- Key Specs
- Recommended Room Size: 400 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: 6829.55 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.)

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.)

Q: In AC Mode,can water be drained to outside?
A: Yes, this model has an auto-drain feature.
A: The included window kit is 6.5" W x 20" L (minimum), 46" (maximum).
Our Consumer Support Team is available Monday - Friday 8:30 AM - 4:30 PM PST at 1-866-WHYNTER (1-866-949-6837) and at [email protected] should you have additional questions.
Q: How long is the power cord? Can it be used with a heavy-duty extension cord?

Q: DOes this item come with everything I need to set up hose or do I need to purchase that separately?
A: Everything is included.
Q: Does this unit have an auto fan shut-off?
A: It has a timer function of 1 to 24 hours accessible from panel or remote.
Q: Is this 110?
A: Yes, it is.
A: I suppose it depends on your tolerance, but we do not find it so. We have had guests twice now who have used it and they thought it was quiet enough. Our granddaughter says it's like a white noise machine which she sleeps with at home.
Q: How long is the vent hose and does it need to be vented for heater use?
A: The heater does have to be vented. At first i didn't like this, but I realized this is preferable as we installed it for summer a/c and have left it installed as we're now using it for the heat. I'm not sure of the exact hose length, but it's not too long as the unit has to sit in front of the window due to hose length.

Not bad at all
One of the best air conditioning portable unit. The only thing I don’t really like is the exhaust hoses because they are too big but it is fine. If you got a really good handyman or you can do it yourself no issues.

Pretty good with only minor complaints
I've been using this product for about a week now and so far so good. It takes up more room than I thought it would, which is important since I live in a small studio apartment. But once I rearrange my setup in here it should be fine. Temperature-wise, it blows in very cold air compared to the window unit I was using before; though, to be fair, that unit was at least 13 years old. It's cold enough that I actually have found myself pulling out a thin blanket once or twice, despite keeping it set to 76 degrees mostly. The downside there is that once it shifts to fan only, it doesn't stay cold for long, & I have to turn it back to the cool setting. I probably just need to set the temperature lower and leave it on cool for longer, even if it means pulling out a blanket or putting on a sweater. Or perhaps add something to insulate the window gap where the tubes go. It would have been nice if it had come with something more insulating, but I will have to look into that before wildfire season kicks in harder anyway. When it comes to noise, it's not bad at all; if anything the only noise issue I find bothersome is the sound it makes as the cool setting switches to fan only. I also haven't noticed any leaking yet or tried the heat setting. So far I am pretty satisfied with the product as the most important thing is just keeping me cool in 90 - 100+ degree weather, which it's doing.

Great with BIG CAVEAT
This air conditioner is fantastic. It has an intelligently designed two-hose set up (if yours is a single hose, I feel sorry for you,) and made the room it was in extremely comfortable. Not too loud, a bit bulky, but it certainly fixed our issues with not being allowed to put a wall-mounted AC in our apartment. There is, however, a very big problem. We live in Houston and during this time of year, Houston is fantastically humid. Since this also works as a dehumidifier/condenser as a byproduct of its cooling abilities, it draws moisture out of the air. This isn't a bad deal, except for the fact that once the condensing pan is full, the AC shuts off. And this would happen every four hours. So it's impossible to sleep a full night with this on because the condensation pan fills so quickly. We were sad to see it go, but it unfortunately did not work for our situation. If you live in a drier environment, give it a go. It's wonderful in all other respects.
