Best idea I've seen so far, thank you! I thought of a similar thing but with a wooden panel but indeed your materials would be much cheaper and would work just fine!

Good idea! Thanks.

Went ahead and smashed that like button because you’re smart, crafty and helpful sir lol while I may not actually do this looking at a window seal you get off Amazon and then watching you carefully craft a well insulated homemade one that likely works 10x as good as 30 bucks on Amazon. Very cool!

Wow, by far the best tip I've seen so far for making your own window seal, probably better than close cloth versions and this one can be attached to the mosquito wire screen.. Thanks for the idea!

Does it work?

On mine the middle glass is woblly, moves when you close the door

Use a concrete spur, far more solid.

What is the thickness of the angles?

Fantastic 👍super cheap and so easy Thanks for sharing me this VD🙏

Really good video thank you

GREAT STUFF

Genius !!!

I just use my window screen for my insulation frame, all because I have the crank casement windows, that way I still have option to open and close it on a rainy day without removing the insulation i have a backup window ac in my bathroom that slides up and down, for a back up when it rain out to fill in for the portable ac.

I ended up using twin wall Polycarbonate sheet from b&q cut it to fit . Applied hook & eye tape to secure to the window frame. And when not in use I either pull of the frame to close the window or wrap some insect screen around the opening with a reusable cable tie to stop bugs coming in. Been working brilliantly in this heat. 😄

Informative, but try to speak next time.

Thanks so much for this video. I used your technique to make a seal for a much smaller window and it worked perfectly. Thanks for taking the time to make this.

We have rolladens that I pull down to clamp the exhaust down and make it dark. Could I skip the insulation foil?

Just done this ahead of the 40c heatwave. Works great!

excellent.. will be doing this tomorrow

My window is on the second floor and does open into the room. how do i fasten it?

I cant find that silver sheet to buy. What do i look for?

Where's the hole for your drain line?

Great! Thank you

Been searching for this solution a long time, everything else would ‘t stay in window. Instead of Velcro I used gorilla heavy duty mounting tape, worked like a charm! 👍

You inspired me. Out of all the videos/possibilities i have watched, this is the setup i am going to. Price/isolation/weight combination is perfect. I might tweak it a bit. Thank you.👍

Thank you so much. This has been really helpful x

A small concrete knee post would be quicker....your making a pigs ear out of that!

Thank you! This was super helpful. I followed your guidance and had great success with a "leaner". Good karma in your general direction. Thank you.

Great job fixing the fence but did your missus knock you out when she saw her garden table???? lol

I attempted this. Fingers crossed it works!! Thanks so much for sharing! One question- did you remove the screen from your window? If so, how are you preventing bugs from coming in through the exhaust?

Why is the foil sheet pointing towards the room? Shouldn’t it be pointing outside? Awesome job btw! I’m gonna do this.

I'm having issues I just changed the battery and changed the casing or (key fob) and my remote doesn't work my mirrors won't fold out .... do I need to do what you did remove the battery and place it under the steering wheel then add the battery in the key fob ..... the SUV does start but my remote won't work do I have to press something for a few seconds?

looks good, I have a similar problem with a 10' wood fence, except whoever put it in didn't put any concrete in around the posts on my yard side, just in the easement where it was easy to access when they built it, so now half of the backside leans inward. I don'[t have allot of time at home from work to do anything so this may work for me. A tip though, always mix your concrete in a 5 gallon bucket for each post with a drill and mixer blade, and prewet the hole so the soil doesn't wick away the water fromt he concrete mix leading to a weak layer on the outside.

Thank you so much... This is brilliant! You did a fantastic job. So much so that I just followed your directions and made one of these for a Newair AC-10100E. We just moved into a house, and the window screens are inside the window glass. This seal is perfect for that. It even allows for removing the seal and opening the window quickly when the air conditioner is not in use. The only thing I changed was that I used a thinner sheet of foam core and wrapped it in insulation on both sides for a slimmer profile. I also covered the edges of the hole with duct tape after adding the insulation, similar to how you wrapped it earlier in the video when you reinforced the edges around the polystyrene before applying the insulation. So basically, I did it twice to complete the hole, making it durable enough that the hose can be removed intermittently when the seal is not in use. I also made sure that the foam core was wholly sealed from moisture. I then added a gasket along the edge in places that didn't have velcro. When installed, the hose is flush with the windscreen which automatically protects the open end of the hose and prevents problems with pests. I live in Hawaii, and the sun is really intense here all year round and heats up homes in no time during the day. I'm using this in conjunction with the De'Longhi insulated hose cover, and the unit cools my office quickly. The hose cover is a MUST-HAVE for any portable air conditioner owner. It's night and day, in terms of the performance and efficiency of the unit. The hose cover prevents heat from escaping into the room from the exhaust hose. The De'Longhi one WORKS. The hose is barely warm to the touch even after using the unit for a few hours. My office is about 135 sq ft with a 20 ft sloped ceiling that heats up dramatically in the late afternoon sun. This seal is a headache saver. Thanks again.

thank you very helpful

Thank you for this informative video. My Discovery Sport just started chiming at me so will be topping up tonight using your clever formula.

Looks exactly like mine, even the crossbars. Question: Do you have a problem with loud humming in your front end/windshield area at spontaneous times? I started noticing this vibration/noise in what seemed like the time period after having my crossbars and rails installed. Maybe it was something that was coming on anyway, I don't know, all I know is they didn't know what was causing it as it never did it to them when they had it (of course). Then, I noticed the cover to the rear view mirror wiring was lifting on the passenger side, and before I knew it, my windshield started leaking. They replaced the windshield, and I was praying that would fix that noise, but it still does it, but it doesn't seem as loud as before. Time will tell. Does any of this sound familiar?

Good helpful repair technique ...... ditch the bloody annoying music though

The key is made of cheap plastic, it kept on breaking into pieces.

I never thought of that. I’ll give it a go today

very helpful; thank you so much!

Great job looks good keep your videos coming Salt Lake City Utah

Excellent job 😎

It seemed like you'll be doing a lot of repair on your fence. Some are sagging already. Good luck!

Great idea thanks for sharing .!! 👍🏻

the board I use 3 layer. 2 layer of thick plywood and polystyrene in the middle bacause polystyrene alone can broken crack easily

Making this today!! Best idea ever.

Very well done. I want to cool my garage occasionally and want to do a scaled-up version of this for the service door. I would open the service door and place this in the frame so the hot air can vent outside.
