Features:

• Cooling Capacity (Max 8,300 BTU): Designed to efficiently cool small to medium spaces (typically up to 350–400 square feet), this unit delivers a powerful 8,300 BTU cooling capacity. Note that while marketed as an 8,200 BTU model, its maximum capacity is rated at 8,300 BTU, ensuring robust performance even during peak heat.
  
• Energy Efficiency (EER 10.6): With an Energy Efficiency Ratio (EER) of 10.6, this air conditioner uses power effectively. This means you get strong cooling performance while keeping energy consumption—and your electricity bills—in check.
  
• Dehumidification (1.9 pts/hr): In addition to cooling, the unit removes up to 1.9 pints of moisture per hour from the air. This dehumidification feature is particularly beneficial in humid climates, improving indoor comfort and reducing the risk of mold or mildew.
  
• Airflow & Fan Opera Air Discharge: Engineered to push air both over and under the unit, optimizing circulation within the room.
  
• Airflow Settings: Provides 250 CFM at high speed, 230 CFM at medium, and 210 CFM at low—helping you quickly cool the space or maintain a steady, quieter operation.
  
• Rotary Compressor: The built-in rotary compressor is known for its reliability and quiet operation, contributing to the overall energy-efficient performance of the unit.
  
• Electronic Touch Controls & Auto-Dimming Display: The unit features an intuitive electronic touch control panel paired with an auto-dimming display. This smart display automatically adjusts brightness based on ambient light levels, reducing glare and conserving energy while still providing clear status updates.
  
• WiFi Connectivity & Smart Integration: Integrated WiFi allows you to control your air conditioner remotely via the SmartHQ app. Additionally, it’s compatible with both Amazon Alexa and Google Home, so you can adjust the temperature, and fan speed, or activate energy-saving features using voice commands.
  
• Smart Fan Switch & Energy Saver Modes: The smart fan switch optimizes airflow by automatically cycling between fan speeds based on room temperature. An energy saver mode further reduces power consumption by intelligently managing compressor and fan operation once the desired temperature is reached.
  
• Filter Reminder Function: The built-in filter reminder alerts you when it’s time to clean the washable, tilt-out rigid filter—ensuring optimal performance and improved indoor air quality.
  
• Remote Control (Batteries Included): For added convenience, the air conditioner comes with a remote control, allowing you to adjust settings from anywhere in the room without needing to access the control panel directly.
  
• Thru-the-Wall Installation & Slide-In Chassis: Specifically designed for permanent installation within a wall, this unit saves window space and provides a clean, built-in look. The slide-in chassis makes it easier to install, remove, or service the unit without major modifications to the wall structure.
  
• 6-Way Adjustable Louvers: The adjustable louvers give you control over the direction of airflow, ensuring that cool air is directed exactly where it’s needed, enhancing overall comfort.
  
• Outdoor Vent/Exhaust Option: An outdoor vent/exhaust feature ensures that any expelled warm air is directed outside, preventing it from recirculating indoors.
  
• Optional Grill Compatibility: To match your décor, the unit is compatible with optional grills (RAG13, RAG13A, RAG14E) that can be added to improve aesthetics and ensure proper ventilation.
  
• Standard Electrical Requirements: The unit operates on a standard 115V, 60Hz, single-phase electrical system, making it easy to integrate into most residential settings without the need for specialized wiring.
  
• Cooling Watts: Uses 780 watts during operation, balancing performance with energy efficiency.
  
• Cooling Amps: Draws 7.2 amps, which is important for ensuring compatibility with your home’s electrical circuit.
  
• Plug Type: Features a Parallel/Right Angle LCDI plug, which includes leakage current detection and interruption for enhanced electrical safety.
  
• Cord Length: A 75-inch cord provides flexibility in placement relative to your power outlet during installation.
  
• Refrigerant Type (R32): This model uses R32 refrigerant—a more environmentally friendly option compared to older refrigerants—with improved energy efficiency and a lower global warming potential.
  
• 26" Overall Width: This includes the entire width of the unit, including the front grille and side panels.
  
• 16" Overall Height: The total height of the air conditioner when fully installed, including the front-facing panel.
  
• 22" Overall Depth: The total depth from the front panel to the back of the unit, accounting for external protrusions.
  
• 25" Width (Without Sleeve): The air conditioner's main body, excluding any external casing or front grille, is slightly narrower to fit within a standard wall sleeve.
  
• 15" Height (Without Sleeve): The main chassis height, which fits securely into the sleeve or wall opening.
  
• 20" Depth (Without Sleeve): The body depth of the air conditioner without considering the front panel.
  
• 5" Depth to Louvers: The louvers, responsible for air circulation and discharge, extend 5 inches from the back of the unit. This ensures proper air exhaust for optimal cooling performance.
