Frigidaire FHTC083WA1 8,000 BTU Wall Air Conditioner

Model # FHTC083WA1

The FHTC083WA1 is a through-the-wall unit. Wall units depend on a correctly sized sleeve and rear grille; when a new chassis goes into an old sleeve, airflow can recirculate and cooling suffers even though the unit itself is fine.

Water running down the inside wall usually means the sleeve is not pitched correctly toward the outside or its drain is blocked. A technician can verify the sleeve, grille and seals before looking at the refrigerant side.
