- On this episode for Crazy Will Tech Show, I'm taking a look at the GE 10,000 btu smart air conditioner. So, this is the second year I'm using this air conditioner. After my disappointment with the Frigidaire smart air conditioner that I recommended, well this should redeem myself. Come with me while I take it out of storage and install in my living room. If you need a window air conditioner unit that’s Smart and works with echo Alexa and Google home then this is the video for you. I show you the air conditioners buttons, how to set it up for wifi, clean the filter, how it works with Alexa and how to use the app. So let’s review the GE 10,000 btu smart air conditioner Model #: AKLK10AA.
GE® ENERGY STAR® 10,000 BTU 115 Volt Smart Electronic Window Air Conditioner

I got a Ge it's ten years old and workings great .I took it out the window today .Have a lot of mole .Took it all apart a little tough but got it done .I have to be sure to cover electrical
What out lit does this 1 use
Hooking it a killawatt meter showing power usage would be a good addition.
Thanks for you great review, just got one today. $389 at the organge store. Keep workoing on that NC accent, you have a ways to go :)
That good deal! Thanks for watching. Yeah 15 years and my wife from NC accent isn’t going anywhere lol. 🤷♂️
I have this exact AC with Wifi by GE and i really like it. Works well for my apartment. When you first turn it on the light goes on so you can see the temperature and then it shits off normally. But mine doesn’t wanna turn off! Which is weird and it bother me at night. Have you ever experienced that? And if you have, do you know how to reset it or make it turn off. Thanks in advance.
I didn’t notice I’ll take a look at it tonight.
Do you have it on energy savers. If that doesn't work try unplugging it.
Do caps underneath come off
What outlit does it use ?
I like the A/C that come with remote as in 10 years the app will likely not be supported, support your phone etc.
You’re probably right but chances are the AC will only last 5 to 6 years. I have old one that up to 15 but usually don’t last.
@@CrazyWillTechShow I have an old mechanical 5000 btu Signature (Montgomery Wards or Sears ?) 1/3 or more of the cool fins have disintegrated but it still runs and puts out cold air, but will only run on medium or low..... haha thats why I been watching window a/c videos to find my next purchase.
Cant you adjust the angle of the unit to allow the water out of the bottom drain hole? But i do agree that extra hole on the back is a nice touch
You can but I can’t get the angle right for my window. They all get clogged with gunk eventually. Then it’s time to clean.
@@CrazyWillTechShow lol yep me too. Great review though, I have the same unit
Thanks really appreciate that. How long have you had it?
@@CrazyWillTechShow Just a couple weeks. Occassionally on start up the compressor will buzz like crazy for like 30 seconds. It fixes itself and works great besides that
This will be my 2 year. Some people say the panel goes out. I have not run into that yet.
Does it need a special outlit or uses a regular plug?
Just a regular three prong plug.
Do you feel that the air fan is not too powerful? I cant use mine in my room (which is smaller than this area in the video) in low or medium, since is not too powerful
Oh it’s powerful! And a little bit loud.
Which model number is that one?
what is the width as it sits in the window ?
My window is 32 inches The unit takes about 20”. Hope that helps.
I have exact same one says rubber plug only take out to drain when storing for winter....how does it drain if i keep plug in when used..
Leave plug in water then drips onto fan and compressor which helps cool better
I live in a very humid area I have it in for last 3 years but I eventually drill a hole where the water builds up the most. Not recommended, but it always work for me.
I just bought mine secondhand. I do not know if it came with the remote. I'm not able to get it to turn off adjust the temperature by just touching the screen. The screen readout is at 79°. I cannot get it to go down. Did it come with the remote? If so, do I need one is this what my problem is? I appreciate any help you can give me. I'm on my own, trying to be as handy as I can.😂
It did come with a remote…. The buttons are on the front but their touch so you won’t see them. There’s also an app.
Hey it sounds crazy loud, do You think it would be unbearable in a bedroom?
Honestly it’s the worst part about it. I watch TV right next to it. Normally I have the sound bar on 18 when it’s on 23. In the bedroom I like the White noise so it doesn’t bother me.
@@CrazyWillTechShow Hello I had a question how do you disable the push button sounds? Like you would do for your tv etc, In the instructions it's half instructions on it... States press fan button doesn't state up or down then a symbol what symbol? I can not take the sounds adjusting it drives me nuts even non frequent... All is well so far but the disable sound is off putting. Two of my brothers have been trying to figure it out while call in hrs are not operational
My GE smart AC unit is full of water and not draining. Back is dry in drip tray. Tilted it. Still no water. Coming out of front and dripping on floor shots out water as well. So not always bright and cheery.
