Your air conditioner not cooling as expected can be caused by multiple factors including indoor air flow being restricted. Make sure there are not curtains, blinds or furniture blocking the front of the air conditioner. The air filter being dirty has a direct effect on the performance of this unit. Clean the filter at least every 30 days. Wash the filter using liquid dishwashing detergent and warm water. Rinse the filter thoroughly. Gently shake excess water from the filter.
We have also provided some additional troubleshooting tips for this unit not properly cooling on page 16 of the Owner's Manual here: https://products-salsify.geappliances.com/image/upload/s--uESkloaA--/olahm3csc12czym1bt5n.pdf
If the tips provided do not help with the cooling performance, we advise taking advantage of your limited warranty. You can view your warranty details on page 19 of the Owner's Manual.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I especially like the "delay" feature, which allows me to have the unit turn on before I return home so the room is cool when I arrive. The controls are easy to use.
This unit was purchased to replace a larger window unit that had given out. The space is an old garage converted to a combination utility room bedroom. The A/C unit is keeping the room cool and noise is decent. We are very happy with the unit and its ability to keep the room cool.
