Not exactly sure whether to buy a window- or a portable air conditioning unit? Let's very first take a look at the advantages and downsides of a window unit a/c. Benefits - Are more popular, thus are easier to find and price competition is in full blast - Typically have fairly low sound output and high efficiency - Water drains pipes from the unit to the outside without any intervention needed - Sends ALL hot air to the exterior as warm air is exchanged for cold - Even little systems can effectively cool 100-300 square feet Larger systems can cool rooms up to 650 square feet. - If carefully positioned, can cool more than one room - Can be positioned either in windows or wall holes Downsides - The window where you set up the air conditioning system is blocked as long as the unit exists - Dripping water outside can wind up where you do not want it such as on pedestrians on a city street. Or it can create rust on a metal roof - More of a trouble to get rid of and relocate to another room/location - Not all windows support a/c - Setup can get difficult if you do not have exterior air conditioning repair in edmonton support. It is not unusual for window systems to fall out of windows at inconvenient times, even during setup. - The panels that feature these units can let in a great deal of hot air, making the a/c unit less effective - Even the very best setup can still leave your home or home at a security danger - Rather frankly, the appearance of numerous window units in a living location is not viewed as the ultimate in
