Air Conditioners
« on: October 21, 2006, 08:52:19 pm »
Well I need 2 new AC's and I figured now is a good time to buy since I can probably get a good  deal and I want everything setup so next summer I dont have to worry about this stuff.

Can anyone recommend a good brand/model?  For my bedroom figure its between 200-250 square feet.
For the living room/dining area, between 400-450 square feet.

Thanks.

Bestbuy has Whirlpool....Home Depot has Fedders.

Jeff,

Are these units also going to supply heat in the winter? Or are they just for AC /

Jeff,

I am not sure what to suggest to you. I haven't dealt with wall unit AC units in some time. I think a lot of these units now, are made overseas.

Also check if there is a noise rating for the units , that you may purchase. You don't want something loud, or a compressor sounding like a coil spring dropping, everytime it goes on. I think you can probably get good deals at any of the home stores. I always liked Rheem, but I don't know if they make wall unit AC units any more. And the stores will most likely try to sell you extended warranty also...


happy shopping--------Ray

Jeff, whatever "ass cooler" your looking for, do your research..  Watch out for ones that have a brain.  The brains fry with power spikes, humidity, looking at them wrong, etc..

Youve got time to do your googles...
