Questions
- How many square feet does the GE Profile AHTR10ACH2 cool?
- At 10,100 BTU/h it suits a room of about 350 to 450 sq ft with normal sun and two people, following the ENERGY STAR sizing guide. In a heavily shaded room that stretches to about 385-495 sq ft; in a very sunny one it shrinks to 315-405 sq ft. A kitchen needs 4,000 BTU more.
- How many watts and amps does the GE Profile AHTR10ACH2 use?
- About 643 watts at full power (10,100 BTU/h divided by its CEER of 15.7), which is 5.6 amps at 115 V. That is 24 W less than the typical unit in its class (667 W), or $3 a year cheaper to run at 18.0¢/kWh. Its inverter compressor slows down instead of cycling, so real use is usually lower. Its CEER beats 61% of the 28 units in the class.
- Can the GE Profile AHTR10ACH2 run on a standard outlet?
- Yes. It runs on 115 V and draws about 5.6 A, well inside a standard 15 A outlet, but do not share the circuit with a space heater, microwave or other big load. Every certified unit in this class is 115 V.
- What are the dimensions of the GE Profile AHTR10ACH2, and will it fit my window?
- 10.6" W × 14" H × 19.9" D, 65 lb. It is narrower than 100% of its 27 competitors and lighter than 33% of them. The window must be wider than 10.6"; the side panels fill the remaining gap.
- Can the GE Profile AHTR10ACH2 also heat the room?
- No, it only cools. If you also need heat, 6 certified units in this class can do both; see the list of air conditioners with heat.
- Is the GE Profile AHTR10ACH2 worth buying to replace an old air conditioner?
- An old unit of the same size at 9 CEER would cost about $152 a year to run at 750 hours and 18.0¢/kWh; this one costs about $87, so it saves roughly $65 a year.
