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.

If you are referring to the air hose, no. As for any accumulated water I have never a problem with that, it has evaporated .

I do not see why not. It just goes somewhere on the hose. Just put it closer to the intake so its not in your way.

You'll need a plumbing adapter to connect this in place of a faucet aerator or spray head. I think the hose is MUCH too long for sink use, though; get a hose made for sinks.

There is a weight on the hose under the sink. As long as that can move freely, it will assist in returning the hose. It is not a hands-free return. Dont get hung up on that, its a great faucet.

Yes you can, just loosen the hose stop and tighten where you want the hose to stop

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.

Yes you stick it in the wort, or water you want to cool down. Then hook the hose up to the faucet and run cold water through it.

The actual unit is not in a window, but, there is a hose connection from the Frigidaire that must be installed in a window to act as the vent for the unit.

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

haven't tried with a hose and it's not designed to be used that way, if you plan on using a hose just pick up a Drain Cleaning Bladder from home depot or order on amazon. hope this helps.

The unit must be vented outside. A window is the most convenient, although I vented mine through a wall.There is only one hose on my unit.

No "auto-drain". Open the drain and either put a bucket behind it (in which case unit will have to be elevated above the bucket), or run a hose from the drain out the window (in which case unit will need to be elevated above the end of the hose the goes out of the window).

You place this up to where your water source is. It's just a bowl that drains out thru the hose.

Don't know if you still need an answer, but yes, you can turn the vent on end and use it in horizontal windows as well. There's a flat panel with a hole in it for the hose to go out. Depending on the height of your windows, you might need something to block any open space - the panel isn't huge, built more for regular vertical windows. I've used it in a regular window with the screen in place, no problem (although you'll want to wash the screen when you remove the unit for the year - it gets a little fuzzy circle where the air blows out. I've had this unit for a year and LOVE it, great for a room or two, or a small apartment. Doesn't raise my electric bill through the roof either.

I bought some stops from home depot that screw into the window. so yes, you can. It's not wonderful but it works so far. I guess if someone wanted in they could just manhandle it.

I'm not sure the unit is intended for external installation. Mine is under an inside sink. That having been said, the water connections are on the bottom. it seems to me that if you shut off the valve and unscrew the water connections, the water would with the help of gravity, drain out of the unit.
