If you take the ceiling assembly off, the AC unit will almost knock you down with the amount of air it moves with the assembly removed. On a hot day, the AC just can't seem to move enough air to keep the unit cool, but if you remove the ceiling assembly, it will practically freeze you out. So my mod was to install this rotating register that you can open and close as needed. $14.71 on Amazon. These help the AC move a lot more air as it installed right where the fan is producing the most downward force.

Just search Amazon for JR Products ACG25DPW-A Polar White Adjustable Ceiling Vent.

What a great idea! Do you remember how big a hole you had to make in the assembly? Is it a regular circle saw size? Thanks for sharing.
I don't remember the exact hole size, something like 4.5 inches. But I just traced the vent out and drilled a 3/8" pilot hole and cut the rest out with a jig saw. Took about 5 minutes per cover to get it done.
