I just picked up this one last week, found on eBay. It looks like a 1979’s earlier model, single speed. The guy shipped it to me from Pennsylvania, and wasn’t too costly. It blows colder air than my central unit does. These are hard to find. |

Yeah I figured this unit is probably from the early 1970’s. I’ve emailed about the one in the link and I’ll see if I can find out anything. |

Your thread reminded me of the one I got from my niece 2 years ago. Here's the link to the thread from when I got it if anyone would like to take a look.

the first one I got was a bigger unit, in size and BTU's...somewhere around 8 to 10 thousand...
the air flow seemed weak, it would cool down the room nicely, but took a long time...I ended up cutting slots in between the spliny fins, from then on, I got a very good airflow across the whole top area... one extra advantage to these, is the output is from the top, helping the issue of most units from pulling in the cooled air before the room gets cold and triggering the thermostat... |
