Wie wir das erstellt haben

Roster covers 11 high-search room air conditioner models (window and portable) spanning major brands as of mid-2026: Midea, LG, Windmill, Frigidaire Gallery, GE Profile, Hisense (x2), Toshiba, Whynter, and BLACK+DECKER. Specs were re-verified against manufacturer product pages (midea.com, lg.com, windmillair.com, frigidaire.com, geappliances.com, hisense-usa.com, toshiba-lifestyle.com, blackanddecker.com, whynter.com), the EPA Energy Star product/best-value finder (energystar.gov) for CEER and certification dates, and major retailers (Home Depot, Best Buy, Lowe's, Sylvane, Walmart) for current pricing. Adversarial re-check fixed two sources (GE corroboration moved off AJ Madison which lists a conflicting CEER; Hisense UltraSlim source moved off an obscure reseller to Best Buy) and one price (Frigidaire, unverifiable retailer). BTU values follow the DOE/SACC standard for portable units; CEER values reflect the authoritative Energy Star filing where available; noise_dba is the manufacturer-stated operating level (min for window units, max-setting where only that is published); booleans represent yes (true) or no (false); null indicates a genuinely unverified value. accessedAt 2026-06-15.
