5 Operating Modes

The Comfort-Aire 8,000-BTU Window Air Conditioner is equipped with several operating modes that keep your home cool and comfortable.

• Cool: This window AC processes 218 cubic feet of air per minute and uses 8,000 BTUs to efficiently cool spaces up to 350 square feet.
   
• Fan: Use fan-only operation to prevent room stuffiness in cooler temperatures. This window AC is equipped with high, medium, and low speed settings and also features an automatic speed option that chooses a speed based on the ambient temperature.
   
• Dry: In Dry mode, this AC serves as a dehumidifier to eliminate humidity as it cools your room. The RADS-81J extracts 41.6 pints of moisture per day and provides immediate comfort while conserving energy.
   
• Automatic: When in Auto mode, this model automatically selects cooling or fan-only operation depending on the room’s ambient temperature.
   
• Energy Saver: Energy Saver mode maintains a reasonable room temperature while you’re at work or out of town because it automatically stops the fan and compressor when your optimal temperature is reached, which also lowers your energy consumption.  

Convenient and Energy-Efficient Features

This model includes a full-service digital remote control that provides easy access to all of its features and lets you easily change modes or fan speeds. The reusable air filter is easy to remove and clean, saving you money on replacement filters and ensuring your AC runs efficiently.
