  • QuestionHow loud is it?

    Asked by Jessie.

    • Answer The maximum decibels are 58 and the minimum is 54 decibels adjusted. With residential air conditioners, the sound levels are actually more dependent on installation factors than on the sound produced by the unit. The installation variables can depend on the location of the unit within the home. The type of unit a window unit verses a wall unit and how it is installed.

  • QuestionWhere is the filter and how do you remove it?

    Asked by Filter.

    • Answer The air filter is located behind the front grille. Open the inlet grille by pulling downward on the tabs at the top corners until it reached about 45° position, then remove the filter. Clean it with warm, soapy water, rinse, and allow it to dry completely before reinstalling. We do not recommend cleaning the filter in a dishwasher or using the air conditioner without the filter.

  • QuestionI have owned this unit less than a month and it's quite what do I do?

    Asked by Glenn.

    • Answer The power cord on your air conditioner has a circuit interrupter device on it. Press the reset button on the cord and check to see if the unit will run. If you have not already done so, disconnect power to your air conditioner for 2-3 minutes to reset the electronics. If the unit will not run and you have checked to ensure your outlet is still working properly, contact your dealer about returning the unit for an exchange. If you are past their exchange period, please call 1-866-907-1655 for warranty assistance. - Vikki@GEAppliances

  • QuestionJust got this brand new and it's not blowing cold air. It's set to cool, fan high, and temp is at 64. It's basically just a fan. What am I missing?

    Asked by Anonymous.

    • Answer An air conditioner may not cool properly due to restricted airflow, incorrect temperature settings, a dirty filter, a hot starting room, cold air escaping, or iced‑up cooling coils. For ways to troubleshoot this issue, see the “Air conditioner does not cool as it should” section on page 13 of the Owner’s Manual, which can be viewed at the bottom of the Features tab on the product page of the Best Buy website. -- If those tips don’t help, see page 17 of the Owner’s Manual for warranty exchange information.
