Will this work as a barrier to block a room and keep air conditioned air on one side and non-air condition air on the other without leakage?

Since I didn't use it for this purpose, I am not sure if it would work for you or not. However, the product is pretty thick and I plan on tacking it up on my screened porch in the fall and leave until all of the spring pollen has gone. I know it is thick enough to keep the pollen out. I also use it for help in keeping paint off of my floors, etc.

I don't think these are a good option for that...they are for confined spaces (like a safe) for that much air you will need something more robust to be effective.

I seriously doubt it, the back panel would block most of the warm/cold air coming from your vent. not to mention the temperatures from your a/c can easily be handled by today's smartphones! :)

I would say no because the air conditioning unit is made to sit partially outside, to blow out the warm air outside. If it was sitting on a shelf then it would be blowing cold air from one side and warm air from the other side, working against itself.

Yes, it is a firm limit. If the wall is thicker than that, it will block the side vents and the unit will malfunction.

This may work, it depends on the depth of the inside of your window. It is 16.5 inches back from the gates that pull out from both sides of the air conditioner and rest against the window sash.

I have used this on external rubber seals on cars, and it works well as a moisture barrier. I assume it will work just as well for home window seals.

I have used bubble wrap over my in window airconditioners for several years. And also over draftyl windows. It is a good insulator and the the drafts do not get through - Dot

Yes, but it isn't super strong as some reviews note. I have it on a 45 degree angle vent, and it mostly blocks the airflow, but some comes out the sides. On a floor vent it would work better, on a ceiling vent, likely it would just fall off.

It could work as a vertical installation, but I wouldn't recommend it. You'd have to add material to enclose the exposed area not covered by the window panel included with the air conditioner. But what's worse is that you couldn't normally use that door since it probably would have to be permanently closed while attached to the enclosure material. But if you or someone you know is handy, you could build an enclosure running the vertical length on the inside of the door to allow the unit to vent while also allowing the door to open and close.

It would work well for sound and moisture they do make cheaper moisture barrier

Absolutely! My condensor is about the same size, I covered it so that all the corners were against the sides- shown in example picture #4. You will not have any gaps that way. Just remember to remove the cover when you use the AC again since it is not an all-season cover, but great for keeping out the leaves, snow, and any other debris.

I guess you could use it, however you won't be able to see out of the windows. There is a kit you can buy to seal windows and glass doors that would be much cheaper and easier to put up. I'm not sure what it is called but, I used it on my patio door one year and it did block any air coming in. It is a very clear plastic sheet and you put it across the windows and use a Hair Dryer all over it and it shrinks it down to seal it. If you can't find it let me know and I will see if I can ok? Hope this helps a little. Good luck.

The weather panels don't really seal. We put pvc pipe in the panel seam to weight it down. Its like a curtain rod. With that done and the screen panels closed, I think a/c would work great! We put black velcro at seams to connect around trailer and it seals tight. We love it!

No. This is a portable, simple, folding barrier. It is excellent for our purpose, to keep dog in our bedroom at night - would also serve to keep him out.

hi- this would go between the fan and the outside wall fitting to keep the air from getting into the house when the fan is off. I used it because I had 2 fans feeding out to one larger outlet, and didn't want the air short circuiting back into the bathroom that didn't have the fan on, You will still need an exterior fitting, either a hood or louver style
