Frigidaire Compact II Air Conditioner FAC106P1A

Date Published: 7/27/05

The Frigidaire Compact II Air Conditioner FAC106P1A has advanced features and good capacity at a reasonable price.

Its Energy Efficiency Ratio (EER) is a very good 10.8, and it is Energy Star compliant. For its capacity (10,000 Btu), it is relatively compact. The unit handles cooling needs of insulated rooms up to 490 square feet.

In addition to cooling air, it cleans it as well with both an ionizer (negative ion generator) and an electrostatic filtration built in. This means significantly better air cleaning ability than most window air conditioners we've tested. An LED check-filter light turns on after 250 hours of operation to remind you to clean the filter.

The Frigidaire Compact II Air Conditioner FAC106P1A is fully electronic with a variable speed fan, 24-hour timer, sleep mode, energy-saver, and fan-only settings. The remote control includes a digital display and shows the temperature at the remote control for user convenience.



Warranty
1 year, materials and workmanship; 5 years, sealed refrigeration system
