Benefits And Costs Of Window Air Conditioners Versus Portable Air Conditioners
It’s hot and balmy outside and the humidity is making you sweat more than normal. You walk inside and notice that it is just as hot inside as it is outside. Your wife and kids let you know the A/C is broken and it’s time to buy a new one or two.
What a nice way to end the day after a hard day at work. You can handle this stressful situation by buying a new energy-efficient air conditioner for your home or apartment. Let’s do a quick review of some of your potential choices that will not break your budget.
You can choose from window AC units, and portable AC units. They each have their pros and cons. Portable AC units tend to cost more than window AC units. They provide higher BTUs which translates into more cooling power. Portable systems are nice because they go with you where you need to stay cool. They are energy efficient and Energy Star rated so you do not have to worry about a high electricity bill in the mail.
Frigidaire and Haier make some affordable window units for around $200 with free shipping. These options can save you money over a central A/C unit especially when you spend most of your time in one or two rooms of the house. You can pick up two for around $400 and cool up to 800 square feet. That should be enough to cover your bedroom, living room and dining room.
You have several options to cool down your home or apartment without getting stuck with a high energy bill. You get to shop from more brands with a larger selection and get free shipping online which allows you to buy a larger unit for the same money as your local store.
