  Floor to ceiling was a tiny hyperbole. The actual window does go almost floor to ceiling, but it’s 2 panes. The topmost one has a sliding window with a fly screen. Couldn’t tell you dimensions, but it’s somewhat large

  The exhaust pipe has a little piece of plastic at the end that looks kind of like a semi-circle. I guess the idea being you can push the window a lot closer to closed

  The larger problem is that the blinds are very rigid and are easily damaged in the sort of position I had them in the OP. Opening them means that the neighbours can see directly into my bedroom which I’m not a huge fan of, but they also get partial sun and aren’t double glazed or anything fancy like that

  I put my high velocity fan outside my door just in front of the top of the exhaust fan, and that’s actually working decently enough. I realise it will still overall heat my house, but it made my room drop maybe a degree or two over the span of about an hour, and was pleasant to sit in front of

    Ok. They sound like my windows that run from floor to almost the ceiling with sliding windows left to right.

    Also in relation to your exhaust pipe, I think you might have an attachment at the end of the exhaust hose which is the shape you’re describing to me.

    I had a bracket that came with my which was a small plastic board with a hole and you attach the exhaust to it.

    I measured it up and bought some wood and stuck it altogether with nails so that it would stand upright in the window with the sliding window holding it in place to vent the hot air out.

    Something like that might work for you possibly.

    You also need to cap off and angle the nails if you use them else you’ll tear the fly wire screen.
