(P)Unmatched when it comes to quality, ease, and control, everything about Kuhl sets the standard for home comfort. Unrivaled commercial-grade construction, engineered with QuietMaster technology, Precision Inverter , and integrated Wi-Fi control. As part of our commitment to offering sustainable products, the Kuhl room air conditioner line now utilizes A2L-compliant R-32 refrigerant and features inverter compressors, helping you contribute to decarbonization goals while enjoying more energy cost savings. Kuhl represents a new standard in room air conditioners offering 8,000 - 36,000 Btu/hr. Cooling only, heat pumps, and electric heat models with inverter and single-speed options in cooling and heat pump.(/P)(BR) (BR)(B)Precise Comfort with Precision Inverter (/B)(BR)(P)Traditional room air conditioners have on/off compressors that result in wild temperature swings, inefficient energy use, and hard stops/starts that may shorten the life of the unit. Friedrich's Precision Inverter variable speed compressor adjusts up or down based on need, providing the user precise temperature control, exceptional energy efficiencies, and dependably quiet operation. Additionally, the frequent on/off operation of traditional units puts strain on both the unit and the power grid during hot summers. Friedrich Soft-Start technology starts the compressor with significantly less strain at start up, saving energy.(/P) (BR)(B)QuietMaster Technology(/B)(BR)(P)Engineered for quiet performance with superior components.

New intuitive platform. Simplified 7-day programmability. With our advanced grouping program, you can control multiple units to work independently or as a single system. You can even invite other users to manage one or more of your units. Adjust set point, schedule, control multiple units, and more-at home or remotely via the FriedrichLink app.(/P) (BR)(B)Commercial Grade Quality & Durability(/B)(BR)(P)Superior components and construction. Attention to every detail. Every aspect of Kuhl is ultra-premium, outside and in, down to the tiniest component. Constructed with only the finest-quality materials, Kuhl is extremely durable and designed to withstand tough use in virtually any commercial setting.(/P) (BR)(B)Smart & Sustainable Heat Pump(/B)(BR)(P)Kuhl offers both electric and heat pump options. Heat Pumps provide energy-efficient heating by extracting heat from the outside air. They can be used for primary heating in moderate climates and as supplemental heating in colder climates. 230-volt models have backup electric heat that will activate when outside temperatures are too cold for efficient heat pump operation.(/P)(P)Kuhl+ Room Air Conditioners heat effectively down to 45 degrees-eliminating the need for a second unit to provide warmth.
