Cheaper AC repairs in Orlando, FL like aren’t usually very good.

Air conditioning isn’t really a luxury anymore. But with how expensive some air conditioner models can be, they’re not really classified as a necessity either. They exist in the same place as cars do, being necessary for some people and luxuries for others.

It’s Time to Upgrade From a Window Unit
July 25th, 2022
Window unit air conditioners are probably the most common system we see used across the country. In the north they’re perfectly fine, since summertime isn’t very long or hot. A window unit to ensure everyone sleeps on a hot night is usually enough to make it through a summer heatwave.
However, where we live, it’s a lot harder to function in your day to day life without a central air conditioner or heat pump. Window units just don’t have the power or the capacity to be able to let you live your life in the space you need to. Especially for families that require a lot of space, where each kid or family member has their own room, you’ll quickly find that you need multiple window units.
Today, we’re going to make the case as to why your next AC installation in Orlando should be a central AC unit or a heat pump.
The Need for AC: An Explanation
July 11th, 2022
One of the most common things we hear from families in our area is the fact that certain people think they can live without air conditioning. Ever since the invention of AC technology, it’s been thought that AC was more of a luxury than a necessity. Many people, it seems, can go without it and it just depends on your lifestyle, your budget, and your own personal preference, right?
Well, not exactly. A lot of people can feel like they’re forced to go without air conditioning because they think they’re cutting the costs needed for something else. Others believe that air conditioning is “too expensive” and is a luxury they can go without, but that might not always be the case.
We want to remind people that there is a legitimate need for air conditioning in Orlando, FL, and depending on how you live your life, it might not be as expensive as you think.
