be directed to the unit and the hot air must be exhausted out of the room to complete the air  
exchange. When the unit is operating on fan or heating models, no outdoor air exchange  
takes place. You do not need to hookup the window kits and exhaust hose when you use the  
unit as a fan or a heater.
