Supply voltage, plug, cooling power, cooling current, refrigerant and warranty are from Sylvane's published specifications for this exact configuration, checked Oct 18, 2026.
Power while cooling: From the maximum cooling draw its retailer lists for this exact model. An hour's cost is at that draw and the US average electricity price of 18.44¢/kWh (U.S. Energy Information Administration, Electric Power Monthly Table 5.6.A (residential average, May 2026)). The compressor cycles once the room is cool, so most hours cost less.
Will it fit your wall sleeve?
Whirlpool's manual gives its standard sleeve as 26 inches wide, 15¾ high and 16¾ deep, and asks you to check that another maker's sleeve suits the unit before installing. A universal interior trim kit for an existing standard sleeve comes with it; new sleeves are sold separately. Source: Whirlpool installation manual

- Uses R-32 (GWP 675), the low-GWP class new US residential equipment moved to.
Installation & the rules that apply
This is a through-the-wall air conditioner. It sits in a sleeve built into an exterior wall, so the window-unit mounting and bracket rules do not apply to it. Swapping it into an existing sleeve is a like-for-like replacement; cutting a new opening changes the building's exterior wall, which usually needs a building permit and, in a condo, co-op or historic building, approval first.
