Cheap Friedrich EP08G11 8000 btu - 115 volt - 9.8 EER Chill+ series room

Customer Ratings:

We needed an AC/Heat unit for a little over 400 square foot room in Southern California. It had to be 220 because our electric panel is maxed out. The unit cools nicely (installed on a 92 degree F day, room temp was 80 degrees F within 45 minutes and down to 77 degrees within an hour). For 8000 btu 115 volt it works surprisingly well. The unit was undamaged when receieved and arrived one day earlier than expected. I only turned the heat on long enough to test it so cannot comment on the heat efficiency.

I had a smaller filter on my house which is on a water well. My well has a fair amount of sand and rust and with the smaller filter and I was having to change the filter a lot. It was a pain. I figured that if I had a larger filter, the filter change intervals would be longer and life would be better.

I ended up buying this. The big blue filter media is about 4x the mass of my older filter, which means the filter could theoretically last 4x as long. I haven't had to change my filter yet so I can't say with certainty if this is true, but I don't see why it wouldn't be.

It was easy to plumb this into my water supply. I have PVC pipes and just turned off my pump and cut my old PVC pipes out and put in new. Warning: this housing uses 1" PVC pipes. Yes, I know it says it in the specs but make sure you know what size your pipes are. Mine were 3/4" and I wasn't aware of that. Fixed it with some 1" to 3/4" PVC adapters.

Why did I only give it four stars? Well, this filter housing uses the standard 4x10" filter size. That's good. Then I found out they make 4x20" filters and housings. You can buy a new bottom (the part that screws on) and the longer filters and then you'll have double the filter. If I had known that, I would have gone that route. I can't just change the bottom on mine because the way I mounted it and ran my PVC pipes, there isn't room for the extra 10" below it. If I had known, I would have mounted it higher and routed the pipes differently just in case I wanted the longer filters.

Also, there is a metal bracket made by Culligan that is great for mounting this. Amazon sells it for about $15. Worth it.

I've been using this for about a year and a half and it works fine. I'm using the Culligan RFC-BBS Level 4 Heavy Duty Sediment Replacement Cartridge which I may change to a lesser model since my problem is the deep well (365') picking up a little sand and clogging my water softener and faucets after a few months and this product fixes that problem. I change the filter about every 3 months. Over all I'm very satisfied with the filter and despite the high prices of the filter cartridges I still rate this as a 5.

NOTE: All my pipes are copper so I did put a wire jumper across the filter housing to maintain grounding throughout the house. The house is grounded using a steel rod driven about 18' deep. Other than the safety issue a lack of a good ground can cause audio humming or other interference.

Installation isn't easy. Would prefer metal screw holes and would have liked a bypass valve. However, once installed, it works as advertised. Built of heavy plastic, seems sturdy enough. Needs support either by the extra bracket or something under it -with spacing to allow filter change.

Would have like to had the physical measurements before purchase.

Good value. I would recommend it to others.

I had first got the ge filter of the same size the 35 or 40 model. They both take the same size filters. Definitely get this one! The GE one will give you water hammer because of the supposedly convenient shut-off/bypass valve. This culligan one doesn't have that valve, so it works. The only downside is that the ones I saw do not come with a mounting bracket. The bracket from my GE one fits, as does the CLEAR filter basket. I wish they came this way, but at least it will work without giving you water hammer. Just make sure you put shut off valves on both sides of the filter, and attatch a ground wire from one side to the other to maintain your house ground.

This is suitable for heating your personal space when it isn't practical to heat a large area. I'm using it in my unheated garage to make myself comfortable enough to work. This heater is not for heating whole rooms.

The heater gets hot almost instantaneously and cools down quickly once shut off. You must keep combustibles away from it! For some peace of mind, it shuts off if tipped or even picked up. Still, you need to be careful.

Four stars instead of five because you cannot use this on your work surface and tilt down towards your hands. However, when placed on an object at your side at about hip height, the angle of the heater does perfectly warm your mid and upper body.

