I am considering purchasing a 25000 btu window unit. I am torn between a Samsung and a GE? Which of the two brands is the better one? And will this size cool a 1100 sq ft home?

  1. A 25,000 btu unit should be more than ample. As a rule of thumb, a 20,000 btu unit will handle more than 1,100 square feet.

    Consumer Report does not include Samsung models in their ratings system. GE rates at or near the top of the units tested. (They did not test your larger size unit, they only did up to 12,500 btu). I don't know what to say about Samsung, except that my washing machine repairman says their washers are junk! I don't know if this carries through to their A/C units.

    In any event, consider getting an extended warranty for whatever you purchase! :)
