Yes, if the window is more than 50” high I don’t think the adapter will extend much farther to enclose the opening.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes, you can make it work. I had a very narrow horizontally sliding window, and without the extension panels, the main "faceplate" that the vent tube clicks into was just a couple centimeters too long. With a sharp pair of plastic snips (you could use a saw appropriate for plastic), we cut it down to fit perfectly in the horizontal opening. I did need to use heavy duty Gorilla Tape to ensure that the vent tube stays firmly in the vent "plate."
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Hi - You can absolutely install the window panels in a sliding window. The panel kit will accommodate a window opening from 20"-46". No special adapter kit required. We're glad you checked and hope you choose GE for all your cooling needs. All our best! Vikki@GEA
