AC Wall Unit
We are considering doing this for the summer.
There is no slot there yet, it would have to be done.
What's the best way to go about this?
I know Sears, PC Richards and others do this. Any idea how much it costs? It would be going through vinyl siding.

Re: AC Wall Unit
We bought our units with PC richards. They did the installation. They cut the hole for us and finished it.
It was subcontracted out.

How much did you pay if you don't mind me asking?

Re: AC Wall Unit
How does this affect wintertime? Does the cold air get in and make your house colder?

Rats!
I haven't looked anywhere really yet. I need to get this going soon. The window unit is not cutting it and it's too loud and right by the bed.

$250 or $300 but that was about 5 years ago and we got a discount because we knew someone.

Re: AC Wall Unit
They have a sale that ends today I believe. After rebate the cost of the installation with vinyl siding is $59.
ETA - PC Richards that is.

There is an outside cover you can put on it. I also put that window shrinkwrap stuff on the inside and a cover over the shrinkwrap.

Re: AC Wall Unit
We had PC Richard do it 2 years ago. It was about $700 for 25,000 BTU, cutting the hole and installation.
