Product Overview

Part of Friedrich’s Compact Programmable Deluxe line of residential and light-commercial window air conditioners, the Friedrich CP18F30 Window Air Conditioner efficiently and evenly delivers 18,000 BTUs of cooling power to areas sized up to 1,000 square feet. In addition to exceptional cooling capability, this Friedrich room air conditioner boasts a wide variety of user-friendly enhancements and performance features including a 24-hour programmable timer, auto-swing louvers for improved cool air circulation, three cooling speeds, a convenient slide-out chassis, electronic soft-touch controls, a fully-functional remote control, and multiple operating modes—cooling, fan-only, and a dry mode for improved dehumidification.

The Friedrich CP18F30 is also great for reducing your energy consumption and carbon footprint. This window AC uses non-ozone depleting, eco-friendly R-410A refrigerant and has an Energy Efficiency Ratio (EER) of 10.7. Plus, it’s an Energy Star qualified product.

Durable Friedrich Construction

Like other Friedrich window air conditioners, the CP18F30 is known for its extreme durability. The window air conditioner cabinet is constructed with heavy 20-gauge steel and the cabinet's aluminum endplates resist rusting, unlike other window ACs. Additionally, the CP18F30 features a robust, commercial-grade fan that is fully enclosed for better protection. The fan runs on a lower temperature to prevent the AC from overheating and to contribute to a longer life. A solid sleeve top protects the fan from falling debris, which can obstruct operation and render the AC inoperable. All of these design features help the CP18F30 provide years of effective cooling in your environment.

Window or Through-Wall Installation Options

This Friedrich air conditioner can be installed in standard vertical sash windows or through a wall. The AC comes with installation hardware for each type. For flexible integration into your environment, the CP18F30 includes a 6-foot power cord that runs either left or right through the side of the AC cabinet. Use the below dimensions as a guide when planning installation:

For vertical sash windows:

  • Minimum Window Width:26.5 in.
  • Maximum Window Width:42 in.
  • Minimum Extension into Room:5.5 in.
  • Minimum Extension Outside:16.625 in.

For through-the-wall installation:

  • Finished Hole Height:17.75 in.
  • Finished Hole Width:26.25 in.
  • Finished Hole Depth (Max):8.625 in.

Environmentally-Conscious Design

The Friedrich CP18F30 window AC includes a variety of design and control features that help boost efficiency and minimize impact on the environment. This model is Energy Star-rated for efficient operation and it carries a high EER of 10.7. Energy Star window air conditioners use at least 10% less energy to cool your room than conventional models, which translates into a savings of $75 over the life of the appliance. Additionally, the CP18F30 uses the non-ozone-depleting R-410A refrigerant during its cooling process and features an added exhaust vent control to boost cooling efficiency even further. Finally, a unique MoneySaver® cooling mode cycles the compressor and fan to reduce energy consumption.

Additional User-Focused Features

The CP18F30 Compact Programmable room air conditioner also comes with the following enhancements:

  • Heavy-Duty Side Curtains – Heavy-duty curtains help reduce exterior noise and light as well as ensure a snug fit in your window or custom-created wall hole.
  • Anti-Intrusion Protection – EntryGard Anti-Intrusion protection uses steel retaining wire to secure the chassis to the sleeve and prevent "kick-in" intrusion.
  • Slide-Out Chassis – Friedrich's trademark slide-out chassis makes it easy to slide out the AC from a window or wall for hassle-free maintenance.
  • Space-Saving Design – The window AC's compact cabinet and sleeve helps you conserve valuable floor space.
  • Auto-Swing Louvers – To boost air circulation, these auto-swing louvers automatically adjust airflow from left to right. You can manually adjust the louvers up and down for vertical airflow.
  • Moisture Removal – This Friedrich AC removes 3.5 pints of moisture per hour, which works out to 84 pints in a 24-hour period.
  • Remote Control – Use the handy remote control with LCD display to select settings from a comfortable distance.
  • Auto Restart – If a power failure occurs, the window air conditioner retains your selected settings and automatically restarts with those settings when the power returns.
  • Antimicrobial Air Filter – This washable antimicrobial air filter lifts out easily and helps protect against bacteria and fungus growth.
