Does this have an "energy save" mode or similar that shuts off the fan when the compressor turns off? (Most window units have this.)

No. The fan runs as long as the unit is turned on. For 'this' unit Whynter considers its sleep/economy mode to be the energy saving mode. Please read my review for more information on the Sleep Mode.

This fan does not have an off or on switch. I simply cover the panel when not needed (it is installed on a remote cabin PA woods)

No to both questions. It will stop blowing ac air but it stays on unless you put it to sleep

Yes it has an auto power off feature like a thermostat feature setting or you can run the fan continuously,optional.

Both of them turn off once the set temperature is reached while in energy saver mode

I had that same question- you can find it at their website. www.californiaairtools.comIt really depends on whether you will be using it continually or intermittently. They have a chart that I found useful to determine which one I needed. Basically, you should not use this unit when the compressor is running for 1 hour continuously without cutting it off and letting it cool. I will say that it is VERY quiet. I use it in an office building and have had no complaints from neighbors.

Yes, the unit has an on/off switch. It does not have thermostatic control. Nice air flow

I just bought this on Jul 1 2015. I'm very disappointed because the fan runs all the time if the unit is on. The compressor cycles, the fan never shuts off. It sucks!!!

No. I have had this model for three years without any problem. Unlike Mr. Blake, my compressor runs quietly. One recommendation - when not in use unplug it. I have had past problems with compressors due to electric surges. Your question though raises my curiosity - why such an inquiry?

you set a mechanical limit switch on the side of the air pressure meter by rotating it manually to the desired pressure shutoff. When the set pressure is reached, the compressor shuts off. Has works well for me. This is a feature that other air inflators don't have. That is why I purchased this one.

usually only when using the air compressor if your 'CONNECTION' is loose at the fillup valve it will turn the unit off and then back on...unless you INSURE a TIGHT CONNECTION.

The product manual addresses this question. the fan runs, but not the compressor. Not a feature I like, and i probably wouldn't have gotten the unit if i'd know this.

The Whynter ARC-12SD includes a thermostat which controls the compressor of the air conditioner. When the set temperature is reached, the compressor (cooling function) of the unit turns off but the fan continues to run to circulate the air inside the room. The air conditioner does not shut off when the set temperature is reached.Please feel free to contact us at customer.service@whynter.com.

The condenser turns off when the desired level is reached, but not the fan - it runs continuously. Can't say what happens after a power outage - haven't experienced one yet.

Well they serve two different functions - the timer turns the a/c cool on for a specific amount of time so when that goes on and off yes the compressor shuts down and turns on; when the thermostat hits the temperature you set it at the compressor slows down and the fan is still going until it drops again then it turns the compressor on again to maintain the temperature you want - just like central air does.

Is the compressor running or just the fan/coil unit after the temperature is reached? Does it cut off after a couple of minutes? If it just keeps running, it sounds like it might have been wired incorrectly, assuming the "Fan" switch isn't in the "On" position (if it is, switch it to the "Auto" position). If it just continues to run for a couple of minutes, I think the thermostat is likely programmed to do that as a (mildly misguided) effort at efficiency by taking advantage of the low refrigerant temperature that lingers a bit after the compressor has shut off. I actually don't have this model (and am not sure why Amazon thinks I do), and I am going from the behavior of the model TX5000Ua that I do have.

Sorry to say the fan stays on unit you turn it off. I also was unaware of this till I got it home.
