Breath of fresh air
on June 9, 2016
Posted by: WebTrekker
Before I purchase anything, I compare all products and read reviews. Reviews do matter and are a part of my decision making process. Deciding on an air purifier was a bit time consuming because there are so many out there that provide a wide variety of options to suit different needs.
This is the first time I purchased a Whynter product and was pleasantly surprised.
It truly does clean the air!
While in the auto mode:
When my dog walks past it, it kicks on! He's "bad air".
When I sweep, it kicks on! Dust is "bad air".
It kicked on when I picked up my dirty laundry and the machine got a whiff of it. Dirty laundry is, "bad air".
If you want good air, this machine will clean the bad air and distribute the good air.
I like the low amperage rating, the UV light feature, and the replacement filters are priced reasonably at this time.

With Frigidaire's 8,000 BTU 115V compact slide-out chassis heat/cool air conditioner you have an easier window installation option. First, install the outer cabinet of the AC in the window and then slide the interior of the air conditioner into place. This unit can also be used for wall installation. Designed for a room up to 350 square feet, this unit gives you both heating and cooling solutions for year round comfort. Plus, with the 24-hour on/off timer, you can ensure the room will be comfortable when you want it to be without having to worry about running up your utility bills. The built-in timer allows you to preset the unit to turn on and off in half-hour increments. Additional money-saving features include Energy Saver mode and Sleep mode.

Nice Air Conditioner
on June 9, 2016

Before purchasing two of these window units, I was using two portable ac/heaters knowing that would be a temporary solution for the given situation.
After reading several reviews about various ac's/heat, I decided on this particular model to install in two bedrooms. Days just before making my purchase, one of my portables stopped functioning and the outside temps rose up to 90°F here in the northeast region of Florida. Yikes!
Best Buy saved the day, and shipped the two units in a more than timely fashion, so my suffering was for not long. Thank you Best Buy!
Installation was not too difficult, I was able to do it myself due to determination and sheer adrenaline. I purchased brackets to secure the units to provide an extra peace of mind.
Reasons why I chose this model:
1. Frigidaire and I think only one other company makes a fairly low amperage 115v ac with a heat pump. I've purchased other Frigidaire products in the past, all kitchen appliances and all have been excellent. I had an air conditioner that the other company that makes, it too was excellent, but that one did not have a heater. After comparing the two, Frigidaire's version offered more than the other company's version.
2. I don't like central heating and cooling systems. If the power should happen to go out, I cannot run an HVAC system off of a generator. As the old saying goes, "two is one, one is none".
3. I live in the northeast region of Florida, during the winter it get's chilly during the winter season and because a heat pump utilizes less electricity than a space heater, having units like these should keep my home warm. Sometimes, rarely do the temps go below 30°F, so the heat strip option could be utilized or space heaters. But that is very rare.
More about these units:
It's been almost a week since I installed these, so far very good. I cannot give a review about the heaters at this time because I am not going to turn those on in 90°F heat. I have one in a room that is around 11'x14' + a closet. That room is on the south side of my house, and it is nice a cool. My dog is very grateful for the new addition to the master bedroom, I can't get him out of there. :) The other room is around 12'x12' + a closet and that too has remained cool.
The economy mode works just fine and I am looking forward to saving a few bucks when my energy bill arrives. Some reviewer's have found the economy mode annoying and bypass it, I have not.
Noise levels: It's a window unit air conditioner, it will make noise but not nearly as loud as my portables were.
Humidity removal: Seems as if a sufficient amount of humidity is being removed, I have not tested the air by using a hygrometer yet.
So far, good product, happy customer and I have a happy dog. :)
