Owner's of the Friedrich Air Conditioner SQ10N10 gave it a score of 0 out of 5. Here's how the scores stacked up:
Keep the filter clean
Make sure that your air conditioner is always in top performing condition by
cleaning the filter regularly.
Provide good air flow
Make sure the airflow to and from the unit is clear. Your air conditioner puts the
conditioned air out at the top of the unit, and takes in unconditioned air at the
bottom. Airflow is critical to good operation. It is just as important on the outside
of the building that the airflow around the unit exterior is not blocked.
Unit placement
If your air conditioner can be placed in a window or wall that is shaded by a tree
or another building, the unit will operate even more efficiently. Using drapes or
blinds on the sunny side of the dwelling will also add to your unit’s efficiency.
Insulation
Good insulation will be a big help in maintaining desirable comfort levels.
Doors should have weather stripping. Be sure to caulk around doors and
windows.
Proper installation of chassis seal gasket
Make sure the seal gasket has been installed properly to minimize noise and
improve efficiency. If the chassis seal gasket has not been installed, please
refer to Step 14 of the installation instructions.
Make sure the wiring is adequate for your unit.
If you have fuses, they should be of the time delay type. Before you install
or relocate this unit, be sure that the amperage rating of the circuit breaker
or time delay fuse does not exceed the amp rating listed in Table 1.
DO NOT use an extension cord.
The cord provided will carry the proper amount of electrical power to the
unit; an extension cord may not.
Make sure that the receptacle is compatible with the air
conditioner cord plug provided.
This insures proper grounding. If you have a two prong receptacle you
will need to have it replaced with a grounded receptacle by a certi¿ ed
electrician. The grounded receptacle should meet all national and local
codes and ordinances. Under no circumstances should you remove the
ground prong from the plug. You must use the three prong plug furnished
with the air conditioner.
Test the power cord
All Friedrich room air conditioners are shipped from the factory with a
Leakage Current Detection Interrupter (LCDI) equipped power cord. The
LCDI device meets the UL and NEC requirements for cord connected air
conditioners effective August 2004.
