5.0 out of 5 stars Great AC, August 10, 2009

This review is from: Frigidaire FAM156R1A 15,100-BTU Window Air Conditioner with Electronic Controls (Kitchen)

The installation was a little challenging and the instructions not very clear, but being able to slip the unit into the chassis made up for those challenges. Once installed the unit cools my entire downstairs of five rooms and a hallway. I live in the south, and even with the oven on for hours for a dinner party, my guests were very comfortable and even asked me to raise the temp. Love the remote control and various settings. I use the sleep setting in the morning when I go to work which raises the temp while I'm out of the house, and lowers it just before I get home. The low fan setting is fairly quiet, and actually good given that it's a window unit. Looks nice and the filter is easy to clean. Very pleased with the energy efficiency. Got my first electric bill, saved $45 over the previous month's (not nearly as hot either) and $55 over the same time last year. That was a nice surprise given that my house is much cooler that it was with my old unit. Very satisfied with this purchase. Also, the company delivered much sooner than advertised.

This review is from: Frigidaire FAM156R1A 15,100-BTU Window Air Conditioner with Electronic Controls (Kitchen)

This was the highest BTU window ac that I could find on the internet that used regular 120V power. It installed without much problem, and so far this summer it seems to be quite powerful, and lives up to it's specs. It is a bit noisy, but I guess that's to be expected. I would recommend this for cooling a large space.

This review is from: Frigidaire FAM156R1A 15,100-BTU Window Air Conditioner with Electronic Controls (Kitchen)

I have been using this unit in the hottest summer on record in Phoenix and it has performed great. Installation was typical of a window unit and was not a problem at all. The manual states that if the unit go on and off quickly to move the temperature sensor away from the cooling coils. I tried this and it didn't stay in place so I put a piece of foam weatherstripping behind it to hold it out from the coils and the unit has worked great since. The remote sensor feature really makes this unit work well and cools the place down. Noise isn't bad for this size unit.
