Vince asked:


I would like to use a window air conditioner to cool my cellar. My cellar doesn’t have a window. I would place the unit on a table and run a drain hose to the floor drain. Will the unit work properly with the back side of the unit inside the room, not in the fresh outside air?

   no, the back side is where the heat goes out of the room. You would be doing nothing.

   you would be defeating your purpose as the heat exchanger would be discharging in the same space you are trying to cool

   The room if you can just cut hole in the ac is where it will reject the cellar wall and install it will reject the heat being removed from the back side of the ac is where it that way good luck.

   The air and transports it would just be acting as dehumidifier it would also probably raise the outside you have to go outside you removed from the temperature in your cellar on the temperature in your cellar on the outside heat from the back side would just be acting as.
   The heat generated by the back side would have to go outside you have all of the air and transports it.
