Friedrich Uni-Fit UCT / UET through-the-wall air conditioners (R-32, USC sleeve): quick sheet
Covers: Friedrich Uni-Fit thru-the-wall room units, R-32 generation: UCT (cooling only) and UET (cooling with electric heat). Models in the 2024 submittal: UCT08B10A, UCT10B10A, UCT12B10A (115 V), UCT10B30A, UCT12B30A, UCT14B30A (230 V), UET08B11A (115 V, 4,200 BTU/h heat), UET10B33A, UET12B33A, UET14B33A (230 V, 10,600 BTU/h heat). Two-digit number after UCT/UET = cooling in thousands of BTU/h. Chassis 14-1/2 x 24-1/4 in; new installs use the Friedrich USC sleeve (15-1/2 x 25-7/8 x 16-3/4 in). Earlier Uni-Fit models (UE/US prefixes, R-410A) share the sleeve concept but not the specs. Search terms: UCT10B30A, UET12B33A, Friedrich Uni-Fit, USC sleeve.
Uni-Fit is a replacement through-the-wall chassis designed to slide into many existing 24-1/2 to 27 in sleeves (a trim ring covers the gap), or into Friedrich's USC sleeve for new work. It is a room AC, not a PTAC: it plugs into a dedicated receptacle with an LCDI cord. Calls are mostly cord/circuit, sleeve fit and drainage, airflow and coil cleaning.
Safety first
- Never use an extension cord with this unit (Friedrich).
- R-32 is mildly flammable: no open flames near the unit; refrigerant work is blocked and goes to an EPA 608-certified technician.
- Lift the chassis by the base pan with a helper; fins are sharp.
How it works
Room air is drawn through the front, cooled across the indoor coil and returned; heat is rejected at the rear coil through the sleeve grille.
UET models add a resistance heater; heating amps are about 13 A on the 115 V UET08 and 15 A on the 230 V UET10-14 per the submittal.
Power cords exit at the front left. Friedrich lists: UCT 115 V models on 125 V / 15 A with a 5-15P; UCT 230 V on 250 V / 15 A with a 6-20P plug; UET08B11A on 125 V / 15 A, 5-15P; UET 230 V models on 250 V / 20 A, 6-20P.
Friedrich says not to run cooling below about 60 °F outdoor: the unit will not cool properly and can be damaged.
