Heat and humidity are the least of your worries when you install this powerful 8,000 BTU window air conditioner from Danby with four-way air direction. This unit is designed to cool down an area of up to approximately 350 square feet in size and to keep it cool. It's strong and efficient, but won't put a strain on your energy costs since the model is Energy Star-compliant and comes with an impressive Energy Efficiency Rating (EER) of 11.3. The R410A refrigerant it runs on won't do any harm to the ozone layer, making it a popular environmentally-friendly appliance. The variable electronic-temperature control can be set anywhere between a comfortable 17°C and 30°C (62.6°F - 86°F). The unit can also be quickly programmed via the convenient remote control device and it can be monitored on the easy-to-read LED display component. The state-of-the-art energy saver switch can cycle the fan on and off when the compressor shuts down and the clever sleep mode makes sure the room doesn't get too cool at night. In addition, there's an automatic on/off control which enables you to program the air conditioner to start and stop to suit your schedule. Expandable window installation kit accommodates windows from 23"- 36" wide. Minimum window height of 14" required.
