Pls help!!?
I've just bought a portable or mobile air conditioner which by right needs venting.
I've opted to vent the hose thru window but my concern is, wouldn't rain water sip into the hose going through straight into the machine during bad weather when I'm not home and iit's not being used?
It makes common sense to know there's a possibility of lot of water going thru that opened hose which doesn't have a flap when it rains heavily even on cold nights when the stuff isn't running. Mine has a heater so it's a year round use one.
No manufacturer of portable ac has been able to state in manual about this.
Please help me with some professional or logical answers. Thanks

There typically is a slanted cover that comes with those vents where if it rains the water hit the cover and slides off. The bottom is open so its like a roof almost. Hard to explain but google it and youll see. Water getting in the pipe would be rare but bugs would be a bigger deal.
