  • Key Specs
    • Recommended Room Size: 323 square feet (The recommended area size in which the product is designed to operate and produce optimal results, such as the desired heating or cooling. Generally, running a unit too big or too small for the space will result in ineffective operation and wasted energy.)
    • BTU Cooling Rating: 17000 british thermal units (The amount of BTUs (British Thermal Units) per hour the unit uses to cool the air, also known as cooling capacity. For best results, the capacity of the unit should be based on the size of the area it is intended to cool. For example, a 5,000 BTU capacity works optimally for a 150 square foot room. In general, an oversized unit will not effectively remove humidity, and an undersized unit will not cool the space efficiently.)
    • Number of Cool Settings: 3
    • Number of Fan Speeds: 3
    • Airflow Rate: 350 cubic feet per minute
    • Remote Control: true
    • Integrated Heater: true
    • Sleep Mode: false (Enabling this mode sets the unit to first reach the desired temperature, then gradually increase the temperature over a period of time until it reaches a new set temperature, typically several degrees higher than the initial cool setting. This mode helps save energy while keeping the room comfortable.)
    • Timer: true
    • Auto Shut-Off: true (Feature automatically turns off the product.)
    • Energy Efficiency Ratio: 12 (The ratio of output BTUs (British Thermal Units) to input electrical energy (watts) at a given operating point. Generally, the higher the number, the more efficient the unit. Though higher efficiency units are typically more expensive upfront, they may offset the price in energy costs over time.)
    • App Compatible: false (The product can be connected to a program or software application on a mobile device, which then receives collected data from the product.)

This Mini-Split Air Conditioner with heat pump system provides 17,000 BTU of cooling and heating - designed to cool and heat rooms up to 320 sq. ft. This model’s variable speed inverter ensures this is achieved quietly and efficiently! This unit is DOE certified, so it's designed to help save you money, and the low-temperature operation and heat pump make it a year-round solution for your home, office, or cottage. In addition, the active carbon air filter helps remove contaminants and impurities from the air, and the turbo mode feature enables the unit to reach pre-set temperatures quickly. There’s also an Anti-Cold Draft feature that blocks cold air from entering your space while the unit is in heating mode.

  • 21.0 SEER rating DoE certified: Saves you a considerable amount for heating and cooling.
  • Low temp operation: Operates at temperatures as low as 5F/-15C, making it ideal for scenarios that require year-round cooling, while the Heat Pump makes it a 4-season solution.
  • Active carbon air filter: Helps to remove contaminants and impurities in the air, and dual washable filters that provide quality air for your home.
  • Turbo mode: Enables the unit to reach the pre-set temperature in the shortest time.
  • Louver angle memory: When the unit is turned on, the louver will automatically revert to the last stored position.
  • Ready to use: Comes pre-charged with R410-A refrigerant.
  • Variable speed inverter: Designed to cool and heat rooms up to 323 sq. ft. with variable speed inverter - ensuring this is achieved quietly and efficiently.

Q: Are you able to install this yourself..? And does it come with the hoses for the installation

A: Hello, thank you for your inquiry. The model DAS170GBHWDB should be installed by a certified HVAC technician. It is not a self-install unit, and it comes with all the accessories required for the installation. Regards, Apratim

Q: Under “Features” you claim Low Temp Operation to 5 F (-15C), but the Owners Manual recommends ambient temperatures above 19 F (-7 C) for Heat Mode. What is the correct ambient temperature limit for heat pump operation?

A: Hi Matt, Thanks for your inquiry! The discrepancy arises because the "Low Temp Operation" feature refers to the heat pump's capability to operate down to -15°C (5°F) under ideal conditions. However, the recommended operating range in the Owner's Manual (above -7°C/19°F) reflects the temperature range where the unit performs most efficiently and reliably for heating. Regards, Jog
