my AC
I have a KTC split type inverter AC. I love it, it's more than enough for my bedroom which is about 20x20 with a vaulted ceiling that is 15 feet in the middle. It's 12,000 BTU. I run it every day. After about a year of daily use, one day there were some drops of water falling off the unit inside my room. I just put a towel under it and called an AC guy the next day. The drainage tube was clogged up with slime and he cleaned it all out and said it should be done every 6 months or so. I'll probably just wait until it drips again and then do it myself. It looked easy enough to do, just remove the front plate and another smaller one inside and clean out the goop.
I think I bought this at Plaza Lama. I had actually picked out the next smaller model and at the last minute I said wait, give me the next size up. My room is really big and I wanted to make sure I was covered. The next smaller unit was a 110v. This one is 220v. I wanted a 110 because I wanted to be able to use it with the inverter on hot days when there's no electricity. That's pretty rare in my neighborhood now but still . . . So they ring it up and say delivery is the next day. The girl that made my order didn't say anything about 220 and when they came the next day is when I was told. My original intent was to replace my old split level with this new energy saver one. But now I was looking at not being able to use it on the inverter! I know this isn't Wal Mart, I know I can't exchange it or anything. So I told the guy to install it next to the old one! So I have two ACs on my wall! On the rare times when I want AC really bad and there's no power I just flip a switch and run my old 110v on the inverter.
I read the KTC's usage on the EDE meter one day and saw that it used 8kw in a 16 hour period. So I can run this as often as I like and it's very affordable. I bought it 2 years ago, model CE9V-12CRDN1. I don't remember how much it cost. I'm still using it every day.