Whynter Eco-Friendly 12,000 BTU Dual Hose Portable Air Conditioner, Frost White (ARC-12SD)

Had a need to cool a 380 sq ft study/workroom at our summer home with day time temperatures between 72F-88F. Central air conditioning available but extremely wasteful in a 2500sq ft house. Refused to consider window given prior bad experience (let's just say it took a long fall). This would be my 2nd Whynter portable in less than 10 years. My first one was an odd looking unit that worked wonderfully for years before we gave it away when we had to relocate to overseas.

The shape and design of this unit was agreeable and generally understated. The only hint of technology was the display LCD band that runs along the top half of the a/c. Standard size for a portable and a hint bulkier given the dual hose design. Although termed portable, it is not something you can carry around the house with one hand.

Installation was uncomplicated and the user manual was adequately helpful in completing the window exhaust setup. Understanding the display indications was initially confusing but a quick flip of the user manual was enough to get me comfortable. Remote control is simple and good to at least 15 feet away.

I powered it up during a warm afternoon. I was duly impressed. Sometimes, powerful is probably not the right word. The unit had sufficient fan speed but the actual coolness of the air from the unit was what made the difference. It was exceptionally cold. I was comfortable in a matter of minutes and had actually feeling cold in less than an hour. It's relatively quiet and I've not been bothered but it whatsoever. Several weeks in and it has been performing to expectations.

Whynter Eco-Friendly 12,000 BTU Dual Hose Portable Air Conditioner with Heater, Frost White (ARC-12SDH)

We bought this back in September and took it out again recently for the heater function.

Nicely designed unit that has a clean modern look. The display is a concealed LCD band that is simple and understandable without an overload information and meaningless statistics. Although easy to roll around, be sure to get help when lifting up above a foot. The window kit was good quality and overall setup was considerably easy. Just hookup the hoses to the kit and fit the kit snugly into the window opening.

Cools wonderfully. I use it specifically in the baby's room and occasionally in the study. The dual hose design helps with the energy efficiency and overall cooling or heating out. Both rooms are about 18x18 and this unit has no problem cooling down a 95F room to a comfortable temp in less than 30 mins. I'm surprised that the cooling throughput of this unit is actually 20%-30% faster than another 14000 BTU that I have. Nothing scientific but even my wife notices the significant difference.

The heating option is not for heavy duty heating but it works perfectly as a spot heater when you don't want to crank central heat up too much.

To sum it up, this is a surprisingly efficient unit albeit slightly bulky but gives great bang for the buck.

Cooling: 5 out of 5

Noise: 4 out of 5

Setup: 2 out of 5

Maintenance: 3 out of 5

Cooling: 5 out of 5

This AC unit is used in my office on the 12th floor of an older office building in downtown Cleveland, Ohio. In the case of this older building the HVAC is less than consistent, but the windows do open. Last summer temperatures in my office reached the high 90s on some days. As we are a business formal firm the sauna-like environment in the office was not conducive to wearing a suit and achieving any reasonable productivity. This year, with this AC unit in use for the past three weeks, the office has remained a comfortable 70F with low humidity even on the hottest day we have had yet this year (93F).

Noise: 4 out of 5

The fan and compressor on this AC unit are a bit noisy, but I think that the noise level is to be expected as the unit has excellent air flow and cools & dehumidifies my office (about 200 sq ft) quickly while helping cool the rest of the suite (about 875 sq ft) too. With the AC unit running on high I have been able to speak on the telephone two exceptions only twice have I had to switch the AC unit to a lower fan setting in order to hear the other caller(s) on the telephone. This with the unit about five feet from my desk. I have not had any issues with conducting face to face conversations in my office with the AC unit running on high.

