LG 8,000 BTU Through-the-Wall AC (LT0816CER)
Model LT0816CER
SCORE6.0 / 10
Our default for a bedroom with a working 24-26 in class sleeve: LG's manual covers sleeves from nine other brands, and it plugs into a standard 115V outlet. Its CEER of 10.6 sits below DOE's 2026 minimums, so check for a newer inverter wall unit first.
