* YS10N10C heat pump operates on 115 volt and is NOT equipped with supplemental heat. Will not provide heat at temperatures below 40˚F. Friedrich room air conditioners are designed to operate in outdoor temperatures from 60˚F to 115˚F.
Kühl+ Heat Pump heating information indicates heat pump performance. Kühl+ Electric Heat heating information indicates electric heat strip performance. For Kühl+ Heat Pump electric heating performance refer to corresponding Kühl+ Electric Heat model.
As an ENERGY STAR® partner, Friedrich Air Conditioning Co. has determined that the selected ENERGY STAR® models meet the ENERGY STAR® guidelines for energy efficiency. The consumer, through the AHAM Room Air Conditioner Certification Program, can be certain that the AHAM Certification Seal accurately states the unit’s cooling and heating capacity rating, the amperes and the energy efficiency ratio. EER is the unit’s Energy Efficiency Ratio; CEER is the unit’s Combined Energy Efficiency Ratio. Your energy costs will depend on your utility rates and use. The estimated energy cost is based on an electricity cost of $.12 per kWh. For more information, visit www.ftc.gov/energy.
Due to continuing research in new energy-saving technology, specifications are subject to change without notice.

Cooling Sizing Guide:
This guide helps determine the appropriate cooling capacity (Btu) based on the area to be conditioned (in sq. ft.).
| Area to be conditioned (sq. ft.) | Approximate Cooling Btu Required |
|---|---|
| 100 - 150 | 5000 |
| 150 - 250 | 6000 |
| 250 - 300 | 7000 |
| 300 - 350 | 8000 |
| 350 - 400 | 9000 |
| 400 - 450 | 10000 |
| 450 - 550 | 12000 |
| 550 - 700 | 14000 |
| 700 - 1000 | 18000 |
| 1000 - 1200 | 21000 |
| 1200 - 1400 | 23000 |
| 1400 - 1500 | 24000 |
| 1500 - 2000 | 30000 |
| 2000 - 2500 | 34000 |
Notes for Sizing:
- Based on normal room insulation, average number of sun-exposed windows, and two-person occupancy.
- If heavily shaded, reduce cooling Btus required by 10%.
- If very sunny, increase cooling Btus required by 10%.
- Add 500 Btus per person over 2 people.
- Add 4,000 Btus if the area is a kitchen.
All Kühl models use R-410A refrigerant.