Setup: 2 out of 5

Setup did not go was well as I had hoped. The dual hose system is nice and connects to the AC unit very well. However, the screws provided to connect the hose assemblies to the "window kit" were worthless. The hose assemblies popped out immediately. Also the window kit covers a maximum of 36 inches my office window opening is 42.5 inches. With a little effort I was able to fix these issues. I used #6 stainless steel bolts, nuts and lock washers (all available at Home Depot) to attach the hose assemblies to the window kit that was supplied with the unit. I also attached a Lexan (Plexiglas) "extension" to the window kit (also with #6 stainless steel hardware) that was supplied with the unit. So the window kit works well now and has retained much of the adjustablity with which it was designed. I recommend stainless steel as the hardware will be exposed to the elements and non-stainless steel hardware will likely rust over time. The hoses are also reasonably flexible so I do not have to keep the unit directly in front of the window I use to vent the unit.

Maintenance: 3 out of 5

Although the hose assemblies are designed to detach easily from the window kit (a feature that was unaffected by my use of the stainless steel hardware) the hoses do not come off easily (or, in my experience, at all). This creates a problem if one wants to inspect or clean the hoses (say if there are insects in the hoses, etc.) as the hoses will not detach from the window kit unless the window kit is dismantled. Also there is a condensate tank in this unit (that was not clear in the description when I bought the unit) that is not easy to empty. The drain plug is all the way at the bottom of the unit at the back with less than an inch of clearance to get a pan (or whatever) under the plug in order to drain the condensate. However, today is the first day I tired to empty the condensate (I did this to see how much condensate the unit had collected the condensate warning light was not illuminated) and there was hardly any condensate in the tank after three weeks of use. I see from the description of this model on other websites that the dual hose system allows this AC unit to discharge most of the condensate to the outside via the exhaust hose and from my experience that system works very well. So hopefully draining condensate from the tank will not be an issue in the future.

I am pleased with this AC unit and would recommend the unit to others.

Honest reviews on Whynter 12,000 BTU Dual Hose Portable Air Conditioner with Heater

I am reasonably happy with the unit. It was easy to setup and cools one room quite nicely. So the negative comments I have are more like the 5% I do not like. Keeping that in perspective, the items I would like changed are as follows:

The unit is a bit noisy. 54dB vs the Sharp 43dB. The Whynter is always running with the sound increasing when the cooling unit is on. I understand the Sharp turns on and off.

The 6" plastic pipes that connect the unit to the window adapter are very robust. They are a bit tricky to hook up and quite long. I replaced them with ordinary 6" stove pipe 2 adjustable elbows and 8" of straight pipe. This allowed me to get the unit as close to the wall as possible and minimize the resistance of the pipe itself. I haven't seen any evidence of condensation.

The unit front panel is not labelled and the remote is poorly labelled. I had to keep the handbook around to see what the LEDs and remote buttons meant. After a while simple things like changing the fan speed are easy to remember. But anything else requires having the manual handy. This was very poorly done.

This has nothing to do with the unit itself, but it does not cool multiple rooms well at all. I have a bedroom and office across the hall from on another on the second floor. Getting the cool air over to other room requires a number of fans and that does not seem work very well. The temperature differential can be 5 or 8 degrees. Still trying to figure out how to fix that. So buying a portable for multiple rooms requires some additional technology.

This is the first portable air conditioner I have owned so I have nothing really to compare with. So not sure my expectations were realistic. All in all I am as happy with the Whynter as I could expect to be. The only problem I believe I have a right to be annoyed with is the remote and unit display. Cryptic.

The cooling ability is also rather impressive. I put it in my study/guest room which is about 225 or so squarefeet on a a hot evening, I would say 87F. and shortwhile later I was feeling extremely comfortable. It a slightly loud when on highspeed and is a awkward to lift vertically but other than that I am liking it plenty.

I've only used this vacuum for a month and a half and so far it is working fine. The ashes are easily suctioned up and clean up is easy. Just unlatch the top, remove the first filter and dump the ashes in the trash. However I would say its not a very powerful vacuum. Don't look to suction up any thing more than the ashes. Also the vacuum comes with almost no attachments. All you get is one metal pipe attachment and a smaller plastic nozzle type attachment. I would love if it came with a smaller hose attachment to really get the small parts of my pellet stove. But with that said the price is low and it does it's job!

