How many square feet does the Hisense AW2223TW3W cool?

At 22,000 BTU/h it suits a room of about 1000 to 1400 sq ft with normal sun and two people, following the ENERGY STAR sizing guide. In a heavily shaded room that stretches to about 1100-1540 sq ft; in a very sunny one it shrinks to 900-1260 sq ft. A kitchen needs 4,000 BTU more.

How many watts and amps does the Hisense AW2223TW3W use?

About 1467 watts at full power (22,000 BTU/h divided by its CEER of 15.0), which is 6.4 amps at 230 V. That is 423 W less than the typical unit in its class (1890 W), or $57 a year cheaper to run at 18.0¢/kWh. Its inverter compressor slows down instead of cycling, so real use is usually lower. Its CEER beats 94% of the 17 units in the class.

What outlet does the Hisense AW2223TW3W need?

It is a 230 V unit that draws 6.4 A, so it needs its own 230 V circuit with a matching plug (typically NEMA 6-15 or 6-20). If the room has only ordinary 115 V outlets, an electrician has to add one. Only 100% of the 17 certified units in this class are 230 V.

What are the dimensions of the Hisense AW2223TW3W, and will it fit my window?

23.6" W × 17.9" H × 25.3" D, 87 lb. It is narrower than 94% of its 16 competitors and lighter than 100% of them. The window must be wider than 23.6"; the side panels fill the remaining gap.

Can the Hisense AW2223TW3W also heat the room?

No, it only cools. If you also need heat, 3 certified units in this class can do both; see the list of air conditioners with heat.

Is the Hisense AW2223TW3W worth buying to replace an old air conditioner?

An old unit of the same size at 9 CEER would cost about $331 a year to run at 750 hours and 18.0¢/kWh; this one costs about $198, so it saves roughly $132 a year.

A good fit if…

You want low bills - its CEER beats 97% of 24,000 BTU and up window air conditioners.
You want the very top tier - it meets the ENERGY STAR Most Efficient criteria.

Think twice if…

You only have ordinary outlets - it needs a 230 V circuit and plug.
You plan to install it alone - at 87 lb it is a two-person job.
You also need heat - it cools only.
