Pick the
right
window.
First,
decide
what
room(s)
you
want
to cool.
Then
choose
a
window
that will allow the air-conditioned
air
to flow
freely
and directly
into the room(s)
you want cooled.
Remember,
it's difficult
to
move air around
corners.
If the inner sliding
window
slides to the left,
the unit
will
be
installed
on the right. Remove window
screen

that's
also near an electrical
outlet.
