The casement window AC units cost 3x as much...
[QUOTE=GAacTech;12494561 I really want to go back just to ask the tenant if i can examine the dang thing..[/QUOTE] Please Please DO ! I want the whole story.
.....they're just using it for a fan...
Compressor can not enjoy that....the refrigerant pressures would go nuts...a lot of window units have a hard enough time draining condensate when they are installed correctly...so where is the condensate draining here if it's draining at all.

What is the problem with this one or maybe what were they fixing with it. this is a small a/c window unit, It has one acceptable mounting position and that is FLAT! I was there to check the a/c for the upstairs tenant and this was hanging out of the wall running. It looked like it was a few months old? It still baffles me as to how it lasted a week with the comp sitting 90 degrees off and the oil migration that HAS to be occuring in tidal waves. How is this catching condensate? usually there is slinger on the cond fan to splah this condensate on the condensor. I really want to go back just to ask the tenant if i can examine the dang thing..
If all else fails, try reading the manual.
