Comparable Models by Luxaire

Model Comparison by Features

Similar to the AL21, the Acclimate™ Series AL19 can also be found among Luxaire's selection of premium-level air conditioners. With a SEER rating of up to 19, the AL19's two-stage operation is slightly less efficient than the AL21's variable-speed design. Otherwise, the Acclimate™ Series AL19 lacks a number of its competitor’s innovative features, such as the Charge Smart™ and Climate Sync™ systems.

Model Comparison by Price

Despite their minor differences, Acclimate™ Series AL19 and AL21 air conditioners are available at a similar price point with installation included. However, when you consider the long-term value, the ENERGY STAR-certified AL21 appears to be the more cost-effective of the two options.

Model Comparison by Premium Tier

The Luxaire Acclimate™ Series AL21 is an impressive premium tier air conditioner. Featuring an adaptable variable-speed design with a handful of additional innovations to increase efficiency and reduce noise, this model fairs well when compared to premium tier offerings from other manufacturers. Additionally, Luxaire's warranty coverage is comprehensive enough that consumers will have complete peace of mind after purchasing one of these models.
