Window ac unit in a sealed room?

[grassfarmer]

I posted the same question in another forum but it might be more appropriate here. I was contemplating doing a sealed room, but cant afford a giant ac, or swamp chiller. I have a 15000 btu window unit and was wondering if that would work for 3 kw in sealed room. I thought of building a box for the ac, and have seen threads on that, but really wondered it it would work for a sealed room. Anyone?

I wish I fucking had a window unit like that.
I exhaust through my cieling, 6 inch hole, flange, duct attached. It would be a bitch to seal around the ac unit though the way I have my window sealed now.?
I am not too handy, and wouldn't know how to build a box for the ac unit that got the cool air in without letting in any light you know? My window is fucked up. Not a normal window.

are you going to use co2? yes it will work, its around 3-4btu per 1000w so you are good.
