Friedrich Air Conditioning Recalls KÜHL Window Air Conditioners Due to Risk of Serious Injury or Death from Fire and Burn Hazards

CPSC Product recall issued Sep 17, 2026.

This recall involves KÜHL Q and KÜHL S Window Air Conditioners. The products have a gray front and a black air discharge grille and have the name Friedrich and the Friedrich logo in the lower left corner of the unit. The Kühl Q front control panel is located on the top left corner of the unit, and the Kühl S front control panel is located on the right side of the unit below the discharge grille. The models are KCVQ08B10A, KHVQ10B11A, KCVS08B10A, KCVS12B10A, KCVS12B30A and KCVS16B30A. The model and serial number are located inside the air conditioners. Only some serial numbers below have motors

Stop using the product immediately, even if yours seems fine. CPSC recalls are issued after a hazard is confirmed, often from a small number of incidents.

Read the remedy line on the notice — it will say refund, replacement, or free repair kit. Companies must honor it whether or not you have a receipt.

Do not resell or donate a recalled item. Reselling recalled products is illegal, and thrift shops are a common way they keep circulating.

For nursery and toy recalls, check secondhand and hand-me-down gear too. That is where recalled cribs, sleepers, and bassinets usually turn up.

Report a product that hurt someone at SaferProducts.gov. Those reports are the main trigger for new investigations.
