Please make certain that you have help with this AC. The shipping weight was 134 pounds. I'd say the body of the unit alone weighs 110 pounds. It is extremely heavy! When I had the unit out of the cabinet or shell, I used a ratcheting strap around the aluminum box in the front of the AC to make a handle to pick it up by myself. Without that, there is no good place to grab to pick it up without risking damage to the unit or to myself.

Thanks for the tutorial! People should note. It’s a 230v and has a weird T electrical outlet. I went and got a converter extension at Home depo 20$. Also it’s very heavy. Thanks for the tutorial. I would have never figured the mounting out without you.

Does this AC have like the two laid down outlets like this (-.-) Or like this (-.l ) If it’s like (-.l ), is there a converter that can make plug into this (-.-) Ps. My outlet is this one (-.-). Sorry for the confusing picture, it’s really hard to find something that fits. I wanna make sure that the converter won’t pop the break or burn out the AC

⁠don’t buy it unless you have 230v supplied to your home. Buy anything that’s 120v or lower. Anything over 10,0000 but will work great for 1 to two rooms. The conversion kit turned the display on but never worked for the actual compressor. It never powered on. Had to return and get a 120v AC 10,000 btu. It actually needs the 230v or else it won’t power on the motor and compressor.

@@ManuelCamarena0725W So what are people doing to I stall these? Most 230 plugs are t close to a window. It's usually for the range and the washer/dryer. Are people hiring an electrician to install a 240 circuit just to get this to work? I bought a 110-230 transformer and mines barely blows out. Not cold either just a little fan. There has to be another way paying an electrician to get this to work

Can anybody on the comments tell me what gauge of wire and amp of double pole breaker I should use? The power cord itself is AWG 14 but was wondering if I should use 14/2 with a ground and a 15Amp breaker or 12/2 with a ground and a 20Amp breaker? I can't believe they leave this off of their instruction manual. The amps listed on the side of the cabinet are 7.2/7.6 RLA is 5.8/6.25A LRA is 40A FLA is 0.8A I've been looking for days trying to find the information.

I'm trying to figure out if I can use this unit IF I buy it. I only have 110 volt outlets in my house bedroom. Do I have to rub an extension cord from fuse box or hot water heater/oven? My house is brick. I can't pull wires so easily. Double sheet rock on inside. Damn. What's the trick to this?

Thank you for the useful video. As a side note to manufacturers, do they not realize how silly and extremely stupid to remove ac from it’s case to be able to install to a window? This is completely bs, they should make all this unnecessary and complicated process simple for us end users who has little technical knowledge.

Does yours also turn off automatically?

@alextv8975 Жыл бұрын

It turns off when you have it on eco mode when the temperature it's set to is reached. Also if you have a timer set on it. Other than that, it would stay on until I shut it off.

@ManuelCamarena0725 Жыл бұрын

It might be because you’re pulling excessive power from your outlet. And it’s not supported in your home. Older homes aren’t built to pull 230volts through one outlet.
