Air Conditioner in Finished Basement

Anyone have one? How is it installed? Is it portable?

My parents have one. It's in a wall where the other side of the wall is a storage closet that is unfinished.

We have one in our basement apartment that we use in the summer. It's a portable one that we vent through one of the windows.

We will be putting one in our basement through the window.

But we first have to get new windows. The ones we have don't open the correct way.

I have Central Air in my basement. It was a necessity since it is my sons' playroom and we're down here all the time.

Re: Air Conditioner in Finished Basement

We don't have a finished basement, but we have casement windows throughout the house (I HATE them, and they are all going in the garbage when we get the house worked on!)

Anyway..... we have a portable AC in DS's room, and I made some triangular sections of plywood to put at the top and bottom of the casement window when we opened it enough to put the vent through. For the other rooms, we have in-window AC units, and I had to make a plexiglass panel to fit in the opening, since I had to completely remove the casement window to put the AC in.

BTW, if you do get a portable one, get one of the types that pumps the water out on its own. The one we have does that, and we never have to empty the reservoir, or worry about it getting moldy.
