My window ac doesn't want to give me the nice cool air right outside. I pull the vent lever, but just get stale, recirculated air from indoors. I have it set to "Fan".

So I don't do acs but it sounds like the compressor
OP says they're using fan only mode, which doesn't use the compressor.
The issue is stated by another user in the thread.
I have an exhaust fan at the far end of my house that sucks air into whatever other windows are open. In particular, it helps cool my bedroom on Summer nights.
The vent lever opens a door the size of a couple of postage stamps. It's not going to be very noticeable.
If you want a lot of outside air, you'll need to buy a window fan.
thanks, i'll have to examine my options.
This is exactly what I was going to post. Get a screen for the window and open it up, or use one of those magnetic door screens and keep the door open.
