Can this unit go through the wall. And what outside vent do you use

The hose attaches very easily to the exhaust vent of my Amana portable AC that sits on the floor. The hose that comes with the A/C was not long enough to reach the window that was about 6 feet off the ground so I bought a longer one on Amazon. The plate (outside vent) that came with the A/C that attaches to the window to connect to the exhaust hose was not the correct size for my window. A handyman custom made a plate that snaps into the window since the window was an odd shape.

The hose can go thorough the wall, but remember it will radiate the heat into the wall unless you insulate the hose. My portable A/C unit came with a 5 inch outside vent so I screwed the Whynter into the fixture and placed it outside through my window.

I used the exhaust hose for my indoor Simplicity A/C unit. It wasn't a perfect fit but I couldn't find an exhaust hose like this one anywhere else.

I just bought this unit and set it up. My recommendation is not to purchase this one but one that has venting out the front bottom. This unit is meant to have open free standing in a room. Under counter types vent air from front back out where ever but not pulling air from back and vent to the back like this one does. Hope this helps.

It can be configured to either vent out the front or if you have the ventilation ducting to outside you can direct it up through a duct in the top (through the cabinets above it) or out the wall behind it. Other than mustering up the courage to cut a hole in the side of my house, and measuring about 6 times to make sure it was in the correct location, it was actually pretty easy to make it vent out through the wall.

The venting is very important for the operation of this equipment. It must be mounted near an outside wall, and the distance needed to run the vent pipe is dependent on how many bends, etc. It is NOT included with the water heater and must be purchased separately. Amazon carries the vent piping that would work with this unit. I would check the owner's manual for the unit to see a better description of venting requirements.

going thru wall is fine, the ducting is 6"..... the outside cover is 8x8..... so if your opening on outside is 8x8, the cover will not cover and I would think it would fit inside you opening.

The back is open all the way up. The metal shaft only has there sides. The top of the metal shafts is also open. It come with a coil tube as well. You would have no problem having it go through a wall vent. However, you would need to mount it high enough that no one looks down the open top or make a cap. We love ours. Very very sharp! Well worth it.

Mine mounts in the basement and vents out through the wall via PVC pipe....

I have mine without and It has worked flawless. It would seem depending on the distance to the out side. My vent is through the wall directly behind my dryer.

No, It doesn't have to be vented thru the wall. But, if it a small space it a good idea to crack a window.

Do not see any problem, you will have to put a heat protection at the point where you go through the wall. may need to check with building code requirements for that.

If it is a through the wall you need a sleeve. The sleeve allows the condensation to drain outside.

If I remember correctly, I don't think it can go through walls, needs to be an open space. So, I'd check the specs before buying.

Yes and no. It has an intake vents on one side. The wall can not be very thick. I used it a threw wall. It was a thick insulated New England wall. The hole cut on the inside of the wall just fit the front. The hole on the outside of the wall was larger. I boxed in a pocket so I did not cover the vent.

It can be configured to vent through the back or the top of the hood. You would have to install the duct and outdoor hardware to complete the job, (not included with the hood). I used it to replace an existing hood that vented out the back into a duct already in the wall and it mated up nicely with the old opening.

NO unless specifically designed for through the wall installation it is NOT. Air conditioners have exterior vents on the side panels of unit for cooling the condenser coil . If they are blocked in a sleeve or through the wall installation the unit will not work correctly. Through the wall units have NO exterior side vents and all cooling of condenser coil is done through just the rear of vent of the unit.

I believe the venting system can either be internal, where it sucks in the air but doesn't really go anywhere as it dissipates internally. Or you can flip the fan mechanism in the back center (take it out and turn it so the fan faces out), this way the vented air will blow through the microwave and back into a vent that goes outside, or it can simply be vented into the wall. Cut the drywall behind where the vent would go and the air blows in behind the drywall.The ideal is to have a vent that goes outside though.

YOu could frill a hole in the bottom/back and bring the supply in there instead of from underneath, or just bring your supp;y through the wall below the unit and then upwards through some flex. I do not believe this unit it rated for outdoor use (not waterproof, etc)
