- Key Specs
- Recommended Room Size: 500 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.)
- DOE SACC Cooling Power: 8884.5 british thermal units (The Seasonally Adjusted Cooling Capacity (SACC), implemented by the Department of Energy (DOE) after 2017, is a rating of a portable AC unit's cooling power. This rating is based on revised testing that more accurately measures a portable unit's performance, taking into account that these units do not vent heat in the same way as wall or window units and therefore were not cooling as effectively as the previous BTU ratings indicated (based on the ASHRAE-128 standard prior to 2017). Generally, the new cooling power ratings are lower than previous BTU ratings and can more reasonably be compared to the cooling capacities of other types of AC units.)
- ASHRAE Cooling Power: 14000 british thermal units (The American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) rates the cooling power, or capacity, of portable AC units based on their effectiveness in cooling a single room as intended. Prior to 2017, this was the accepted standard used for comparison with other types of AC units. However, it did not accurately reflect the cooling power as it did not account for the heat emitted from the unit that would circulate back into the space. The Department of Energy (DOE) Seasonally Adjusted Cooling Capacity (SACC) standard is now used to determine appropriate BTU ratings of portable AC units.)
- Number of Cool Settings: 3
- Number of Fan Speeds: 3
- Airflow Rate: 222 cubic feet per minute
- Remote Control: true
- Integrated Heater: false
- Sleep Mode: true (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: false (Feature automatically turns off the product.)
- Window Venting Kit: true (Indicates whether supplies for venting the unit through a window are included.)
- Energy Efficiency Ratio: 11.2 (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.)
- Combined Energy Efficiency Ratio (CEER): 7.07 (The standard used to measure energy efficiency in window and room air conditioners by the Department of Energy (DOE) as of June of 2014. CEER measures the ratio of output BTUs (British Thermal Units) to input electrical energy (watts) in standby mode and while the unit is operating. 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.)
- Wireless Connectivity: None (The manner in which a device sends data to another device over a short distance without the use of wires or cables.)
- Air Conditioner Type: Portable
- Hose Configuration: Dual (Generally, dual hose configurations are more efficient and better suited for cooling larger areas. Single hose configurations typically consume less energy and are best for cooling smaller spaces.)

Q: What is the maximum noise level of this air conditioner?
A: The maximum noise level is 52 decibels adjusted.
Q: Does this portable air conditioner come with a window venting kit?
A: Yes, a window venting kit is included with this portable air conditioner.
Q: How many fan settings does this portable air conditioner have?
A: This unit has 3 fan settings.
Q: What is the cooling capacity of this Whynter air conditioner?
A: This Whynter air conditioner has a cooling capacity of 500 square feet.
Q: Can I control the temperature settings even when I am not home?
A: This unit features a 24-hour programmable timer that allows you to regulate the indoor climate even when you're away.
Q: Does this air conditioner have a washable filter?
A: Yes, this air conditioner comes with a washable filter for easy maintenance.
A: A dual hose system is the only type of portable a/c to consider. This is why. A/C units work in two parts, condenser and evaporator. The condenser is normally outside and the evaporator inside. Air flows through the condenser and cools the hot Freon which then goes to the evaporator and is expanded which makes it cold. Room air circulates through it and cools your room. The hoses are for the condenser side or hot side. With two hoses outside air comes in and passes through the condenser and is expelled outside as hot air from cooling the condenser Freon. In a single hose system the room air is passed through the condenser and expelled outside. This is not very efficient as your wasting your conditioned air to cool the condenser then venting the hot air overboard. This also causes a negative pressure which will cause hot outside air to be sucked into the room through every crack to equalize the pressure.
Q: Can the window hose kit installed in 16" horizontal window?
A: The window kit is designed to fit most standard horizontally or vertically sliding windows. The included window kit measures, 6.5" W x 20" L (minimum), 46" (maximum). If it is too large for your window, the kit can be cut to size. We are happy to provide any technical support or product information.
