[quote:Quinnotaur:MV8yMjk3MzU5XzM5MTE0NTQzXzI1NjA3RDI5] In my opinion anytime the outside air is cooler than the indoor air you should take advantage of that and turn the fan from exhaust to intake and shut down the A/C (unless you want the indoor air cooled past the point of the available outside air). Additionally, I would only use it as an exhaust if the A/C had been off and the room became very hot and then only exhaust long enough to give the A/C a chance to catch up. When your A/C is running you shouldn't be using the exhaust because you are practically blowing money out of the window. I suspect that's why it seems your A/C can't keep up although without knowing room height, window size, how much southern exposure and B.T.U capacity of the unit it's not possible to tell if the unit itself is undersized.

I have a room with 2 windows one on my left side and one on my right side.
The one on the right side has a mobile airconditioner with a tube blowing hot air outside the room and blowing cool air in.
The one on my left is a regular fan witch i've put in front of the window as an exhaust fan.
It's getting dark now and it's cooler outside than inside.
Now my question is:
Should i use the regular fan as intake and not as exhaust fan or just close that window?
The room is 5X10 meters, and the airco is not powerfull enough alone.
What would give the best results?
