Our scoreSCORE6.0 / 10Not reviewed yet
Our takeOnly for a large room up to 700 sq ft where the wall already has a 250V, 15 A receptacle. It's the least efficient of the four at CEER 9.3, and still cooling only.The size step for a bigger room, 14,700 BTU/h cooling. It has the same 3.5 kW heater as the 12k, so on strip heat it heats no better; size it on cooling.

Watch out forLG strongly recommends a new LG sleeve; if you reuse an old one without redirecting its rear louvers, a failure isn't covered. Warranty is 1 year parts and labor from an LG authorized dealer. Despite being the 230V model, it has no heat.Warranty is 5-year limited from purchase; years 2-5 functional parts are parts-only, labor needs an authorized PTAC servicer, and faulty installation is excluded. A Daikin-made line sold under the Amana name; don't assume Amana J or K specs or controls carry over. Plug type isn't in any Distinctions document we could verify; read the cord tag and nameplate. The Amazon listing states EER 11.4; the brochure's 10.6 governs.
