    Damaged on arrival

    AC works great. Had to return the first one because it came with multiple large dents. Packaging undamaged so damage was done at factory and shipped that way. Scratch had touch up paint on it. Had delivered to my house. Had to return to store. No issues there. Cools my whole house in no time. Like the Alexa app feature.

    LG 18000 btu dual inverter

    I had a 15000 btu lg that got damaged and quite working bought this 18000 and it doesn’t cool as quick as the 15000 did I’m very disappointed. Our house is only 850 square feet and I thought getting a bigger unit would cool faster but it doesn’t. It’s nice that it’s quiet compared to the other one but that’s it. It was bent up on the inside by the coils but the housing was not bent so had to be bent at the factory not during shipping. After running all afternoon it mad it to 79 degrees in the house when it was 101 outside and now it is 77 in the house and it’s 74 outside. Our 15000 kept it 72 in the entire house I should have just bought the same one again.

    UPS delivered a damaged AC

    It's not Best Buy's fault that this AC was damaged upon delivery. It was shipped from Texas to Pembroke Pines, Florida by a 3rd party transporter, UPS. It appears the unit was dropped, tossed about, and not transported in a professional manner. Best Buy promptly refunded my account and I eventually purchased the same AC from Home Depot for $100 less and received it within 3 days.

  • I asked this question last week and am still waiting for answer. Can this unit be used through the wall rather than window

    The LG 1,000 Sq. Ft. 18,000 BTU 230V Smart Inverter Window Air Conditioner - White, Model # LW1822IVSM, is a WINDOW AIR CONDITIONER, and as such, a standard single-hung or double-hung window is required for proper installation. All side louvers on the unit must remain exposed to the outside of the structure and unobstructed. Non-window installations, including using sleeves, wall openings, and other installation methods, are not recommended...^Ivan.

  • Can this unit be mounted through the wall and provide a picture of the plug

    Hello, Sue! Thank you for sharing your question with us about the LG Window Air Conditioner (LW1822IVSM). No, this model is designed strictly as a window unit and cannot be mounted through a wall, since its chassis and venting system are engineered for proper airflow clearance in a window installation. For power, it uses a 230‑volt, 3‑prong plug that requires a dedicated 230V outlet. You can explore the full feature list and support details here: https://www.bestbuy.com/product/lg-1000-sq-ft-18000-btu-230v-smart-inverter-window-air-conditioner-white/J7G5655KSL. For more details, you can review the LW1822IVSM installation guide or check the plug specifications. If you’d like tailored support, please email us at lgdigitalcare@lg.sprinklrsupport.com. — Avril

  • Does this unit use regular outlet

    As indicated in the header, the LG 18,000 BTU 1,000 Sq. Ft. 230V Smart Window Air Conditioner - White, Model # LW1822IVSM, is a "230V" unit, so it cannot use the standard household outlet rated at 120 V, 60 Hz. The air conditioner must be plugged into a standard 240 V, 3-wire grounding receptacle rated 15 A / 240 VAC/ 60 Hz, protected by a 15 A time delay fuse or a 15 A circuit breaker. The NEMA configuration for the receptacle is NEMA 6-15R, which is a 3-wire, 2-pole grounding receptacle rated for 15 Amps and 250 Volts)...^Ivan.
