. But you might need something else for it.

The exhaust system for the window consists of an adjustable panel that you sandwich in between the frame and the sliding section of the window. So if you have access to the track/frame of your window you are good to go. If there are screens on the inside blocking access to the track, they will be in the way, and you wouldn't be able to use the exhaust parts as intended

as long as you have a window to exhaust the hot air out of the room,using the window kit.works well.

No, but I would seriously consider a window a/c. This does not cool effectively and my electric bill went up more than three times prior years running a window a/c 24/7

You definitely need to vent the hot air out of the area you want to cool. Bottom line if you don't have a window to vent the hot air this ac unit would be useless to you.

I have a heat only system too with window A/C units. It works fine controlling just the heat. Great thermostat have had no problems.

No. I dont think you can. It is not set up like that. In order for the unit to be ductless you would have to change and modify inside parts cap off the existing exhaust , replace filters, and cut out another vent right above the glass for air to recycle. Similar to the standard hoods. It can get very expensive to modify.

I DON'T know if it will work or not. The engine specs aren't that much different in the two. Amazon has a great tool when purchasing automotive accessories that lets you enter your vehicle's information, and it will tell you immediately if it is compatible or not. I recommend you use that feature. I will also tell you that the a/c itself works GREAT.

No, it works in roughly the same way a window unit AC does, it's not a swamp cooler. The biggest negative I've seen is that these units don't exhaust the hot air very efficiently, so wrapping the exhaust hose with some insulation can make a big difference.

No it does not, which is why we purchased a swamp cooler versus a room ac unit. We did not want to deal with windows and venting

yes. The window kit is necessary and is provided. Includes a tiny water exhaust line, but some drainage from a bottom outlet is still required occasionally. . . i.e. it does not seem to exhaust all condensation through the tiny condensation exhaust hose so some manual draining is necessary.

The quick answer is I don't know. However, I would note there is apparently a small tray at the bottom (others have mentioned this). The basic problem I see with not installing the exhaust is where is the hot air supposed to go? You can, I have, have the pipe go out a homemade baffle. I did this since the one that came did not work in my window. Hope that helps.

There is no exhaust pipe and no window kit is needed. Unlike portable air conditioners that need to release the hot air from the unit by using an exhaust pipe and window kit, the Honeywell air cooler doesnt. It is built to just cool the hot air. I have had a portable air conditioner before and I prefer the Honeywell air cooler.
