My wife and I recently bought a brand new window air conditioner for the living room.
- We live in a part of the country that has a mild summer.
Sometimes temperatures reach 90°, but it is very rare and infrequent. Most of the time we experience temperatures that are in the 80s. I live up in the mountains, where it is regularly cool when they breathe. Summer temperatures here rarely reach 90°. There are a couple of days when the heat and humidity are unbearable. There’s no need for us to have central air conditioning, but a window air conditioner works very well. It keeps our home cool and comfortable while getting rid of excess moisture and humidity. Just recently my wife and I decided to buy a brand new window air conditioner. We chose a larger air conditioner than we previously had installed in the house. Our last air conditioner was 8,500 btu. The one that we bought this time is 15,000 btu. The window air conditioner was really easy to install. It took about 30 minutes and the machine looks great. It’s a lot larger than our other machine and much heavier too. We had to put a brace in the window in order to make sure that the machine would fit properly. The air conditioner has three different settings. There is a setting to run the fan and another setting to run the air conditioner. There is a third setting on the machine and that is a dehumidifier option. I can easily run the air conditioner to dehumidify if I am cooking or baking.
