Troubleshooting
Hose is not fitting securely.
Ensure you are using the correct size clamp clips for the 5" (125mm) hose. Tighten the clamp clips firmly around the connection points on both the appliance and the vent opening.
Reduced cooling efficiency or airflow.
Check for any kinks, bends, or obstructions in the hose. Ensure the hose is not crushed or stretched beyond its intended length. Clean any dust or debris from the hose interior.
Excessive noise or vibration.
Verify that the clamp clips are tightened securely to prevent air leaks. Ensure the hose is not touching vibrating surfaces. The insulation is designed to reduce noise; check for any damage to the insulation layer.
Hose seems too short or too long.
While the hose is 6m long, avoid stretching it taut. Ensure there are no sharp bends. If too long, carefully coil the excess hose without creating kinks. If too short, consider if a longer hose is available or if the AC unit can be repositioned.
