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 bigger 115V WallMaster, 13,500 BTU nominal with a 6,000 BTU low step, for a large room with a 27 in sleeve. CEER 13.2 uses about 20% less power than an LG at 10.6 for the same 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.Same sleeve and grille cautions as the smaller WallMaster. ENERGY STAR lists the older WCVT12B10A at these figures; we found no record for the B.
