Buyer's guide

What size air conditioner do I need?

Roughly 6,000-8,000 BTU for a bedroom up to 350 sq. ft., 10,000-12,000 BTU for 450-550 sq. ft., and 14,000+ BTU for larger rooms. Sunny or kitchen rooms need a bit more.

Why a U-shaped window unit?

U-shaped units straddle the sill so the noisy compressor sits outside, and you can still open the window. They're much quieter than standard window units.

What does Wi-Fi add?

Cool the room before you get home, schedules, Alexa and Google voice control, and energy tracking on some models.
