that clicking sound is either condensate dripping or condensate getting hit by the condensor fan blades or refrigerent but shouldnt be an issue

Probobly it has water stock inside then it hit by propeller of fan. It was happen when the aircon was not placed properly. The water cant comes out. And stock inside.

That sound you hear it's the water hitting the condenser fan on the outside something about keeping the condenser coil cool from the heat. And the water itself supposed to drain right out.

I just bought the 5,000 BTU unit with remote control for my college apartment bedroom and it's worked great so far. Only had it a week though. You are right on that eco mode temperature swing. I'll usually only use eco mode if I'm leaving the room for a 10-20 minutes or so, otherwise I just turn the unit off because it does cool the room in less than 5 minutes. Not a bad unit so far.

no name brand? They make plenty of window and portable air conditioners. They also specialize in tv’s

Agree! The modes are weird, i’m plain jane and just use the regular mode. That ticking noise, i’ve had it happen solely due to the positioning of the air conditioner in my window - if i slanted back it a tiny bit i had no sound at all. I do remember seeing issues could arise in certain AC’s if its not on a supported slant due to it needing to release condensation. This however could just have been a weird fix by me!!! Not sure, but the past 3 years have been fine for me. When i screwed the AC into my window super tightly (mind you, i had just had a brand new window installed at this point, so wear and tear over windows i can see may be an issue).This air conditioner honestly BLASTS cold air in my house. If you arent into all the bells and whistles, get it. Once i found the proper adjustment to my window I am in heaven! 95 f, 35 celsius today and i have 61 f, 16 celsius in the house now! :)

I think the noise is water being slung onto the evaporator coils due to the slinger ring

Less then a year now control panel buttons don't work and the digital panel reads 88 won't change. It response to the remote works but only when switched to fan mode. AC mode don't blow cold. Tried unplugging not working. Can't find a reset can't seem to take it apart without force risk breaking it.

We have one like that have it set on 63 and will only go to 68 at night is this normal? It's in a bedroom use only at night

so is there no solution for the clicking sound? i was about to exchange mine out for the same model since it cranks out cold air i love it so far but the clicking sound is kinda annoying i thought it was faulty. any suggestion would help thank you

Bought this air-condition , it only lasted for a week, no cool air.plan on taking it back frm where i bought it.

pretty good video overall, need to speak up a bit kind of mumbley with the speech. Just sounds like a low cost unit where you get what you pay for ... Thanks for posting.

Why does the up and down buttons on the control and unit itself only change the digital temp if it's in cool mode..all the other modes..dry,fan and auto it beeps but doesn't change the numbers unless it's in cool.

The timer is constantly beeping and blinking 0.5. Does any body have a clue on how to shut the timer off for good. The manual directions do not make any sense to my dyslexic brain.

These ac suck bought it and had trouble since day one first button started blinking and then now it doesnt turn but it does make sound when turn on

I just ordered the new smart 2023 10,000 btu TCL window ac. Im replacing my 10,000 btu LG iv had for 20 years . Im realy thinking of sticking with LG brand after watching & seeing all these bad reviews. Does anyone know how long the TCL brand is known to last for? From what i see not long at all. I sein only one review for 7 years

Bought brand new not a month and it sucks and it froze

I've had a 10,000 BTU TCL A/C unit and love it. I do think there is water swishing around inside. How do I get rid of that? I am also in an apt and the A/C above drips on to mine. Drives me insame.

I just got this unit with the WIFI and only had it just shy of 2 weeks and all the sudden this morning the buttons and modes and temperature display were beeping and changing themselves and going crazy and then it turned itself off and no one was near the remote or the unit... should I return it? Has anyone else had this problem? I just can't afford to waste this much money if it is going to crap out on me as soon as Walmart won't accept a return.. any help is appreciated!

A little late but I just bought this unit today, how is it holding up now?

It started to rain where i live and i still have this ac unit sticking out my window . Should i take it off ?

I got one last summer. It's already stopped cooling and the filter is NOT dirty. The coils are still shiny too. Chinese junk.

Just bought mine about 2 months ago, and now its stuck on eco and at 78 or 79 degrees depending on how it feels after I unplug and plug it back in. Dont get me wrong, it blows cold as hell when its actually working but I knew right off from the initial start up noises that it had out the box and still has when its on. Compressor kicks on and off, it blows, it comes on when you plug it in. But none of the buttons work so considering that it's barely 2 months old, and I paid like 500 and some change for it, im taking the bastard back to Walmart soon as the sun comes up! Flipping bullshit!

how do you set the auto mode we tried and doesnt do it. any help

These units have a small issue in the design of them….. What happens is when ur digital control goes beeping or just plain out crazy random switching and moving weirdly all over ….. It is a easy fix….. On the back of the front grill that can be remove condensations builds up on the back of the digital control board and gets in there causing it to go random form the moister the ac itself creates. Put a small piece of that window foam tape for windows down the left inside face of the unit when the front goes back on it will create a seal to stop it from getting in there and no more issues again I have had mine for 7 years now no issues with that fix…..

Hey, I appreciate you giving personal account of a product. Buying a partially CCP owned product is something I worry about, but if it's gonna function properly, I don't really care. To be fair, Canada has sold out to the CCP long ago so I guess that adds to my lack of concern for buying one single product from them.

Just bought an 8000 BTU have it on high cool n the damn thing isn't cooling a very small apartment n 3 days later still 85 in my apartment I'm livid !!

Will there be any problem if i leave it during the rain?

What is the best temperature for my air conditioner to get cooler

Mine leaks from the bottom now,any idea how to fix?

I have this same unit and it's starting to fail on me in less than 6 months. The timer never really worked on it and when it did it was a hit or miss. At the moment when you turn it on it has a constant beeping and also the buttons on the unit no longer work. I'm going to try giving TCL a call to see what I should do.

Tcl is no name brand? As i saw a lot people in Usa have their TVs

I have the 10000 one. Ping is normal. Modes are self explanatory. Cool cools. Fan is just fan. Dry is for when it's 17-25c and very high humidity. It will pull some humidity out of the room to make it cool and comfortable.

The 5000 btu puts out better air than the 8000

Bought a 14,000btu unit last year. Problems after 3 months wouldn't stop at desired temp setting. Screen barely works this year. Don't waste money on this brands product. Poor customer service

Do Not buy!!! I have the TCL 10,000 BTU. this thing works when it wants to display panel trips out buttons wont work turns off and on by it self

Seems a little loud

This unit is garbage. Bought one new last year, used it for 7 months and then cleaned it put and stored it in my basement. Just got it set up yesterday and the compressor engages but it blows warm air. The coil on the outside is already rusted. Just a chinese waste of money!

No name? I thought the brand is TCL!
