    Beats the heat

    I've had this unit since August, reviewing in December. Based in Houston, TX (hot weather!), living in a 1200 sq ft apartment on the top floor. The AC that the apartment came with can't keep up in the summer, so I purchased this unit to supplement it. Before installing, temps in the apartment got up to 77F during the day, the addition of this portable AC keeps it below 73 when in the large open living room. It now resides in my office to beat the heat generated by my workstation PC, and on full blast can keep the office in the mid 60s. Box came banged up pretty bad, but the foam packing kept the unit and accessories in perfect condition. Installation was easy, instructions weren't great but there isn't much to the setup so I figured it out quickly. I had to take a hacksaw to the window shroud to get it to fit in the window, and opted to seal the gaps using marine sealant. The unit is pretty loud regardless of fan setting, so I tend to keep it on high. It's more than enough to keep this one room cold. Only real complaints I have are with the automatic setting, which kicks back in less than a minute after it hits the target temperature. I'm better off running it on a lower fan speed with a set point well below where I expect it to cool to, so that it doesn't turn off for 10 seconds and start back up again.

    Cool thang

    Inverter unit works well cooling down my fairly large bedroom with many windows in sunny Los Angeles without tripping my ancient breakers. Purchased while i was stuck sitting around in a sweltering leg cast during the broiling Summer— so worth the cost to me/ I’m glad i spent the $ for a quality unit, the noise is tolerable what can you expect/? Otherwise, arrived undamaged despite shipping being delayed twice & I have seen it listed on sale for a lower price elsewhere.

    Best portable A/C in the universe!

    I am ecstatic over this air conditioner! It is incredibly quiet, especially on the lower settings. The thermostat is accurate, too, so I don't have to keep turning it on or off. It is just like central air. Plus, my electric bill for July was $50 less than usual. This a/c pays for itself. A truly excellent machine!

    Horrible Service

    AC errored out after 2 weeks. Whynter service only responds by email and communications take about 24 hours. They tell me to return it to BestBuy and BestBuy says to return it to the manufacture. If the AC works with out issue then it's a great machine, if you have a problem with it, just throw it away and buy a new one because nobody will help you with it.

Questions & Answers

  • What is the dB measurement on the quietest/lowest cooling setting?

    It all depends on the fan setting. Low fan, 28db; high fan 50db while no more than 1 foot away from the unit.

    Answered by SanDiskReview

  • Is there an installation kit made for this unit for a smaller window?

    I'm not sure about a smaller kit, but you could take the existing kit to your local home Depot or Lowes and have them cut it to the measurements of your window.

    Answered by AlanN

  • Is there a comparable piece for exhausting through a sliding glass door?

    The included window kit is designed to fit most standard vertically or horizontally sliding windows and measures, 9 3/4" W x 26" L (minimum) 49" L (maximum).
    Since windows come in different sizes, some customization may be needed when installing the accessories. If the included solid window kit slide bar panels do not completely cover your window or door opening, most customers purchase an additional window kit and use both sets. Alternately, a customized longer solid slide bar panel can be made by cutting Plexiglas or PVC plastic to size to be used with the panel with the hose cut outs of the original window kit.
    If you are interested in purchasing an additional window kit, contact our authorized dealers and please refer to part number ARC-WK-TYPENEX.

    Answered by Whynter Customer Service

  • How is the condensation drained. Can unit be unattended for long periods (months)?

    The air conditioner uses the patented auto drain or self-evaporative technology which exhausts condensation automatically in most environments. Please note that if the humidity is very high, the auto drain function will still exhaust the majority of the moisture. The remaining moisture will be collected in the water tank at the base of the air conditioner and continue to self-evaporate until the tank becomes full and requires manual drainage.

    If continuous drainage is necessary, the included hose can be installed to the upper drain port for continuous gravity drainage. When continuous drainage is set up, the collected moisture will be drained through the hose and not drain down into the water tank and will not self-evaporate.
