- 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.)
- DOE SACC Cooling Power: 7400 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: 12000 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
- Airflow Rate: 259.0 cubic feet per minute
- Remote Control: true
- Integrated Heater: true
- 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.)
- Air Conditioner Type: Portable
- Hose Configuration: Single (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.)

- BTU Heat Rating: 12000 british thermal units (The number of BTUs (British Thermal Units) per hour the unit produces to heat the air, also known as heating capacity. For best results, the capacity of the unit should be based on the size of the area it is intended to heat. The recommended capacity depends on several factors such as climate and level of insulation, but generally ranges from 30-60 BTUs per square foot.)

Q: Does this unit have a heater as well? And if so does it work good?
A: Hello, This unit is only an AC not a heater.
A: According to the information stated in this air conditioner's specification section on the Best Buy web page, the air conditioner uses 12 amps - 12 amperes.
Q: What is the diameter of the exhaust hose?
A: undefined
Q: What is the maximum window width can the vent kit handle?
A: undefined
Q: Can this AC be used as dehumidifier?
A: No, this AC is not designated to be used as a humidifier.
A: If you are a light sleeper, like I am, I would not recommend purchasing a portable AC unit to use while trying to sleep at night. Almost all are very noisy. Thus, to get around this, I simply leave it on for about one hour prior to my sleep time, shut it off, and let a regular fan (Dyson cool) work its magic.
Q: Is this unit compatible with a window that slides side to side?
A: Yes, it is compatible. It comes with the window shield that can be used of windows that slide horizontally and vertically (a bonus).
