This is not a window air conditioner and does not require a drain hose. You can put one on it but is not needed.

DEpends. If u hve a glass window, lift up until the piece with the two holes fits in the space, secure it and attach the hoses as indicated in the instructions. In my case I had a samller space than a regular window and was working with plexiglass, so I made my own...

You could simply add a hose of the length that you need to reach your desired draining spot.

It comes with a 4 inch diameter hose that connects to the back on the unit and out the window. The hose has an adapter that you place in the bottom of of the window sill. You close the window down to the adapter. Your window is only open approx 4 to 5 inches. This exhausts the warm air and humidity to the outside. It is very simple to install and requires no tools. I had my unit up and running in less than ten minutes. I am very satisfied. Also unless you are really looking for it it is not noticeable from the outside.

On the back of the unit there is a drain cap, it comes with a drain joint pipe if you want to hook it up to a hose. There is a illustration in the manual http://www.friedrich.com/support/manuals-brochures/iom-manuals

You can totally do it yourself. The hardest part is the duct work modification. Mine was already done from an older humidifier. The waterline was simple and I joined the drain line to the drain from the AC.

sorry it took so long to respond... I have not used a drain line! This AC unit is fantastic! It evaporates out the exhaust!

If your asking like where to drill the hole for the waste line (black hose) then all you do is position the r o where you wand it, then run the black line to the drain pipe, you want it at least 6" from the bottom of the pipe where it lopes cause water stays in there, so just go as high as you can to where you can drill a hole, it comes with the kit to adapt black hose on pipe,, and ofcourse the other hose(white) hook up to your cold water, you mite have to go to Home Depot to get a fitting, I did cause mine was different size, only like 3$ but others then that that's it, run the blue line where ever and turn on and enjoy

There is no fitting on drip tank to install a drain hose ,this dehumidifier is a very small unit for small spaces like a closet or a very small bathroom .

just attach a longer drain hose. Its a simple fix....hardwares store rubber tubing will be fine for this.

The airflow should be up and the drain should be down which would be the side from the compressor.

You put it on the end of the hose. Make sure you secure it tightly with the enclosed zip ties. Good luck.

Simple garden hose bib and cut the hose long enough to make it to the drain. It is clearly spelled out in the pamphlet that comes with the unit.

I do not think so, I just looked at the unit, I do not see any place to attach a drain hose.

assuming you have a drain at a level lower than the drain plug in the unit.... buy at least 2 feet of hose that fits the drain line and press it onto the drain line

Get rid of the plastic stuff doesn't work. None of the plastic junk for these portables work. I find the best way to do this is to Have someone cut a piece of wood the length of your window and the height of the opening for the hose. Have them cut a circle in the wood so you can run the hose out the wood to the outside. Duct tape the hose to the wood so it doesn't pull out.

Do you mean the drain hose, or the exhaust hose? If the drain hose, yes, but only if the AC is at a higher elevation than the sink. (Water runs downhill). If you mean the exhaust hose, then, no. The AC is drawing air from the room, and removing the heat from that air. The excess heat has to go somewhere (heat is energy, and energy doesn't just disappear, it has to go somewhere). If you blow that exhaust heat back into room, the overall room temperature will not go down. In fact, it may go UP, because the AC is also drawing energy from electrical outlet to do the work it is doing, and THAT energy has to go somewhere. So, no, putting the exhaust hose in the sink will not give you a good result.
