this is your unit! I like it like a meat locker in my bedroom, and this unit does the trick. I had intially bought a Kenmore 12,000 BTU based on Consumer Reports and found that it blew cool air, and was quiet, but I wanted cold, icy-like air. I live in South Texas as well and have been suffering the worst heat wave and drought in history. This unit allows me to leave my house set at 79 at night, but be curled up under the covers in a very cold room at night. If I were to leave it on it would probably cool into the hall and my den. For anyone worried about noise, it runs very quietly, although I do like a little background "white noise" at night. My only other advice would be to shop around for prices...I got mine for just under $600.00.

I live in southern texas, and the mercury can creep past 100 most of the time. The room it is in gets full sun all day, and this unit is way undersized (this is a 14500 unit- we need about a 17000 unit), but it cools the room from 95 to 68 in three hours. Silent operation, and is very energy efficent. I question myself at times if the unit is running or not, it is so silent. I use high setting to quickly cool the room, and medium or low to maintain the temp. When it comes to room air conditioners, Friedrich is the way to go!
