Buy a new one, no window unit is worth fixing

mcdevito75 here 90% chance your low on freon, you don"t cahrge it the a.c repair shop does, you"d need the gas first and it's a commercial item then the tools would cost you the same if you charged it anyway and the shop gives a guarantee.

Hi,

Unfortunately you cannot mount this type of A/C vertically. The compressor must be in the upright position or it will be damaged and not function in a short period of time.

Yes I accidentally drop my Gold Star Model #R5050 out the window while installing it. I opened it up and the two(2) white wire are off and I don't know were they go. I try to connect the to the empty terminals and I got a spark out of the outlet. Can you please help me....

There is a problem and you or an Ac technician has to find it.

Air Conditioners don't 'Use' freon per se. A common fallacy is the thinking that if "It's not getting cold, then it needs freon." If your unit lost freon, it has a leak and adding freon will only be a very short term fix.

If you're certain that you need freon, you'll have to take the unit to a certified HVAC technician. EPA regulations make it nearly impossible for the average handyman to service A/C units, since the freon must be handled in a very specific way with equipment not generally available to the average owner, was well as R-12 freon gas which can be bought only by licensed HVAC technicians.

However, there are many other problems that are far more likely to be the cause of no cooling than loss of freon. It could be something as simple as dirty condenser coils (you'd be surprised how common it is that a simple cleaning of these coils will 'fix' a non-working window A/C), to a defective thermostat switch, to other defective switches/controls.

Unless it's a very obvious leak, I always suspect a loss of freon LAST on my list of possible cause of non-cooling in these units.

Window AC's mut be installed with the back slightly lower than the front to allow the condensate (water) to drip outside

well the thing is that you puting sheets and thing under it only make alot of things harder for you because u are just keeping the some of the water in the ac so you keep making it freeze more so this is what u do u take the ac out of ur window and put a towel on the floor but make sure it folded twice because you will have water all over the place yoyu take the ac from the back and tilled it and u will see water come out tryu front and back to make sure make sure all the water out and put it back inthe window turn it one and ur do but un mit want to do this latly so it want freeze as much
