FAQs
Is this kit compatible with other air conditioner brands?
This kit is specifically designed for Logik units with a 125mm (5 inch) exhaust port, though it may fit other brands using the same standard diameter.
Can I cut the hose to a shorter length?
Yes, you can trim the hose to your desired length using wire cutters for the steel coil and heavy-duty scissors for the PVC and foil layers.
Does the aluminium lining contain hazardous materials?
No, the lining is a standard aluminium foil used for thermal insulation and is safe for use in residential environments.
How do I ensure the best seal?
Always use the included clamps for mechanical security and the sealing tape to create an airtight thermal barrier.
What is the minimum length of the hose?
The hose retracts to a minimum length of 180mm for compact storage or tight installations.
Troubleshooting
Air is escaping at the connection points.
Ensure the stainless steel clamps are fully tightened and apply the included sealing tape to bridge any gaps between the connector and the hose.
The hose is sagging over long distances.
Use additional supports or cable ties to secure the hose if it is stretched close to its 6-meter maximum to prevent weight strain.
Restricted airflow performance.
Check the hose for any kinks or compressed sections and ensure the path to the window vent is as straight as possible.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, first ensure your AC unit is powered off. Connect the hose to your unit's exhaust port using the provided 5-inch connector ring. Use the included stainless steel clamp clips to secure the hose tightly to both the unit and the window vent interface, tightening with a screwdriver until firm. Wrap the joints with the provided sealing tape to prevent air leaks. To care for your hose, avoid sharp bends that may stress the steel coil. Periodically inspect the PVC sleeve for debris or signs of wear, and wipe with a damp cloth if dust accumulates on the exterior.
