Questions

How big a room does it cool?
About 250 sq ft. ENERGY STAR's sizing chart calls for 6,000 BTU/h in rooms up to 250 sq ft. A sunny room, a kitchen or a high ceiling needs more.
How much does the TCL KC-18/YXRDBp(E1/6)(080720) cost to run for 8 hours?
About 78¢ for 8 hours of cooling: roughly 540 W at 18.16¢/kWh, the US residential average for August 2026 (EIA).
Who makes the TCL KC-18/YXRDBp(E1/6)(080720)?

Is the TCL KC-18/YXRDBp(E1/6)(080720) the same as the Whirlpool WHAW061CX?
Yes, by DOE's records. Whirlpool files WHAW061CX under the same basic model, KC-18/YXRDBp(E1/6)(080720), with the same 6,000 BTU/h.
