Cooling Performance

Providing an impressive 6,050 BTUs of cooling power, the Haier ESAQ406P also doubles as a dehumidifier of sorts, removing 1.5 pints from the air each hour.

The recommended room size for this unit is up to 250 sq. ft.

Efficiency / Certifications

Energy Star Qualified, the user can rest assured that their device is running efficiently, and not costing them too much money to operate. Other certifications this unit boasts are being UL-Listed and AHAM Certified.

With an Energy Efficiency Ratio (EER) of 11.2, this unit stands well above the industry average in this regard, which is 9.7, making this unit very efficient.

Convenience

With a noise level of 43dB, this unit is exceptionally quiet, considering that the average human conversation registers at around 60dB.

This device is remote controllable, meaning that the user does not have to get up and move to change the setting of their unit, rather they can operate the device from anywhere in the room. As well as this, there is a 24-hour programmable timer built into the Haier ESAQ406P, which allows the user to input which hours of the day they require their unit to operate. In response, the device will automatically power on and off according to schedule.

With several modes to choose from, this unit has a built-in auto mode, dehumidifier mode, sleep mode, energy saver mode, and a fan only mode.

Auto mode implies that the device can switch itself on or off depending on the temperature of the room getting too high.

The dehumidifier setting allows the unit to only pull moisture from the air when the user does not require cooling.

The sleep mode allows the device to gradually increase temperatures as you sleep so that you don’t wake up to a cold house.

Energy saver mode is when the unit will run on a reduced capacity, in order to cut down energy consumption and save you money.

The fan-only setting is useful when the user wishes to get the air in the room flowing, without having to pay to turn on the cooling function.

4-Way airflow allows cooling to be focused on areas that need it the most.

Design

This unit is exceptionally quiet when compared to other units of its type. Weighing 55.6lbs, it isn’t exceptionally heavy either, however would advise users seek aid when transporting or installing this device.

A removable, washable filter keeps air free of allergens. The user interface on this unit contains a filter indicator, meaning once this light is on, the filter requires removal and cleaning before it can be placed back in. This is an exceptionally useful feature as it saves the user from having to buy a new filter each time the air filter gets dirty.

As a note on the aesthetic appeal of this product, the Haier ESAQ406P is definitely one the most attractive window mounted air conditioning units we’ve reviewed. With a slightly more modern approach to the otherwise basic design this unit looks and feels more modern than many of its competitors.

Help & Support

Haier’s customer support consists of representatives that are contactable via email, phone, and live chat. Furthermore, there is a comprehensive FAQ’s section available on the company’s website.

This unit is backed by a 1-year limited warranty. As usual, we recommend that any potential buyers contact Haier directly if they require further information regarding warranty policies.

Verdict

Our verdict of this unit is favourable, as it has delivered on all fronts. There is, realistically, nothing more that can be asked of this product. The performance of the ESAQ406P is average enough with regards to its BTU output, however the sheer amount of modes and settings really impressed us. We can always tell when a company has put a lot of thought and work into an appliance, and we’re happy to say that the Haier ESAQ406P is one such appliance. We would definitely recommend this unit to anyone looking for an all-rounder of an air conditioning unit.
