I just received mine on 10/21 and installed it yesterday. It does NOT cool. It is 85 degrees in my house. I am very disappointed with this seller.

I don't know if this applies to your situation, but when I first installed mine and turned it on the unit had to run for about 3 or 4 minutes before the compressor kicked in. This has also been the case when I unplugged it to move to a different outlet. The operating manual does mention that this is normal.

Yes my AC took awhile to cool down, as my living room was extremely hot. Once It cooled off,the AC is perfect!! It cools my apt. very nicely.

Mine seemed to take a few hours to really start to cool everything down, but it works perfectly now. Make sure it has the proper exhaust ventilation.

Mine seemed to do the same for a day, but it eventually kicked in and works like a champ now. If you tipped it sideways or upside down during installation, you can upset the cooling agent which will cause it to not function properly. Hope this helps and yours ends up working. Mine does over 1000 square feet with ease and that's on eco mode, too.

First, this is bad, but lets try to verify that you cannot get the temperature down. Please make sure you are 6 inches from a back wall, and what is the ambient temperature. I own four units. They work well enough. 54-59 degrees. Sadly, I just threw out my last empty box today!

I have mine mounted outside to my porch ceiling. Lately it's been between -2 and 30 degrees F. It has been working perfectly the whole time.

We are in Montana it is now currently 25 degrees below 0 [not wind chill] and it is working fine today and since last September when it was installed. Feb. 6,2014

Sorry to hear that they screwed up your order. Lets hope everything will be ok. They are good A/C's. I had purchased 2 12,000 units for rest of the house since they are 110/120 and not 240. The units were originally Air Temp made by Chrysler. I was trying to locate Air Temp but it kept coming up SPT. I guess they merged companies.

dear God return it if you can!!! I keep mine on 50-55% humidity. Not a temp. but a percentage of humidity. bad designed product, I exchanged mine 3 times in the last 3 years at home depot.....

It sounds as though the thermostat is not functioning correctly. I would call the vendor from whom you bought the machine...or the nearest dealer.

I'm using mine on a patio as a slide in under an outdoor kitchen cabinet. Make sure you have about 4 inches around for air flow. This unit has the condenser built in the left and right sides and dissipats the heat unlike a fan blowing air across the condenser on your home frig. What I did do is take the 1/2 inch shipping foam that was in the box and duct tape it to the back and top to help insulate the box a little. Just dont cover any part of the outside that feels warm after it's plugged in. Here is something I want to warn you about but is no big deal. When the box is cold and say you go to get a drink out of it. After you close the door it forms a tight vacuum and makes the door almost impossible to open unless you wait 3 or 4 min. I do HVAC repair and have have seen this same thing happen on walk-in coolers trapping people. You need to make a way for the vacuum to be relieved. What I did was take a 2 inch piece of thermostat wire (this wire is about 1/2 the size of a cloths hanger) tapped it the top and bent it over to go between the refrigerator box and the door gasket. This little wire will allow the vacuum inside to equalize and you can open the door within 15 to 20 seconds and it wont bother the temperature. Buy the way this frig can freeze a bottle of pop if you set it to cold. My control is setting around 5 O'clock and running around 32 degrees. I leave it outside but unplug it in the winter. Good Luck

I have had mine for a year now and it words fine.so I won't be returning it...it's not an a / c unit...air is cool not cold...

Yes but if it's like the one I ordered it won't get above 82 degrees. I had mine installed for four weeks and it never got above 82. I returned it and got a 300 watt it got to 90 degrees in two days.

I've had my garage (400sqft) down to 70 degrees. The outside temp today was 92 (heat index of 101). I would check the insulation above the bedroom and other possible factors, maybe even a bad unit.

It is working fine so far. The thermostat is numbered 1-5. We were told by the installer that around 3 was 70 degrees. I usually have it between 2 and 3. Have been very happy with it so far.

A non liquid or gel cooled CPU cooler can only cool the CPU to as cool as the room its in. And maybe a few degrees cooler. How hot is your house? And btw... 70-80 under load itsnt that bad assuming your house is around 70-75. Start worrying when you hit 90 at Max load. If you cool the room its in and continue to have issues or unsatisfactory temps then get your motherboard tested. (I've had this issue and once it was the MB reporting faulse temps. Also... try a different program for monitoring your temps while under load. And only run one at a time.)

I have mine in my garage in Tampa. It is doing fine. The Temp is consistent and I have had no problems. Good luck

Yes, I have had mine for about a year and it works great, I have it set at 87 degrees and it is right on. I have only one complaint and that is the price

I dont care for mine and will be replacing it. The sensor works poorly and it doesn't move much air. I have it installed in a small bathroom and still have to clean mildew off the walls and ceiling because it works so poorly. I would not recomend this product. I'm sure you can get a much better fan for the money.

It recommends the surface be 40 degrees or warmer when installing. If it's not, try warming it up with a hair dryer or heat gun.
