Best RCA 6000 BTU Electronic Windor Air Conditioner with Remote Control Deals

Customer Ratings:

Assembling the unit on top of a bean bag proved most simple. If you are using a powered screwdriver, be sure to set the torque to it's lowest setting. I let the unit sit upright and flat for close to an hour before I powered it on.

The Foam Tape is most sticky, be sure to have it exactly where you want it in the window trough.

My windows were custom cut, so I was just barely able to fit this unit in, and only needed about half of the screws I was supplied with. Used 2 screws to mount the windows spacers, 1 screw right in the center of the unit to the window, and 1 more screw right above the opening window frame to keep it closed on the unit.

The plastic air directional fins were not seated in their pivots, so I used a pair of pliers and pulled them gently into the holders, making them work nice and smooth.

Foam spacer fills the window gap in nicely, not even noticeable. For the remaining gaps I used AlumiTape.

I can run the unit on high setting for a couple of hours and notice about a 5 degree F. drop in temp right around the unit, but the tin nature of my home continues to raise the ambient temp. I tried turning my furnace fan on only while running the A/C and noticed the entire house starts to cool down more rapidly. Figured out the Furnace had a second circuit and placed a 12 volt toggle switch next to the Honeywell and use it as an A/C boost now. This old home in Alaska can go 95 degree Fahrenheit, but this 6000 BTU unit can bring it back to 80 given a couple hours of running.

The timer on/off feature is real handy in saving power and preparing the room for my arrival. Works in increments of 1 hour delay on or off.

The first month of operation and didn't even notice a twitch in my power bill. Overall while it's running the compressor, it's not as loud as I thought it could end up being. Does tend to vibrate the plastic parts abit while it's cooling.

Won't be long and I'll be removing the unit to store under a bed, think I'll place a 2x4 under the bottom window rail and the unit should sit flat for me. Just want to protect the fins on the back as long as possible.

Bought this unit new and opened straight out of the box; the unit did not work. All it did was blow hot air; the compressor never engaged no matter what I did. I sent this thing back right away. Dont waste your money.

We were really excited when this unit showed up and we installed it in the window right away. We don't know if it's a defective unit or what, but all it does is blow warm air. A good window fan would work better. I called RCA tech support and they are in India. They asked if I'm trying to cool or warm the room! I had just told them it's 90 degrees in the bedroom. Yeah, I'm really trying to warm the room. Then all they told me was that it was maybe a defective unit. Ya think? So I chatted with Amazon customer support and they would have sent me a replacement unit, but it was going to be out of stock until September. Fat lot of good that does me. So I'm returning this unit and ordering a different brand's 6,000 BTU unit that I hope actually works. In the meantime all this unit has done for me is make me suffer in the heat a week longer than necessary. Thanks RCA. Thank you so very much for creating such a "wonderful" product. :(
