FAQs
Will this fit all portable air conditioners?
No, this is specifically designed for units requiring a 5-inch (125mm) diameter hose. Always measure your unit's exhaust port before buying.
Can I cut the hose if it is too long?
Yes, you can trim the hose to your desired length using wire cutters for the steel coil and heavy-duty scissors for the foil/fabric.
Is the material heat-resistant?
Yes, the hose is rated for temperatures ranging from -30°C to +150°C, making it safe for the heat exhausted by portable air conditioning units.
Does it come with a window seal kit?
No, this product is the hose extension pipe only. Window sealing kits are typically sold separately.
How do I ensure the hose lasts a long time?
Avoid over-stretching the material beyond its capacity and prevent sharp kinks that can weaken the internal coil structure.
Troubleshooting
Hose keeps collapsing during use
Ensure the internal steel coil is not damaged. If the hose is pulled to its absolute maximum, let it retract slightly to allow the coil to support the weight better.
Air is leaking from the connection point
Check that the diameter of the unit's outlet is exactly 5 inches (125mm) and ensure you are using a secure jubilee clip or tightening ring to seal the connection.
Unit is blowing hot air back into the room
Ensure the vent hose is properly exhausted out of a window or vent and is not obstructed by debris or sharp kinks in the tubing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before installation, ensure your unit has a clear 5-inch (125mm) interface. To install, gently slide the hose end over your air conditioner’s exhaust port and secure it with an appropriate clamp or connector supplied with your unit. When maneuvering the hose, avoid sharp bends that might crush the internal steel wire. For cleaning, wipe the exterior with a damp cloth; avoid submerging the hose in water or using harsh chemical cleaners that could degrade the foil lining. When not in use, retract the hose to its 260mm length and store it in a cool, dry place to prolong the life of the materials.
