  • 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.)

Q: I do not think this unit comes with the accordion style sides, please advise what to purchase to fill the gap between the unit and the window.

A: Hey Musik! The air conditioner will come with a hardware installation kit that will have the accordion style panels for filler inside of the window. Hopefully this information is helpful in your search for an air conditioner. –Thanks!-

Q: What is the amp rating

A: I'm sure the official Amp rating is higher because a circuit needs to provide more Amps than an appliance draws to follow electrical codes. I purchased a 12,000 BTU unit and measured the draw using a Kill-A-Watt meter. When the compressor kicks on, the Amps peak at just under 12 Amps. When the unit is running with the fan on high and the compressor on, it stays between 6.5-7.5 Amps.

Q: What are the dimensions of this unit?

A: Here are the dimensions of this product: 14.5" (H) x 19" (W) x 21.5" (D).

Q: Water builds up and stands in the back of the unit through normal use. There is no drain. WON'T THE UNIT EVENTUALLY RUST OUT ? This seems really stupid. PLEASE HELP !

A: you need to have a slight angle on the a/c unit. The water gets full at first since it's removing the humidity out of the house (moisture). It will slowly drain out of the pan after a week or so, you will still see a little water at all times. Not a problem unless you don't have enough lean on the unit. Then water will drain into the house but unlikely. Old A/C window units had drain holes that clogged up anyway, have two new units with no drain holes. Once the moisture (humidity) is out of the house the water in the pan will evaporate.

Q: Is this 230, or 115 volt?

A: This is a 115-volt model.

Q: Do unit have a slide out chasis

A: Hello mems! The internal components of the air conditioner FREE1233S1 do not slide out from the frame. We hope that this information helps you with your shopping experience.–Thanks-

Q: what are the dimensions?

A: Thanks for your question, siddy! The air conditioner FFRE1233S1 is 19 inches wide, 21-1/2 inches deep, and 14-1/2 inches tall. Hopefully this information helps you. –Thanks!-

Q: Does the unit need an outside bracket to support the weight?

A: I did not have to install a bracket, and I have not had any issues.
