Cosmetically, it's a little bigger on the outside but fits and works nicely.

We have a place that has window units of heat and A/C. In Dec. my business partner went down and called that the unit would not turn on, I told him to check the breakers and plug but he had no idea what I was saying. Another couple went to the unit and they had the same problem. I went down, checked the plug and breakers, found no problem
