Friedrich Kuhl Black And Silver Window Air Conditioner - SM18M30
The only commercial-grade room air conditioning.
From components and construction to testing and performance, there’s simply
no other room air conditioner like Kühl. We challenged our engineering team
to abandon conventional thinking and create the ultimate, commercial-grade room
air conditioner. It had to be durable and high-performing, yet quiet. The design
had to be cutting edge. And we insisted on unique features that would take comfort,
indoor air quality and energy management to unprecedented levels.
Key Features:
- Better energy management: Program up to four distinct temperature
settings per day for seven days to keep energy consumption and costs under
control, particularly when spaces are unoccupied. Kühl can be operated using
the unit’s LCD control panel, remote control or a central thermostat. Plus,
the LCD settings lockout feature prohibits occupants from changing the temperature.
- Cooling for any space: Unlike many manufacturers, we give you a full
range of capacities in one line. Kühl can cool a single room or large commercial
space efficiently and cost-effectively, so there’s no need to install an expensive
central system.
- Improved air quality: Kühl’s larger vent openings provide superior
fresh-air intake and stale-air exhaust. The optional premium carbon filter
used with the standard antimicrobial filter has filtration ratings as high
as MERV 6 while absorbing odors and reducing ozone and VOCs.
- Easier installation and maintenance: Kühl’s firm-grip handles and
slide-out chassis make installation and removal much quicker. The on-board
electronic maintenance indicators and error code storage take the guesswork
out of identifying and addressing issues. We even include the nut driver needed
to install the front cover.
Features:
