The Frigidaire 8,000 BTU air conditioner FHTE083WA1 is a built-in room air conditioner that handles both cooling and supplemental heating in a single wall-mounted unit. Running on a standard 115V outlet, it is designed for rooms up to 350 sq. ft. and installs using a slide-out chassis that fits standard through-the-wall sleeves.
Unlike a window unit that sits in your window opening, this Frigidaire room air conditioner goes directly into the wall. That means your window stays free, the installation is more permanent, and the unit creates a tighter seal for better efficiency. With three cooling speeds, three fan speeds, and a supplemental heat mode, it keeps the room comfortable whatever the season.
Why You'll Love It
-
Year-round comfort from one unit: The supplemental electric heat mode means you are not buying a separate heater for winter. One unit, one wall installation, handles both.
-
Three cooling speeds and three fan speeds: Dial it in exactly how you want it. Low for quiet overnight use, high when the room needs to cool down fast, and everything in between.
-
Sleep mode for overnight use: The unit gradually adjusts temperature through the night so the room does not get too cold while you sleep.
-
24-hour programmable timer: Set it to turn on before you get home or off after you fall asleep. You do not have to think about it.
-
Auto-restart after a power outage: If the power goes out and comes back on, the unit picks up where it left off with the same settings. No reprogramming.
-
Full-function remote control: Change the temperature, speed, and mode from across the room. The on-unit control panel is there as a backup.
-
Washable, reusable filter: Slide it out, rinse it under water, let it dry, and put it back. No replacement filters to buy, no extra running costs.
-
Slide-out chassis: The unit slides into a standard through-the-wall sleeve, which makes installation and future servicing straightforward.

Installation and Warranty
The Frigidaire built-in room air conditioner FHTE083WA1 uses a slide-out chassis that fits into a standard through-the-wall sleeve. If a sleeve is already in your wall, the unit slides straight in. If not, a sleeve sized for this chassis needs to be installed first.
It runs on a standard 115V household outlet, so no special wiring is needed in most homes and apartments. Confirm your wall depth and sleeve dimensions match the unit before ordering.
