I have an LG regular cabinet Dual Inverter 10k window air. I've researched GE Profile Clearview (Clearviews are the saddle units) and the Midea U's. I think GE Clearview's 2 lowest BTU models are not inverter units, while the larger ones are. Either way, the saddle design requires a pump to raise the condensation of the inside part so it can flow outside to drain. Reading comments shows these pumps DO fail, so vigilance is required.

[@Cragified]

They are only becoming more common now due to the aquisition of Chigo air conditioning by carieer who had the patent on the design. So the patent is available to more subsidiaries now. The downside of the saddle type is three things. 1. It needs a condensate pump to pull up water condensate and put it in the outside section to drain. 2. If the condensate pump is overwhelmed or fails you'll get water leaking into the room. 3. You need to pull the plug on the inside unit and drain the water the pump can't pull without losing its prime at least once a year. Midea's U removes all these considerations, but does block the window more and requires a support bracket so the window can still be opened and closed.

[@lukedermott1589]

I just installed the Midea 8000 unit. What a ROYAL PAIN!!!! That window bracket is a nightmare and the bottom of the unit has more twists and bends than the mighty Mississippi so good luck keeping bugs out. I should’ve gotten the GE but the reviews scared me.

[@maggiereardon8996]

We've had the Soleus version of this for several years. We put them in the second floor bedrooms, as we do not have central A/C in the house, and well, heat rises. I prefer the saddle design as it seems much safer for the second floor. No way I would install a regular window a/c, it's barely hanging on, it SHOULD have a separate support, and if any of that fails, it's heavy enough to kill someone! Also, the view.

Agreed. If I had to guess, I would think the condensation pump is more likely to fail in this unit due to the design, leaving water trapped on the inside. I’ve been crossed between this unit and the midea.

[@kele1264]

Question: the GE saddle Style description says it is non inverter. The Madea u-shape says it has inverter. What does that mean to me as a consumer, and how do you feel about that difference?

[@WordofAdviceTV]

If you select the larger sizes, 10,000 BTU+ then it comes as an inverter unit. ( amzn.to/4bpJqlA ) If the air conditioner will be used a lot, then an inverter would be a good idea. It's a bit quieter and is more energy efficient. If the unit will not be used too often, then I would rather not pay extra to have the inverter.

[@kele1264]

@@WordofAdviceTV thank you very much for your time and your answer. The room in question is about 200 square feet, so I don't need a large one. It will serve as backup if I cannot get the central air fixed, which needs a new outside fan motor. The cost of a new Central system is far beyond my wildest dreams of ever being able to pay for one.

I believe those might be called casement windows. Did you see Jay's video about how to fit a portable air conditioner (the stand on the floor type) into a sliding glass door opening? I wonder... could Jay's technique work for a casement window? Just thinking out loud, I might get a piece of birch wood, cut to fit the window, and cut again to fit the hose and it's attachment. You'd have to have a way to attach the birch to the window with an eye toward safety. I mentioned Birch because it's lighter and tougher than plywood, and much more weather tolerant. I hope this is a reasonable idea, and I hope you could make it work for you in a safe way. Best of luck.

2 fan motors instead of just one as found in a standard window rattler. A condensate pump is needed to get the water over "hump" to get it outside. More parts...more electricity needed...more points of failure.

Sooo crazy story. My parents bought a GE air conditioner similar to that one, but it's just an original Ac unit. Anyways I've had it for 4 years and on friday august 3rd. When i got back in the apartment, I heard a loud constant beeping noise and as soon as i went to the room i found the AC with all the lights flickering super fast with the intense beeping which was also beeping very fast in the AC, the AC looked like it was about to explode, we couldn't turn it on off, so we had to disconnected it, we tried resetting it, it ran back to normal for 15 minutes only and everytime i turn the AC on, it doesnt make the beeping noise to let you know its on anymore, anyways 15 minutes later the intense light flickering and beeping returns and the AC is making this buzzing noise like the motor didnt want to take off to cool the room so it was like turning on and off in 12 miliseconds. Yep, it was that fast. What would be the issue with that because I dont know if i want to buy another GE AC after that incident, I was terrified.

