There is no single answer to this question. The exhaust of a window AC is cooling air that is drawn in usually from the sides of the AC unit. In the process this air may pick up moisture from condensation inside of the machine and may pick up dust from the evaporator coil inside the unit. I have seen some old units that are dirty and the exhaust if full of dust.
This dust is most likely an irritant and may contain allergens such as dust, pollen and spores which are not good but usually don't fit the definition of toxic. The one conceivable exception to this would be if you have a toxic mold growing in the area being air conditioned or inside the evaporation pan of the unit. Also keep in mind almost all newly manufactured consumer goods are coated with an organic coating that evaporates over the life of the machine. Especially when hot. That "new" smell that electrical equipment often has when it is first operated is a blend of odors from paint solvents, plasticizes, lubricants, plastic resin, etc. The concentrations are so small a single exposure is probably harmless but one must wonder what effect they have over a lifetime.

it exhaust the air
Can you put a fan behind a ac window unit for exhaust?
yes
Is there a problem with installing a window unit to cool the inside of a house where the back or exhaust part of the unit leads to an enclosed patio with warmer temperature instead of outside air?
As long as the patio is well vented to the outside.A window AC unit will only cool about 30 degrees cooler than the outside air, and if the patio is not vented, the patio will warm up and make the AC pointless.
Is it toxic to operate a window air conditioner indoors?
No, not toxic. Just silly. The air conditioner works on exchanging heat for cool. If you run the ac unit indoors, it will actually get warmer!
How do you find the oil sending unit on a 2002 chrysler sebring?
It is on the back of the engine, Under the exhaust manifold.
The maytage 6000BTU air conditioner has been leaking into the wall it is a window unit?
Make sure the unit is slightly tilted back in the window so it can drain, if the unit is still leaking you may need to remove the unit and cover to clean out the drain it may have a blocked drain.
What is the difference between a window unit air conditioner and a portable air conditioner?
Yes, they can work very well but you have to be aware of how to position them for best cooling effect: you can't just stand a portable air conditioning unit in the middle of the room, as if it was a room heater. Always place the portable AC unit next to a window opening (or similar) so that all (100%) of the hot air from the unit gets sent outside the room you are trying to cool. If you let any of the hot air from the unit get back into the room you will just be wasting electricity. There are some tricks to get the most out of a portable AC. First, insulate the exhaust hose. Even something simply like wrapping the exhaust hose with towels, or modifying a hot water heater insulation blanket to cover the exhaust hose can yield huge improvements in the performance of the air conditioner because the exhaust hose radiates a lot of heat back into the room during normal operation. Another hint - I nearly always recommend that our customers buy a dual hose portable air conditioner because they are more efficient and typically cool better than single hose units.
Where is the water temp sending unit on a 1992 ford f150 4.9 located?
On the passenger side, way back, under the exhaust manifold.
Window inserted new 15k ac unit shoots water droplets out of the blower vent it blows cold air but water drops are annoying why is this happeneng outside temp is 85-105 humid or is it bad?
if your window unit is setting too level, the water can not escape. proper setting of a window unit would be at a SLIGHT tilt so the water can run to the back (outside) of the unit and drain outside. If the water lays in the pan of the unit it will eventually rust through the drip pan and the blower can bow water back into your room. Hope this helped.
Will I have to remove my exhaust fan to install the unit?
You will not have to remove your exhaust fan if you wish to install this unit as a matter of fact these two do not have any co-relation
Do you have to mount a window ac unit?
Yes in a anderson flexivent window
Can you run a window air conditioner unit that was on its side?
Not right away. Theres oil in the compressor that will run out into the coils. The window unit needs to sit upright and have the oil run back into the compressor. A rule of thumb is for every hour on it side let the unit sit upright the same amount before running. This applys to window and common kitchen refrigerators. The idea is to get most of the oil back where it belongs, lubricating the compressor. After a long storage period it's safest to wait at least 24 hrs before starting.
