Looking for a window fan that can blow in cool air at night and seal up reasonably well during the day when it's hot and I use the AC. Any advice? Yes I've searched the internet but I've gotten ambiguous results. PS: this needs to be installable on a slider window.

@Huesmann is correct in that I am looking for a fan that seals up reasonably tight when not in use. It's typically 90-110F in the summer, but we get cool nights (<55F). So I'd love to pump cold air in at night, but have it sealed tight during the heat of the day. I am not finding anything commercially, especially that works for horizontally sliding windows. I did find an "Air King" window fan that allows the window to close behind it (ideal!!), but it is unclear whether the install would work for slider windows.

Are there window fans that seal up when not in use?
