*Totally impressive **Fastly.Cool** in my room. Wish I designed this myself. We can’t believe how quiet it is. It’s not as heavy as our last AC unit but it works more evenly and efficiently. Extremely happy with this purchase.*
Ha!, what's a coolbot? Full marks tho for showing how to safely remove entire cover! Really appreciated.
Hello Bryan, thanks for reaching out! We're glad our video was able to help you out.
The CoolBot is a microcontroller that allows you to cool a well insulated room down to refrigeration temperatures with a window A/C, saving $1,000's compared to a traditional walk-in cooler. Visit our website to learn more. www.storeitcold.com/how-it-works/
Thank you so much for this video, I was about to return it, thinking it didn't work.
My unit has 12,000 BTU, I found the first sensor, the one with black plastic, but I didn't find the copper one.
Glad we could help out! If you have any other questions, please contact our team at hello@storeitcold.com.
Great vid, love the music !! I am trouble shooting a no-heat issue and stumbled on to this video-
Sometimes the secondary sensor is hidden pretty well, mine went straight from the circuit board to the copper tubing just below the circuit board. The wire wasn’t visible at all until I accessed the circuit board. Thanks
Loud music ruins this video. You should have narrated it instead. That's how we learn better.
I agree the music. I have to shut it off.
Makes sense
better if you had dudes talking instead of music
Wiring diagram for the capacitor on a frigidaire window ac unit 10.000btu frigidaire air conditioner
Hi there, we recommend going to to the manufacturer's website for wiring diagrams.
The blue text really makes it hard to read. Thank you for the video thou
My Frigidaire air conditioner beeps and goes nuts when you plug it in. It will go into whatever mode it feels like going into and stay in that mode. Right now it gets stuck in 60f cool mode. But sometimes it defaults to fan mode. Unplugging it and hitting the reset button the plug doesn't help. But it varies as to what mode it will default into.
Is the board that is in the grill with the touch buttons bad or is it that box on the left hand side?
Mine is a very large 240 volt unit I cannot afford to replace. It's from about 6 or 7 years ago.
When it gets stuck in the cool mode like it is now, I can at least get cold air out of it. The problem is it is stuck on 60, which is the lowest setting and so the compressor will never stop running when it's plugged in.
Hi there, thanks for reaching out. Your troubleshooting efforts sound like the steps we would take - resetting the A/C is the first thing to try. It would be hard to offer a solution without being able to review the unit and the voltages at various points in the unit. Our suggestion would be to contact a qualified A/C technician who can run diagnostics on the unit to help troubleshoot the issue.
@@Storeitcold Is the computer in the module that sits in the removable faceplate or is there another computer in that box in the left hand side as shown at 1:43 in the video? If it is the unit in the front panel, it should relatively easy and cheap for me to replace it. But I don't want to go through all that expense and trouble if that isn't even the control module.
@@tarstarkusz Window A/Cs typically have 2 boards (Input and Main). The problem on your A/C is "most likely" with the Input board which is the one on the front grill. Sorry that we cannot answer more definitively to your issue but this is an area out of our expertise (A/C repair) in which which we won't be able to give you the best advice.
@@Storeitcold Thanks for answering my comment. Appreciated.
Have same prob
My ac is just like that but that red wire on front came off an can't figure out where it goes ggrr

Water leaks into house. Need a fix. I live on 9th floor. Help
Hello there, if you have having an issue with the CoolBot and A/C please contact us at support@storeitcold.com. If you are having an A/C issue not related to CoolBot, we recommend that you reach out to you A/C manufacturer.
The unit needs to tilt slightly backwards so water drips out the back and out the window. It is a gravity issue. Unit must also be tightly secured so it doesn’t fall out the window!!
I have this same exact unit but my issue is it comes on then flashes off when plugged in as usual but the on off button wont turn the unit on. I've tried the reset button on the cord.. I've even tried using the remote that it came with.. Any ideas?
Hello Julia thank you for reaching out. If you have having an issue with the CoolBot and A/C please contact us at support@storeitcold.com. If you are having an A/C issue not related to CoolBot, we recommend that you reach out to you A/C manufacturer.
I am having this exact same issue. I read that it could be a fuse? Any suggestions would kindly be appreciated.
@@akoo9904did you fix your issue? Mine is the same. I plug it in nothing hit the reset button on cord it flashes something on the display but doesn’t turn on.
@@amandajohnson818 I didn't fix it, but it started working again randomly.
@@akoo9904 I held the reset button on the plug and the reset button on the unit front screen at the same time for 5 seconds and it rebooted it. I don’t know why I decided to do that but works perfectly fine now. (I actually found this outside at the end of someone’s driveway on the way back from Home Depot.) 💁🏻♀️
How much is your coolbot Box
Hi Johnnie, thanks for reaching out. Our newest WiFi enabled CoolBot Pro is $399, and the app that gives your critical temperature alerts plus remote monitoring is $3.99 a month. The CoolBot without WiFi capabilities is $349. Check out our website or call us at 888.871.5723 with any other questions! www.storeitcold.com/
I tried calling customer service but they said they can't take my call cuz of a "high volume of calls" which I know is bullshit and they're just too lazy to deal with issues. Does anyone know how to troubleshoot when you hold the wifi button and it produces 3 rapid consecutive beeps and one quick flash of the light?

Do away with the annoying music and find someone to narrate, Too difficult to try to read the fast captioning while trying to watch the video.

Totally uninformative and useless information! Blah

What horrible music
Hi there, we also have a follow along guide for locating your secondary sensory, you can access it here www.storeitcold.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/Secondary-Sensor-2020.pdf
I'm not sure if this is something I need to do to my air conditioner or not. I would have spoken. I'm to the point that if you are not going to speak in a video, I am not going to bother watching it. Why people even bother making videos if they are too scared to speak, just don't.
I held the reset button on the plug and the reset button on the unit panel at the same time for 5 seconds and it rebooted it. Works fine now.
