Model: Frigidaire FHTE123WA2
The Frigidaire FHTE123WA2 is a 12,000 BTU through-the-wall air conditioner with 10,600 BTU of electric heat, built for rooms up to 550 sq ft — a living room, a large primary bedroom, or a studio apartment. It installs in a wall sleeve instead of a window, runs on a 208/230-volt circuit, and runs on R-32, the lower-GWP refrigerant replacing R-410A in new room air conditioners.

Who it’s for
- Apartments, condos and hotel-style rooms with an existing through-the-wall sleeve and a 240-volt receptacle
- Replacing an older 230-volt wall unit without giving up a window
- Rooms up to 550 sq ft that need real heat in spring and fall
Will it fit my wall sleeve?
The FHTE123WA2 cabinet is 24" wide x 14.5" high. It slides into a standard through-the-wall sleeve with an outside size of 26" wide x 15.5" high, in walls up to 18" thick; the sleeve’s steel walls and the included trim kit take up the gap between the cabinet and the opening. Sleeves run 16–22" deep (the Frigidaire 912001373 is 17.5"), and the unit is 21.5" deep, so it can extend past a shallower sleeve. Frigidaire’s installation instructions also cover several common existing sleeves, including GE/Hotpoint/Amana, Friedrich (WSE and USC) and Fedders/Emerson, and an EA120T adaptor trim kit is available for larger sleeves. The sleeve itself is not included — measure an existing sleeve before you order, or add the Frigidaire 912001373 wall sleeve for a new opening.
