can it be used in a window ac unit

I don't see a problem with using this in a window ac unit... It's not a strong chemical..

It has a pleasant non chemical smell so it won't make your house unbearable after you apply it.

The great thing about this product is it's not a chemical so it is safe to use on anything.

I have used these in window units. You just have to tuck it somewhere the condensate will dissolve it. There is usually a little room under the coils in the lower left corner - careful not to squish the styrofoam.

No, I think that you wouldn't be able to use this unit, with the glass door for a window. There is a hose and a fixture that is suppose to go in an actual window.

Not that I am aware of. Since the unit is air cooled it would probably be a bad idea.

You could, it works by running the main power lines through 2 holes in the unit. I used it to track the usage on my air conditioner. It also has a light that will flash each watt used

The answer will depend on the size of the AC. You need to know the number of amps that the AC draws.

It can be used in the home but will still only cool to the manufacturer's noted square footage. I do use mine in the garage where an A/C would not make sense because of the cost and cooling loss. I would only use it in the house for brief periods as it does add moisture into the air (making it more humid inside), would only drop the inside temp a little as compared to outside temps, and it is a bit loud for indoors. No complaints on its function in my garage where it has kept it very cool for the price. Hope that helps.

Sorry I missed the fact that your using a window. This unit I believe can be used that way, but its more for a wall opening.

The sockets are different sizes based on amperage ratings. If your window air conditioner plug is an L5-20P (20 amp) then it will work. However, the reason they do this to insure that your circuit has the capability to handle the load. If you are plugging this into a socket on a 15 amp breaker, you could have problems.

I would.use plywood, or several pieces of wood that fit the depth of your window sash. Remember to also seal the wood, and provide insulation on at least the outside. It would also be prudent to install several security mesures to prevent entry, or theft of the AC unit. Some.simple window locks, and bar woild be a good start. This unit uses a lot of power, so look at how much power you have on the circuit alreaty.

I don't see why it would be an issue. The only thing I can think of is that it will not turn on until the ambient humidity exceeds the setting you have on the humidistat.I have thought about putting one in my garage, but I'd rather have one with a thermostat instead of a humidistat.If humidity is your concern, you shouldn't have any problems.As far as the size of your window - you may need to add a wooden flange within the window opening in order to fit the unit.

If you have a hole in your wall of the right size, yes. That's what I've done, in a small window - window removed and framed up the hole to fit this unit.It's not exactly the same as a wall unit - the kind with a small separate air unit in the room, connected to a larger outside unit. Those need only small holes to pass through the refrigerant lines and such.Those are much more expensive, are quieter, and generally higher capacity. This one is just a big old window unit. Cools well, but is noisy.And keep in mind that this unit is 220 volt. Can't just plug it in to a wall socket. If you have a hole in your wall of the right size, yes.

No. This unit is AC only, therefore will only work if you have it plugged into a wall outlet.

Yes it can, I used my AC as a back up to a small server room....You will have to buy or build yourself a support shelf to hold unit....I cut the wall area about an inch bigger than unit, framed it in with 1" x 4" pine.

Hmm, not sure. I guess it would depend if your window opening was big enough. if it was you may be able to mount it sideways. The fan must be mounted to the window frame with screws. maybe you can contact the company and ask them.

yes U can, you just have to figure out how to get to the pan...I drop one in every six weeks...works fine for window units

The venting brackets that come with the unit are designed to mount in a window, but if you can find a way to mount it to the wall vent I would think it would be fine.
