Energy Saving Guide
Read and follow the guide below to get the most efficient
performance from your window air conditioner:
Do not cover the air outlet (exhaust) while in use.
Use the timer to operate the unit before it is needed. For
example, set the timer to turn on the unit in cooling mode for 3
or more hours to cool the room before you arrive. You may want
to operate the unit all day if you live in a warmer climate.
Minimize the heat sources (direct sunlight, computers, servers,
people, etc.) in the room.
Close all windows and doors.
Use the unit in a contained room. For example, a room with four
walls and a ceiling, instead of a partitioned studio, or
warehouse.
Make sure the unit is secure with no gaps where air can escape.
Minimize the amount of humidity in the room. For example, run
the unit as a dehumidifier.
To prolong the compressor's life, please wait at least 3 minutes
before turning the unit back on after shutting it off.
Inspect and keep the air filters clear by cleaning regularly.
Perform routine maintenance.
