Why would you open a window with the air conditioner running? Seems like a waste. Open all the windows up! LOL

so the hot air will offset the cooling and will heat up your place gradually. Funny thing is i did once see someone stick a small condenser in their living room blowing out through a window. i wonder where the unit gets the makeup air from..lol
It’s nothing just an air coming out from condenser coil. If I would have problem in Air condition I always get it repaired by securecomfort
stove vent. pulls the moisture and odors out of the house.

The only issue is as stated before you are blowing heated air into a house that you are trying to cool.

You are putting hot air into the house you ate trying to cool. Sent from my ERIS using Tapatalk 2
AC Compressors This might be a stupid question, but are there any issues with the air being blown out of an AC compressor coming into the home? We have an AC compressor right below a window that is frequently open and I was just curious.
