When the summer months start to appear, many people start thinking about vacations, summer pools and of course, the air conditioner. Even though there is the option to have central air, many people find that the individual window units are a better choice. For starters, you can purchase enough individual units for way less than purchasing and installing a central air unit.
In addition, with the individual units, each room can be controlled to be a certain temperature where as with the central air unit, the whole house will be one consistent temperature. While this may sound nice, not everyone always enjoys the same temperature.
One thing that can be a hassle with the individual air conditioner is that when the colder months arrive, the unit generally has to be removed from the window and stored somewhere. This is the best way to make sure that the cold winter air does not sneak its way into your home, raising the heating bill. You also have to make sure that you are always keeping the filter or screen clean in order to make sure that the unit continues to work as great as possible. The better care you take of your air conditioner, the longer it will last.
Just make sure that when you are buying a new unit that you are getting one that comes with a warranty. Even though the air conditioner is new, you just never know when something unexpected could break. With the warranty, you will be covered instead of having to spend another two hundred dollars on a new air conditioner.
