Does auto restart mean that it will restart without intervention from us when power goes out and then comes back on? I own GE models that do that it if power is interuppted. Couldn't find the answer to this in a Keystone manual I downloaded. I got the answer to my question because I finally bought one. It does restart after power goes out. I turned the breaker off and waited then turned it back on and the unit restarted like my GE AC's. One surprise to me was that I had been reading at different sites that it had a 2yr warranty and a 5yr sealed warranty. On the box and in the manual it is only a 1yr warranty and says nothing I could find about the sealed system warranty. Most ac's are 1yr and I needed this only cause it was a small imprint for a small window so it didn't matter.

Sorry, Kim, I have never tried that or read about it, so I'm afraid I can't tell you the answer. You would probably have to go directly to Keystone to get the answer. I wish I could've been more helpful.

Concerning the warranty I spoke to two or three "keystone" techs? prior to purchase and they assured me the warranty was 2 years for everything and 5 for sealed.When my ac arrived right on the box it says One Year.

Honesty I don't think so. Since my original review the energy saver is useless. I keep the remote next to my chair and I am constantly adjusting the thermostat up and down. The one thing is that it really blows cold air.

That has never happened to me, so I can't answer specifically. However, if I unplug it, it must be reset again, so I assume the same would be true of a power failure.

Yes it does reset once the power comes back on. However there is no indication the power went out, even briefly which would be nice to know. But still it addresses the issue we had - the GFI tripping and we didn't notice it until we go in the garage for something.

It kicks off power to camper so u have to go reset it when it happens.....lets us know while we have been gone if it happens....we have ours in a permanent spot for season. It does what it is suppose to do!

That's correct, as long as the power switch is on it will maintain its operation, you don't need to restart it manually.

Daniel,I returned my 2798 so don't have all the answers. If your accessory plug-in (cigarette lighter) loses power when you shut off you car, the 2798 will shut down automatically. It will then turn on automatically when you start your car.Tracy

Not suppose too. I had my AC unswitched while on, and when plugged back in, I had to turn it back on. As far as turning on by its self replugging, sounds funny.

The 12000 BTU model of this AC does resume after a power failure. I assume this one will as well as they are same series . By the way I have had my 12000 BTU model for 3 summers and about to start the 4th. It works perfectly .

the power light comes on when there is re-engaged power. The settings won't be re-iniated though. You have to manually slam the thing against the wall and call it a day. Its a one hit wonder, and I hit it once and wondered why I bought the dern thing! :)

Hello Julia... it is. This is a power saving feature. The AC gears up until it reaches your desired temperature and it gears down to save energy. After the cool down it gears up again to regain the temperature. Greetings.

Is the compressor running or just the fan/coil unit after the temperature is reached? Does it cut off after a couple of minutes? If it just keeps running, it sounds like it might have been wired incorrectly, assuming the "Fan" switch isn't in the "On" position (if it is, switch it to the "Auto" position). If it just continues to run for a couple of minutes, I think the thermostat is likely programmed to do that as a (mildly misguided) effort at efficiency by taking advantage of the low refrigerant temperature that lingers a bit after the compressor has shut off. I actually don't have this model (and am not sure why Amazon thinks I do), and I am going from the behavior of the model TX5000Ua that I do have.

Rom, It is up to you. If I do not power it off by pushing the button, then when I turn off my PC it goes into stand-by mode and will automatically power back on when I turn the PC on again. I normally turn it off before powering my PC off, and so I need to turn it on again when turning my PC on again.Best,Chris

My two Rinnai tankless hot water heaters require electricity to ignite the LPG which fuels the heating of the water. Therefore, I have had a generator installed to provide the necessary electricity if and when I incur an electrical power outage. So far I have not experienced a power outage. I am told that the Rinnais will need to be "reset" whenever a power outage occurs. Once reset, the opening of a hot water faucet will signal the Rinnai to use electricity to ignite the LPG and heat the water. I do not know if rhe Rinnai can be connected to a battery which will provide the needed electricity. Contact Rinnai or an experienced installer in re the battery question.

It's been quite awhile since I installed my timer and I don't remember now what number it was----but I know that it did take a back up battery. Are you sure your's does not? I've never seen one that didn't? But I suppose that it's possible that the newer models might use a system that won't dump your settings when the power goes off. I haven't researched your model number so I can't say one way or the other for certain.

Yes it does, but I find the explanation on the box and in the User's Manual to contradict each other. On the box, it says the On/Off switch doubles as a resettable circuit breaker. It says just move switch back to "ON" position to reset. However, in the Manual it says : As a circuit breaker, when it trips due to an overload condition, the ON/OFF Switch goes to the OFF position. Disconnect all connected equipment, and set the ON/OFF position to ON. Reconnect all devices to be protected one at a time. DO NOT reconnect the device that caused the switch to trip. I find that confusing. How are you supposed to know if one of the plugged devices caused it to turn off and if it does how do you determine which one it is? Am I just stupid? In another section it says that this device features an internal protection that will disconnect the surge protective component at the end of its useful life but will maintain power to the load - now unprotected. If this situation is undesirable for the application, follow the manufacturer's instructions for replacing the device. It does have a reset switch, but I am not sure it works after it is hit by a power surge like a lightning strike. Sorry about my ridiculously long answer, but I am somewhat confused by conflicting statements in literature. Good luck!

I have had many power failures but I never had to re-program this unit. I am not sure how it does but does remember settings. Please note the Power failures we have seen here only lasted a few hours maximum. I have to reset all radio-clocks that is how I notice power failures...

Someone already answered this just above you. This was the top one, I think: I unplugged my unit to test it and it came back on. I believe that the on/off switch has to be physically depressed to turn the unit off, so it should come back on when power is restored.
