Yes. We regularly install custom panels for condos, apartments, and rental properties throughout Metro Vancouver.
In most cases, yes. Our clear acrylic panels are designed to maintain a clean, low-visibility appearance from the exterior and are often far more discreet than traditional portable AC venting methods. Final approval requirements may vary depending on your individual strata bylaws.
We work with many common window styles including sliding windows, casement windows, awning windows, and sliding doors. We also regularly install custom venting solutions over wood-burning fireplaces utilizing the chimney for hot air exhaust.

Yes. In addition to our standard clear acrylic panels, we also offer:
– Frosted privacy acrylic

Our tinted options have a clean “sunglasses lens” appearance while still allowing light through. These upgraded finishes are popular for reducing visibility, glare, and improving appearance on certain window styles.
Tinted and frosted acrylic options typically add approximately $50 to the project cost.

Our standard installation method uses industrial-grade hook-and-loop fastening strips with high-temperature adhesive rated up to 120°C. This is not typical craft-store Velcro — it is specifically designed to withstand the heat generated by both your portable AC exhaust and direct sunlight, while still allowing the panel to be removable when needed.
Yes — in most cases, your blinds can still function normally.
Depending on the type of blinds you have, some can simply drape over the exhaust hose, while others can be lowered to the height of the hose opening.
For customers who prefer maximum darkness while sleeping, we also offer tinted panel options that help reduce light transmission at night.

We provide a custom-fit window security rod designed to work with our panel systems while the window is in the closed position, helping prevent the window from being forced open.
We also offer upgraded high-impact Lexan material for customers looking for maximum durability and security. Unlike standard acrylic, Lexan is extremely impact resistant and can withstand significant blunt force without failing.
Lexan upgrades are available at an additional cost.
