After 2 months keep getting FL error

published

This Unit works well overall even in extreme conditons, except for constant FL error meaning the unit is full of water. I then need to unplug the bottom drain plug and drain out the excess water.

Weird thing is sometimes the Unit goes back to working normally and after awhile constant FL error again. The Unit is clean and so are the air filters.

Purchased in November 2021 at Kogan.com for A$599.00.

Powerful Portable Air Con - Great Value for money

published

This portable aircon is cheaper than some other big brands for the same power output.

It has a healthy 18000 BTU per hour pumping out. It cooled my entire 45m2 apartment without a problem and made a huge difference during summer and also warmed up during winter.



It comes with a remote and is very easy to operate, doesn't need too much water added for daily applications.

Very happy with purchase, it does go through your electricity a fair bit so keep this in mind when searching for an air con.

Final Verdict: 4/5

Great air conditioner than is really powerful at cooling down large rooms or small apartments, inly downside is that it does use a fair bit of electricity so bare this in mind when purchasing, otherwise it's excellent.

Purchased in January 2021 at Kogan for A$599.00.

ITs an evaporator style air conditioner

published

Item needs 120 litres of water a day to work effectively. We have to put 10 litres of water every two hours for the thing to work to some degree. Without the water the air is mildly cool. Struggles to cool our 9m2 bedroom. Don't waste your money. Kogan aftersales service is non existent. they will not replace item they say that's how it works. Again waste of money. Works like an evaporator style cooler but cost a lot more.
