    Ah, that makes sense.

    Btw: RV/Camping stores often sell ACs with two hoses. This prevents underpressure pulling hot air in again

      ACs with two hoses

      I searched for those, but haven’t seen any available anywhere here in Germany any more, seem to have vanished from the market.
      I heard that is an unintended side-effect of EU regulation regarding efficiency.
      The two-hose-variants on paper have a lower efficiency, as for the efficiency calculation the pulled in hot outside air is not considered.
      So the manufacturers just don’t bother selling them anymore here…
