Hey all, my A/C unit died at the end of last summer. I don't plan on replacing it this year, as I rarely use the A/C anyways. I've had a few estimates done, one at $3k and another at $8k. If I get it done, I'm going to have everything redone. The house is 70 years old, no point in keeping the old equipment. I may be knocking the house down in a few years and rebuilding it which is why I'm holding off on having the A/C fixed.
I was wondering if a portable air conditioner is worth it? I have 2 window units which I'm using currently. But, I can't use that in the living room as the windows are not big enough.
I need to buy an additional A/C unit anyways but I was wondering if I was better off getting the portable unit so that I can use it in the living room as well as the other room.
I'm thinking about getting either an 8k BTU window unit or a 10k BTU portable unit.
Preferably one of these two, as I have a 10% discount code for Lowes'.
