Hire a portable air conditioning unit
One of the easiest ways to keep your home cool is to opt for air conditioning.
If your home doesn’t have central air conditioning, consider hiring a portable unit in warmer weather. Hiring cooling equipment saves you the time, money and hassle of installing air con whilst providing all the same benefits.
These systems are very effective and quickly deliver cool air throughout your home so it will stay comfortable during warmer summer months.
Which air conditioning unit is best?
There are lots of options when it comes to air conditioning. You can use a portable air conditioner if you don’t have central air or as a way to spot cool areas in your home that tend to overheat in hot summer months.
You might be wondering:
"How do I know which size of air conditioner is right for my home?"
Well, it depends on how large your home is and how many rooms you want to cool at once.
If you want a big, powerful machine that can cool several rooms at once, then we recommend getting a two-stage or three-stage unit. These types of ACs have coils on top that allow them to dehumidify air as well as cool it down. This means they're great at removing moisture from the air so that the room feels dryer – and better smelling!
If you just want something small and portable that will keep your favourite room in the house nice and cool, then we recommend getting a single-stage unit instead.
