Sold on Amazon — DIY install

A through-the-wall AC is a self-install unit: you set it in the window (or wall sleeve), no contractor or refrigerant charge needed. We could not confirm a listing for this exact model number, so this opens an Amazon search for a Friedrich through-the-wall AC of this capacity — one we checked returns real results.

Frequently asked questions

Is 11,100 BTU right for my room, or should I size up?

About 555 square feet is the guide figure, and 4 certified units sit on that shelf. The next shelf up is 12,000 BTU (91 units), about 600 sq ft. Below it, 10,000 BTU (81 units) covers about 500 sq ft. Between two shelves, take the smaller one: oversizing is the usual reason a unit cools but leaves the room clammy, which our sizing calculator explains.

Does the Friedrich WCVT10B30A need a special outlet?

Yes. It runs on 230 volts, not the 115-volt outlet a bedroom or living room normally has, so it needs a dedicated circuit installed by an electrician. Budget for that before you buy: most units in its 11,000 BTU class are 115-volt, so a same-size alternative may avoid the wiring entirely.

Does the Friedrich WCVT10B30A need a wall sleeve?

Yes — through-the-wall units slide into a wall sleeve. This unit measures 27" wide, 15" tall and 21" deep and weighs about 90 lb. Check that your existing sleeve opening matches, or buy the maker's sleeve.

Sources. Certification and CEER from ENERGY STAR room-AC data and the DOE compliance certification database. Cooling capacity, dimensions and refrigerant are the manufacturer-certified values. Annual running cost, suggested room size and the percentile are computed by Verified HVAC Data from published ratings and EIA U.S. average electricity prices — see our methodology. Refrigerant GWP is the IPCC value. We publish no star ratings and take no payment for placement. "Not published" means the source registry doesn't disclose it — we never fill a spec with a guess.
