I've finally had enough of the heat and bought a window AC for the bedroom to supplement the central AC so I'm not running it all night to cool one room. But I've tried 2 different window AC units, and for the life of me cannot get the recommended 3/4" to 1" of tilt angle the both called for. I have pretty standard 90/00s vinyl double hung windows. The sill is about 4" wide, with a lip only on the inside that the sash sits behind when the window is closed. The "feet" of the AC sit directly behind that lip on the horizontal sill perfectly fine. When you close the window the top bar on the AC is supposed to be on the inside of the bottom of the sash. Even removing the handle from the window, the unit sits level. It seems like a design flaw that the top support bar doesn't have multiple positions. I played with chunks of wood, but the only way I can get the angle to to bring the "feet" inside the sill lip. Then it's in so far that the side panels no longer line up with the side channels of the window frame. Am I being dense here, or is this just a poor design on both brands I've tried?

I had a new Thermal Zone furnace put in last winter. It’s been working fine since. The AC was also working fine through the summer so far until a couple of days ago. The compressor fan tried to run, but the blower fan in the basement doesn’t. I turned it off over night, and tried to start it up yesterday morning. The blower fan kicked on for a minute, and I had cool air from the vents. But then it turned off again and hasn’t started again since. The air filter was wet with condensation, so I took that out as a trial. That didn’t help. I put new batteries in the thermostat, and that didn’t change anything. There are no blown fuses that I can see. It’s a brand new unit, so I wouldn’t expect a bad capacitor or worn out ball bearings. Any thoughts?
