The unit fits in a 15.00" casement window. There is merely 1.8" left on either side, and I didn't need the fold out screen. The unit fit perfect!

WheelinDealin is correct. I have a casement window that is 15.25" in width and had to cut the lower metal section out to make the A/C fit into one of my rental homes. This effectively ruins that side of the window and it must remain locked in place.

Can someone confirm the width? My window is also a 15.25" wide casement... Flor5586 says yes it will fit but wheelindealin says no... :/

No. The unit measures 16" without any panels attached. I have 16" wide window frames, and the unit just BARELY fits. It's not going to fit in anything under 16" wide.

The A/C unit is about 19" wide X 14 1/2"-15" high(the size that actually goes into the window). Then if you use the accordian sides, they can be expanded out to fill up to about 8"-12" on each side. Good luck and Happy Holidays.

Yes it is 41.7 inches, but if you are putting it in a narrow space - mine was 42.15! - bear in mind that you will need to be holding the unit square as you slide it into the space. The unit has thickness, and despite the small champher the overall width, if inserted at an angle, will be larger than your space. Also bear in mind that since you will have no ventilation at the sides, then you will need to have space above and below the unit.

You need to be specific on knowing and ordering the panel size. That is for a panel only. There is a wide, half or door panel available. I would download a manuel in pdf format from Dometic to understand how it all goes together.

Hi Robert - There is an extendable frame that attaches to the top of the unit (slides up and down along the outside edges of the unit). It comes with a corrugated plastic panel, that you cut to size, that slides into that frame. So be sure to measure twice, cut once, as this closes off the top of the window. Always err on the side of longer, so you can adjust if needed. Pretty simple.

the front of the unit is 14.5 inches, the flange that holds it into the window, is another,1.5 inches on both sides. if you slide the unit into the opening, it will fit if you don't have to slide it further than the flange. there is also about a 1/2 inch flange on the top.

I pulled out the accordian sides and the maximum width is around 37 inches. Unfortunately, I learned the hard way after purchasing this. My windows are around 42inches high (vertical mount). :(

Hi Dawn Just so you know, I had purchased the gun case to store a small solar panel that I use to charge my boat battery. My retangular panel was 13.5 inches by 39.5 inches. Given the outer dimensions I thought the solar panel would fit in the case but it did not. The absolute maximum usuable width inside the case was 12.5 inches. The opening for the carry handle significantly reduces the usable width. I don't exactly remember the interior length but I think it was about 1 inch shorter than the exterior dimension which would make it approx. 51 inches inside. The interior thickness was approx. 2 inches. (The foam took up about 1 inch per side.) I wish I could give you the exact interior length but unfortunately I returned the case for a refund. You may try www.planomolding.com to see if they can provide you with the exact interior length. I hope this was helpful.

I measured the unit without what Sharp calls the mounting kit (side sliders) and it is 16 1/2 inches wide; with the mounting kit on but closed it is 22 inches wide (according to Sharp) and 36 inches wide when mounting kit fully extended. As it is already in my window, I'm not sure how far out the unit extends but I don't think it's more than 24 inches. The mounting kit (or as I call them - side sliders) come with unit and are designed for wooden sill double or single hung sash-type windows per Sharp manual. For my 2 cents it is a great unit.

The width of the unit itself is 18 3/4 of an inch, so yes it would fit in a 20.5 inch window, and since the panels slide, you probably wouldn't have to remove them, they will just be tight against the unit.

Dear Jinx, The manufacturer lists the cutout dimensions as 18 3/4" x 24" (give or take 1/16th). So your cabinet appears to be a little too narrow. They also advise to allow 1 1/2" on all sides (27" models) for overlap of the trip frame over the edges of the cutout. For 30" models you should allow 1 1/2" on top and bottom and 3" on each side for overlap of the trim frame over the edges of the cutout.

The housing is 19.5 inches wide by 12 inches tall. Fully closed the accordion "wings" add 3" to the width. Any window with at least a 19" wide opening that opens 13" or more ( to allow for support on the bottom of the unit) will take this unit. If the window is less than 22.5" wide you can cut either 1/4" plywood or plexiglass to fit and use silicone to seal it.

Couldn't tell you honestly but I would say that if you take a measuring tape and you can clear 1" wide and 12 1/4" long away from any moving parts or from touching any critical components then I would suggest you get it. It looks very cool with the window especially if you took the time to make your case look neat and organized. Hope this helped.

I have this unit & am happy with it - but I have a much wider width window than you. If the minimum required is beyond your opening - that would be it. Even mine fit iin such a way that I couldn't put in the 2 side accordian sides typical for the window unit. I only had about 5 - 6 inches excess in total. You may have to go down to a smaller width unit.

I measured the one we have that's in a 36 inch window, and it looks like a 24 inch window is the narrowest window that it will fit - without slight modification. Cut/shave off 1/2 inch from each of the slide out panels and you should be fine. The wood is very soft and easy cutting. On another matter, if I had it to do over again I would get the less expensive clear plastic window and not the "one way" plastic. The "one way" plastic is good in theory, but it really limits what you can see on other than the brightest sunlight. Birds eventually get comfortable with your movements in the house anyway.

Be warned, your window needs to be a minimum of 22". They do not tell you on this site. I found out the hard way and still waiting for my return slip (6 days and counting).
