Installing a portable AC is a fairly simple process that can be done in a few steps.

* Find a location: Choose a spot for your AC unit that's near a window and a power outlet. Make sure there's at least 20 inches of clearance around the unit for proper airflow.
* Attach the exhaust hose: Connect the exhaust hose to the AC unit and window adapter kit following the manufacturer's instructions.
* Set up the window adapter: Install the window adapter kit in your window to create a seal around the hose. You may need to cut the adapter to fit your specific window size.
* Position the hose: Run the exhaust hose to the window and connect it to the window adapter. Make sure the hose isn't bent or kinked.
* Seal any gaps: Use weather stripping or foam tape to seal any gaps around the window adapter for maximum cooling efficiency.
* Power on your AC: Plug in your AC unit and turn it on. Empty the water reservoir if necessary, depending on the model.