😬 sorry to hear that. Do you have an angled out? Other AC units I had that problem. I would angle it outward and drill holes in the bottom. Not that you should have to do that.
Are you sure you have it angled right normally if that happens it's not sitting right
i have this air conditioner .. so it’s just gonna be loud ??? .. omg the sound drives me crazy lol
Yeah it is really loud. I noticed that if they’re not loud they don’t cool well. At least that’s been my experience.
I had a 2007 model Frigidaire 28,000 btu that just bit the dust. I’ve replaced it with a new GE smart 18,500 btu. So far so good but I can’t get it to connect to my app. Following on screen instructions to a T as well. So I guess I’ll call them.
I would call them but usually you can just hold down on the Wi-Fi switch for like 10 seconds and it’ll reset.
If sq ft is 442 should i get a 10k or 12k?
Yeah but 8k away worked. 😂
My room is 256 Square feet is 10,000 btu good for that size.
Honestly you could probably get away with 5000 BTUs 8000 would be better 10,000 over kill but if you like the cold and cool fast go with 10,000.
Blue tape?
🤷♂️
Ok i love this AC but today it started shutting it self on and off? Doesn’t stay on and it’s going crazy. Anyone experience this? I can’t find my manual to top it off. 🤦🏻♀️
Sounds like it’s an eco-mode. Try clicking on mode to see if you can just get it on cool.
Bought the same one in June of 2022. Doesn't work now. Circuit board. Buy a Fridgidaire.
Paid 350 for one today at walmart.
You did way better then I did dam!
Will somebody is not doing their job right 16 days after I installed a GE 10,000-btu ahwg 10ba. Beware any GE product that has Wi-Fi. A few days ago I install one in my neighbor's camp. This morning power went out for like 5 Seconds, came back on the whole control panel looks like a Christmas tree all the lights are on from a CZcams search, it looks this is happening a lot, from what I can tells about other videos on CZcams it looks to me like , themade a major boo boo when they put Wi-Fi in because the circuit board traces will not carry the amperage for a capacitor on the control board or the processing chip corrosion
OMG don't tell me that🙄 Well I'm out of warranty so I'm screwed. Time will tell. I'll make video if it happens and will not be happy about it. Did they help you with it?
@@CrazyWillTechShow well she has 90 days taking back to wm. this thing is above her fridge. in the kitchen got several nails threw cover so pulling guts and swamping them at store. hole in wall insulation. 3rd ac in 12 years. WHY IN THE HELL DO THEY KEEP CHANGING THE SIZES. It's a major pain in my you know what have to add blocking.
@@notaquitter That's why I took it out of the wall so dam annoying! just make them one size. I would do the same thing lol.
Yes sir they are junk the control boards go out and it will have a 88 flashing and all the lights will be flashing and I definitely would not buy one of these air conditioners
10000-btu air conditioners is fixed, I would never buy another GE air conditioner I don't know if it's the Walmart stockers or G E corporation THAILAND an air conditioner swap is simple do not take any more than an hour. Unless Ge or Walmart employees drop them I have the new AC unit hole powered it up the blower was hung up. Someone dropped it I took it out of the hole removed cover what I found was the whole blower assembly was Jared, it was more than likely dropped because the Wi-Fi module has came unplugged from USB port to because someone for got to put 2 alinement screws in I took the handle of hammer and realined it. Put 1 screw in ot hold it in place it's back together. Mounted in the wall, above fridge there were 2 10000 but ac at wm
It's going to be a warm week next week and I didn't feel like going back to town and getting another air conditioner could have been worse.
Don’t do Frigidaire then I’m much better. I would just go with cheap dumb air conditioner. Use a small plug 🔌 to link are great! Walmart throws their shit around and don’t ever have one delivered. They do the same.
Thanks for replying Will, I don't know what I'm doing wrong but nobody likes me or my page would you mind helping a guy out give me some suggestions
@@notaquitter It takes a while to get your flow. Be consistent with your videos like post every week or every 2 weeks. Keywords, like stuff you would search for. Make sure you have good audio and different camera angles. I am guilty of that myself. Sometimes you just want to point and shoot. Biggest thing for me is your audience doesn’t know you. So you have to introduce yourself. Show how to do this and tell them A little bit about yourself and each video. Just keep doing it you’ll find your flow and your audience. I’m still working on it.🤷♂️
Tell that helicopter to stop landing in your yard
😂 yeah is pretty loud. Still didn’t drown out the neighbors playing love music last night.
Looks way too small for that space.
It actually freezes us out.