[@BKD35988]

I have watched several of your a/c unit videos I was just wondering if my central air unit condenser fan motor locked up could that cause my 30 amp delay fuse to blow in my outdoor disconnect and could that being locked up damaged the compressor

[@yellowsnowman9157]

Do you have to drain the water or is it self draining?

[@WordofAdviceTV]

Its self draining

[@Steve-xl2mn]

It slings condensate up on the hot outside coils, which evaporates the condensate (and adds evaporative cooling to the condenser coils, increasing efficiency) and it gets blown off as water vapor.

[@jamesm568]

I don't like the extra maintenance of having to drain it if you don't use it every single day so no funky stuff will grow and smell and clog up the water filter or ruin the water pump. This is not the type of the unit you put in a window and forget. Other than that it's a nice unit as I have the 8000 BTU model

[@kkovler1]

They are a bit more expensive, then conventional a/c unit, perhaps that's why they are not so popular. Also, since they drop lower on the inside of the window, they might not fit well with furniture that might be just under your window.

[@WordofAdviceTV]

Yeah you're right, the price is probably a big factor and the saddle design would actually not work on some of those low placed windows like you mentioned. Different units for different applications. 👍

[@rhysrail]

Does anyone know whether you get a/cs for small windows that swing upwards?

[@flallfish1286]

The condensate sensor on the indoor portion of mine is not working. So once you get enough water on the indoor side of the unit the pumps turns on but won’t turn off when empty…so you get the FL error. Can’t be reset…not a great design.

I had one of those Midea ones and liked it a lot, gave it to my gram when I moved. This saddle shape seems even better. Now if only they'd make a C shaped one for windows that open sideways. It might not need a bracket either, just support it with those adjustable feet inside and out. Could do a min-split instead, but those are expensive and hard to move/remove when you're done. These window units can move with you.

Nice AC unit...the only problem with window units in windows that are low to the ground is that it makes it easy to break into your house....those window locks to keep the window from sliding up do nothing if someone was to just twist and pull on the AC to remove it from the window. I use window units in my rooms where the window is too high to climb thru but with my other windows that are close to the ground I use those rollable portable units where only a thin hose tray is in the window and it's quick and effortless to remove that hose tray from the window and lock the window when you leave the house.

[@thomasstambaugh5181]

@@Steve-xl2mn : The vocabulary is as confusing as the buzzwords used by the audio industry. While it is true that a heat pump generates more heat per watt BETWEEN THE TWO SIDES OF THE HEAT PUMP, that is very different from "efficiency" as the term has been used by engineers for centuries. The rub is that the heat generated at the heat pump must still be delivered to the interior space being heated. Losses in that transfer typically outweigh the gain of the heat pump. The heat generated by the heat pump must be transferred to a fluid transfer medium at the heat pump using a heat exchanger and then again at each air handler using another heat exchanger. The very best heat exchangers have an efficiency of about 60%. That means that isn't possible to deliver more than about 36% (0.6 * 0.6) of the heat into the room being heated. Heat is also lost in the flow of transfer fluid. Additional power is needed to operate motors and such. The performance of the heat pump when the outside air is below 20 deg F -- when people need heat -- is MUCH worse than during the cooling season when the outside air is above 70 deg F. What matters to consumers is the PRICE of heating a room to a given temperature on a given winter day. This is readily calculated by converting the BTUs DELIVERED TO THE ROOM into kwh (the unit of consumption used for billing) and comparing that to the performance of conventional space heater. I fell for the hype when my heat pump was installed in 2018 in my Massachusetts home. I used the heat pump to heat my well-insulated office -- until I saw the electric bills. The heat pump was SIGNIFICANTLY more expensive to operate than my space heater.

I think the point to this video, and to my buying this unit, is to introduce a new style that allows nearly full View through the window, quieter operation as heard from the inside, and likely much better efficiency. Everyone knows you can go to a thrift store and by nearly anything much cheaper than new. But for many, the risk that it entails just isn't worth it.

It's used though. Wow what a horrible comparison 😂

But then it will break when it's 100 degrees out 5 days later 😂. You get what you pay for.

@@ArmyOne519 I have 5 of them. Been using them all for years. One in each bedroom, one in the living room, one in the music room. All working great!
