Additionally, the unit features an energy efficiency ratio (EER) of 12.0, which helps to keep energy consumption low while providing powerful cooling performance.

Another standout characteristic is the unit’s washable pre-filter and activated carbon filter, which work together to keep the air clean by trapping dust and allergens. This feature is especially beneficial for individuals with allergies or respiratory concerns.
