I asked this question last week and am still waiting for answer. Can this unit be used through the wall rather than window
Answered by LG Digital Customer CareThe 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
Answered by LG Digital Customer CareHello, 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.

Does this unit use regular outlet
Answered by LG Digital Customer CareAs 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.