This is about Tool King as well as the CZ707 Heater. I have had excellent and very prompt service from these people. When I ordered this heater it arrived very quickly, however there was exterior damage, so I phoned the company. They sent a replacement immediately, no questions asked, within a week I had a brand new heater.

The little heater works fine, as advertised. It is compact, a little cube and should be very safe since it won't topple over. It's compact & easy to handle. Heater has a very low setting so it can stay on for hours and keeps the bathroom comfortable. The thermostat works fine.

It really takes the chill off, heats quickly, & doesn't use much power to do it.

As far as I can tell there are no problems at all with this heater (I've only had this for a few weeks). Even better, I feel that if there was a problem Tool King would act promptly to correct it.

I have had this heater for a month now and I absolutely love it. I cannot believe how much heat this little heater provides. I have it under my desk at work and it is perfect to warm my feet on these cold mornings. The heater I had before this one would run all day but this one puts out so much heat, I can turn it off for part of the day. I would recommend this heater for anyone who wants under the desk heat. I do not know how it would work in a room but from the amount of heat it is putting out I would think it would do the job. I would buy this again should the need arise.

Best Deals on Comfort Zone® Personal Heater/Fan CZ707

I purchased this little heater to use at work for 2-3 hours every morning, and I've been using it for about six weeks now. I particularly like that it is small and portable. The heater is just slightly larger than those small square tissue boxes. I can put it on the floor or on the table. The handle on top makes it easy to move around, unlike the last heater I had which needed to be picked up from the bottom using two hands. I use it under my desk in a small office, and I rarely use the high setting since the low setting sufficiently warms my little corner. If I set the thermostat low, the heater will cycle off and on as needed, perfect for a mild day. The overheating sensor works as intended; when I briefly placed my laptop bag on the floor directly in front of the heater, the caution light came on and it shut off within two seconds. When this happens, turn off and unplug the heater for about 10 minutes so it can cool down. I like that it has a fan-only setting, handy when someone burns popcorn in the office microwave!

I have a few small negatives that account for my deduction of a star. Some of the gray paint bubbled up and is flaking off the back of the heater next to the power cord. The heater still has a bit of a burning smell for a minute after I turn it on in the morning. It isn't as quiet as some small heaters I've owned, but I do find that the consistent hum fades into the background when I get used to it after the first few minutes. If I sat in a cubicle with neighbors on all sides, this heater might be annoying to some.

I do recommend plugging it into a power strip that has a built-in circuit breaker. Twice now this heater has tripped the circuit breaker when I've had it on high heat for longer than 30 minutes (the only other thing plugged into the power strip is a small desk lamp.)

Overall the heater seems durable and I'm hoping it holds up well. I'll update this review if I encounter any issues.

We love the size of this fan and it's portability BUT when it rotates it makes a squeak! We're using it in the bedroom at night so it doesn't make for a good night's sleep. Good price and we like it otherwise.

Honest reviews on Seville Classics UltraSlimline EHF10190B 12-Inch Personal Tower Fan

In a sense, it is louder than I thought "whisper quiet" should be. It's more of a loud whisper. I think what they mean is that the motor is "whisper quiet" so all you hear is the sound of rushing air rather than the buzz of the motor. In that sense, it is a quiet fan.

I'm using it in the bedroom. I placed a folded-up cloth underneath it to reduce any noise from the fan vibrating on the table. The fan is located on the opposite side of the room by the foot of the bed, with the air flow pointed toward the head of the bed. I don't mind the "white noise" of the sound of the rushing air from the far side of the room. Even on low speed, it creates enough air movement that, while it isn't blowing directly on me, I can feel the air moving around.

Unlike a one-star review for this product, mine does not click or make noise when oscillating. That reviewer must have gotten a defective item.

If you need absolute silence to sleep, this fan is not for you. If you don't mind white noise, I say give it a try.

I've had about three of these and they all end up with the same issue. They start out quiet, then slowly over time, get noisier, mainly an irritating rattle the source of which I suspect is the mountings for the cheap vertical plastic vane. This happens whether its oscillating or not although the oscillation mechanism ends up with its own particular noise.
