And with their ENERGY STAR qualification for efficiency, they can provide comfort and savings for any room in your home. You expect all this from Frigidaire... and they deliver.How to Choose a Room Air ConditionerCompared to large capacity central units, room air conditioners have several advantages. The initial cost of a room air conditioning unit is significantly lower than the cost of central air. Because room air conditioners are designed for cooling small spaces, operating costs are reduced. And, room air conditioners can provide personalized temperature and humidity controls that central systems cannot.Calculating Cooling CapacityCooling capacity is the critical factor in properly selecting a room air conditioner. Cooling capacity is measured in British Thermal Units (BTUs) and typical models will range in capacity from 5,000 BTUs to 28,500 BTUs.Choosing an undersized unit will overwork the unit and it will not cool properly. Choosing an oversized unit will cost more to buy and operate and it will not dehumidify properly.We can help you to calculate capacity. Be prepared to provide specific information on:Room DimensionsA simple floor plan to show the location of doors and north-facing windows The number of people it will serveSources of heat such as lamps, TV and appliancesAn explanation of what's above the intended roomYour insulation provisionsCooling Capacity by Room SizeMeasure the length and width of the area to be cooled. Multiply the length by the width to determine square footage or square meters. Locate the room size in the chart below to select the appropriate BTUs. Then use the product information to select the unit for your room. When cooling rooms with uninsulated ceilings, great rooms, or southern or western sun exposures - step up to the next BTU size.Room SizeBTUSq.

Pros: i cant say enought good things about this unit!, whisper quiet!, saves a lot on your electric bill!, energy star compliant 9.4eer!, built in ionizer for cleaner air!
Cons: cant really think of any.

"I bought this a/c for my 1200 sq ft house. It cools my whole house and then some. Energy Star rated so it sips the electricity. Has a really neat feature of a built in thermostat in the remote control. Set the temp and put the remote on the other side of the room and the whole house is like an oasis of cold air. I live in Texas and it gets extremely hot and humid here, but with this unit you just would not know it unless you step outside on a hot day."

Great for small home!! Posted: 10/23/07
"For those with a small home under a 1400sqft this is the unit you need!! It keeps ours cool in triple digits,handles the humidy just fine! And doesn't break the bank while doing it. average monthly electric bill only went up 35 dollars, now thats savings! Make sure you get the warranty for in home service that way if it can't be fixed, its replaced period!"
