Install AC window kit

£40

Upton Park, Greater London

23rd May 2026

Task Description: Hi there! I need a professional to help set up my portable air conditioner and install a fabric window seal kit in my room. Everything is unboxed and ready to go in the room. The task involves: 1. Cleaning/wiping down the uPVC window frame so the tape sticks well. 2. Applying the adhesive Velcro tape around the frame and the window sash (it’s a 300cm kit, top-hung awning window). 3. Attaching the fabric seal neatly so there are no gaps and no excess hanging on the sides. 4. Hooking up the AC exhaust hose through the fabric zip and plugging the unit in to make sure it runs properly. I have the AC unit and the complete 300cm window seal kit with tape ready for you. You just need to bring a pair of scissors to cut the tape and some surface cleaner/cloth to prep the window frame. You'll have to reach quite high for the window as I can provide a chair to stand on and reach the window and do the job. Should take around 45 minutes Note: You'll have to take your shoes off when come inside the house or wear shoe covers that i can provide. Also, the address is incorrect on the site for some reason i can't change, I'll send the address once i accept your offer.
