is this sleeve going to collect the water and keep it ?

The directions say it must be installed with it lower on the outside of the wall hole than the inside of the hole. In that way any water that gets inside because of condensation or rain will run to the outside of the unit. Good luck. Mine has been running 2 years straight with no stopping. I love it.

Not if installed properly. Instructions require a slight tilt to allow water to drain. BTW, GE sleeves useed with GE AC's are installed level and water drains properly. I recommend a GE sleeve fitted with the proper GE unit. I like the fact that you can install them level and the GE units fit nicely in the sleeve whereas the frigidaire fits loosely where you need to install a decorative cover to close off the opening and make it look nice. Also, a GE sleeve will accomdate a frigidiare, at least one that I used.

No. The sleeve goes in on a tilt. Water drains out the back to the outside.

No it will not collect any water and keep it. It is important to follow the installation instructions and tilt it the right way and water will never be a problem. For me it was easy to install, and it has perforations and holes in the right places so it will never retain any water. All water, whether it is rainwater or condensation, will drain away from the house.

We don't know, but it will keep water liquid until it gets into low below zeros. Then you may have only a small whole in the tank that is liquid.

It is held in place by magnetic attraction. With a sleeve on I doubt the magnet would be strong enough to keep it in place.

In my opinion, yes. Insulation works both ways, it would help retain the temp of water in a tank as well as help prevent the contents from gaining heat in the sun.

Yes. The top cover DOES "overlap" the bottom. However, there are several places where water can seep in (terminals, push button for charge gauge, and USB port). I would feel comfortable if not stored directly in the weather.

If it is a through the wall you need a sleeve. The sleeve allows the condensation to drain outside.

Yes I leave it up year around. It will sagIn the Middle a little and that is where water will collect and drip. I would think it would Block the sun in the winter making it colder unless positioned like a wall. It would keep the wind out. I hope thatHelps.

I just got mine but when it rains the water seems to bead up on it. I think it's going to work good keeping it outside all year.

No, some water will go through the product, but it keeps a large amount of water out. It's good, but not perfect.

I suppose so. The tray is loose hard plastic, and easy to rinse out, if you wish. I don't find that it collects water.

It should be fine but it might retain a little bit of water inside. I would make sure the water drains out the arms and legs if you do.

The lid seems to keep water out where I keep mine, it might be slightly sheltered under trees, but I havehad no problem.

It doesn't, since it's more like an all protective towards the computer and electronic stuff you have inside. You know water and electronics, not a very great idea :)

I suspect not. But let me remember to measure what I still have left unused. A hint might helpful to you - the device is designed permanently open and when backup happens, the float will be lifted and close. I found during the whole time when there is no backup, which is true for maybe the life of the device, it'll collect all kinds of debris so it can't really close tightly when it needs to. What I did was adding a spring to the top of the shaft connected to the float and make it permanently close. In case you have water on the floor to drain, just push the float down to drain it. But anyway, I'll come back to you about the size. I suspect not. But let me remember to measure what I still have left unused.

Yes, water does come through it. I don't think there's anyway you could hang it so it would not be ruined if water accumulated in it. Your stuff will get wet under it.

We have this in our sunroom where we have out swim spa. we are tracking water out of it all of the time and it doesn't seem to bother it if that is what you are wondering.

It is one complete piece and shouldn't have a problem with holding a little bit of water. Hope that helps.
