Danby - DAC120EB8WDB 550 Sq. Ft. Window Air Conditioner - White
- Key Specs
- Recommended Room Size: 550 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: 12000 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: 310 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: 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.)
- Combined Energy Efficiency Ratio (CEER): 12 (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.)

Q: Does it use an environmentally friendly refrigerant?
A: Yes, this air conditioner uses an environmentally friendly refrigerant called R32. R32 has a lower Global Warming Potential (GWP) compared to other refrigerants like R410a, making it a more sustainable choice.
Q: What is the minimum and maximum window opening size required for installation?
A: The minimum window opening size required for installation is 23 inches in width and 14.5 inches in height. The maximum window opening size required for installation is 36 inches in width and 14 inches in height.
Q: How noisy is this air conditioner when operating?
A: The maximum noise level of the Danby DAC120EB8WDB 550 Sq. Ft. Window Air Conditioner is 61 decibels adjusted.
Q: Can I adjust the air direction to suit my room layout?
A: Yes, you can adjust the air direction to suit your room layout. This Danby air conditioner features 4-way air direction, allowing you to customize the airflow to your liking.
Q: What type of controls does this air conditioner have?
A: The Danby DAC120EB8WDB 550 Sq. Ft. Window Air Conditioner features a remote control and a control panel on the unit itself. The remote control allows users to adjust the temperature, fan speed, and other settings from a distance. The control panel on the unit includes buttons for power, mode, fan speed, and temperature adjustment.
Q: What is the 'follow me' function and how does it work?
A: The 'follow me' function allows the remote control to act as a thermostat for more precise temperature control. A temperature sensor in the remote control monitors the room temperature and adjusts the set temperature accordingly. The remote sends a signal to the air conditioner every 3 minutes, and the maximum distance for this feature is 8 meters (26 feet).
Q: Does it have a sleep mode to prevent the room from getting too cold at night?
A: Yes, this air conditioner does have a sleep mode. When sleep mode is activated, the set temperature will increase by 1°C/2°F every half hour for one hour, then hold the new temperature for 6 hours before returning to normal operation. This prevents the room from getting too cold while you sleep.
Q: Is this air conditioner Energy Star compliant?
A: Yes, this Danby air conditioner model DAC120EB8WDB is Energy Star compliant. The product specifications clearly state "ENERGY STAR Certified: true". Additionally, the product features section mentions "Reduce your electricity bill and save on energy with this ENERGY STAR rated window ac".
