Title: After 3 decades this stopped my propane for heating!
Review: No assembly required btwThis is a A+++ ccu unit I call it . Climate control unit. Because In a few minutes you can easily go from heating to air conditioning back to heating in moments again . Isnât new technology as a kid I lived with a heat pump but that was thousands included in house payments . So this absolutely makes a home of recommendation 350 sq feet totally comfortable in moments. Iâve been looking for anything but propane to heat and going back to the grid isnât in my plans ever so this fit the situation. Only using 1280 watts of continuous usage is outstanding! Not running heat side from Solar today and donât foresee it but works fantastically with my 1600 watt generator. Saved propane most likely will cover extra fuel used for generation but no electric bills is my main goal . Not going un noticed btwLast visit from them three days ago rechecked the line They donât understand the outstanding efficiency of this new found treasure , I dreamed about turning this sorta air conditioner around as a kid so seeing it happen I had to save the under 500$ and buy it and so glad I did wow . I have a situation going on here whereas my neighbors have been really polluting my air so with propane had to have ventilation and loss efficiency and never was a fan of the gas fumes . Again with this new ccu I donât have to do itâs recycling air saved us from the ongoing air assault's. So win win winAnother good discovery this air conditioning side uses 575 watts same as the unit I replaced but this is 50% higher cooling capacity yet uses same wattage so was delighted it runs off my Solar in perfect conditions while suns out between 11/4 most of the year in Florida off the grid btw! Why they are not happy lolBut nothing but good things so far One noteworthy issue I learned with using a parallel system with Solar was that the wires must be a sizable distance between power sources because just the magnetic sine waves can Interrupt the generator and cause a glitch which a kilowatt meter picked up with flashing screen indicating a issue with power source so keep in mind to use conduit and properly space opposing power supplies . So to review ac side uses 575 wattsEasy to run off the sun in perfect conditions1280 heat pump side that I donât see Solar powering overnight unless youâve built a massive battery bank see a electrician or get a backup generator as I wrote about in my book Solar Independent Utility Systems Manual So conclusion far better than burning anything for heat only thing that would beat this is a properly sized radiant heating system that uses the suns heat alongside its photovoltaic advantages. My next goal with geothermal alongside to replace this but until that dream happensThis is my answer for the foreseeable future Canât say enough about this outstanding ccu No more propane tanks running outNo more feeding wood firesNow just time the generator usually five to eight hours depending on your temp setting. Set it to max 86Max cool 61 makes working much harder far saferThank you LGYou hit this one out of the parkPure awesomenessQuietness a BONUS !!!!

Title: Poor Product - Buyer Beware
Review: What ever you do, don't buy this product. This is my 3rd replacement unit in 1 1/2 months. The first one (bought on 8/20/2024) didn't work as it made loud noised and the fan was hitting the shroud and something in the casing that could not be fixed. The 2nd one (replaced on 9/3/2024) replaced on received doesn't blow any cold air. All it does is blow hot air. I have a floral cooler in this small room and it is causing now my cooler to overheat. The 3rd one (just received today 10/10/24) is also broke. See the pictures above. You will see that the compressor isn't even anchored down. The grill is bent, the plastic shroud is broke, the case it sits in is bent and the list goes on and on.Now on with Amazon to have someone pick up the 2nd one and this 3rd one. I don't have the the box for the 2nd unit and the units weight 130 lbs. Lets see how the service is to resolve the issue to pick these up as I will never use LG again.Buyer beware if you are looking for a good quality product.What ever you do, don't depend on quality for this product. As a business owner, I have paid my staff to be on the clock waiting for the arrival to help with the install and 3rd time around with this type of product being poor and damaged, is really sad for the LG company.

Title: Big, Heavy, but Works Well
Review: The sheer size and weight of this thing make it a 2 or 3 person install. That's been my only downside so far. It's not as loud as the unit it replaced. The remote seems to work well. The thermostat seems to work well. It's cheaper to run than the unit it replaced. I haven't had much call for the heater function since its been 90+ here in Texas since I installed it. I'll try to remember to update in a few months when I might be using it. I have tested to verify it worked, but that's it.

Title: Great product
Review: Received the air condition heater two days before they said it would be delivered. Very easy install. The control panel is easy to see. I love the fact that it has an oscillating vent. I would definitely recommend this to everyone. Definitely a good price. I checked our local places for the same brand less BTU was a little bit more money. When I came here and found the 18,000 BTU for this dollar amount I jumped on it.

Title: PERFECT
Review: I was wanting to rate the seller but Amazon has apparently lost their minds.Seller shipped FAST. Thank you!I bought this prior to foot surgery because I have only had wood heat exclusively, and needed a good heat source in order to stay off my feet (not need to tend the wood stove) so wounds would heal. I live in an old farm house that has ZERO insulation. This unit was easy to install and has worked beautifully for the 2 months I've been running it. It has a smooth start/end cycle and keeps the temperature STEADY (no big temp swings like cheap units) and is actually pretty efficient considering this old house. I LOVE this unit! Highly recommend!If you can afford the more expensive, larger model and have the window size for it, that model might be a little quieter. But this unit really blows the heat out and heats well. I'll assume the cooling (which I tested) will be as good at least. If this particular unit isn't so quiet (it's not bad, don't get me wrong), it's because it's a large unit that works!

Title: Works Great & Very Quiet
Review: This AC works great and is very quiet. The one we had before this one was always so noisy.
