Installation & Setup Advice

Quick & Easy Venting All portable air conditioners need to vent warm exhaust air outside to cool your room effectively. The Woods Cortina XL comes complete with a 1.5-metre flexible exhaust hose and a window kit included in the box, meaning you can set it up to vent through a window, wall, or even a door opening for rapid single-room cooling.

UK Window Adaptability To get the absolute best out of this unit's massive 18,000 BTU capacity, proper sealing is key. If you have standard push-out casement windows, we highly recommend adding a Universal Window Seal Kit to your basket. This will properly seal the gaps around your window, locking the cold air in and drastically improving cooling performance and efficiency in larger spaces.

Important Delivery Info As a high-capacity, professional-grade unit, this air conditioner is built with powerful inverter components and weighs 27kg. If your delivery address involves a flight of stairs or tricky access, we strongly recommend having a second person available on delivery day to help safely lift and position the package in your desired room.
