      Questions7
      How many square feet does the Midea MAW10V1WWT cool?
      At 10,000 BTU/h it suits a room of about 350 to 450 sq ft with normal sun and two people, following the ENERGY STAR sizing guide. In a heavily shaded room that stretches to about 385-495 sq ft; in a very sunny one it shrinks to 315-405 sq ft. A kitchen needs 4,000 BTU more.
      How many watts and amps does the Midea MAW10V1WWT use?
      About 625 watts at full power (10,000 BTU/h divided by its CEER of 16.0), which is 5.4 amps at 115 V. That is 42 W less than the typical unit in its class (667 W), or $6 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 64% of the 28 units in the class.
      Can the Midea MAW10V1WWT run on a standard outlet?
      Yes. It runs on 115 V and draws about 5.4 A, well inside a standard 15 A outlet, but do not share the circuit with a space heater, microwave or other big load. Every certified unit in this class is 115 V.
      What are the dimensions of the Midea MAW10V1WWT, and will it fit my window?
      19" W × 13.6" H × 18.6" D, 47 lb. It is narrower than 81% of its 27 competitors and lighter than 89% of them. The window must be wider than 19"; the side panels fill the remaining gap.
      Can the Midea MAW10V1WWT also heat the room?
      No, it only cools. If you also need heat, 6 certified units in this class can do both; see the list of air conditioners with heat.
      Is the Midea MAW10V1WWT worth buying to replace an old air conditioner?
      An old unit of the same size at 9 CEER would cost about $150 a year to run at 750 hours and 18.0¢/kWh; this one costs about $85, so it saves roughly $66 a year.
      Is the Midea MAW10V1WWT the same as the Midea MAW10RV1KWT?
      As far as the certified data goes, yes. ENERGY STAR lists 14 model numbers with the same capacity, efficiency, energy use, dimensions and weight, which means the same unit sold under another brand or with a different colour or retailer code. The full list is on this page.

      Electricity used: 825 kWh a yearAn old 9 CEER unit of the same size would cost $235

      Power draw is capacity divided by CEER, which already includes standby power. Inverter units often run below full power, so real use can be lower. Electricity prices: U.S. EIA residential averages (12 months to July 2026). Days a year start from your state's cooling degree days (NOAA 1991-2020 normals).
