For instance, if the room is heavily shaded, reduce capacity by 10%; if very sunny, increase by 10%. Add 600 BTUs per additional person if more than two people regularly occupy the room, and add 4,000 BTUs if the unit is used in a kitchen.

For some window frames, pilot holes are recommended before installing screws. Follow the detailed instructions provided in the included installation guide for a secure setup.
