Portabale AC units?

There ya go........The lenght of the refrigerant lines can come into play for effieciency and the maximum run is clearly listed per unit. Our guys do a great job blending these into the outside of the house with over 100 different colors of insulation covering. All wires and drain lines are hidden in this covering. They have not been out long enough for us to notice any major deterioration or break down of the insulation but it will become a problem over time and is considered a consumable product. The cover removal and insulation replacment is a do-it yourself project.

Hey Drew, this is just a thought, and you should check to be sure, but..I think these efficient airconditioners should qualify for the government energy credits (at least according to Readers Digest!)..That might make the price a bit easier to take.

Hey Drew, check this link

Last I knew they went strictly business to business, but if you're in business, or know someone who is, I think the most they asked me for was my tax ID number for proof.  A wee bit less than 3K  8-)

Drew I can get you a national discount at Grainger and have it shipped direct if you'd like to investigate this more. As long as there is no star on the item price, figure close to 20 % off

Thanks for the offer T man.  I will keep it in mind.

I am still up in the air on this. (ok, I'm slowy convincining my wife that this is the way to go...)  I think I need to get a guy out to my place. I don't think I'll be doing it DYI.

I noticed the Grainer units were 230v....darn,  I haven't thought about electrical.    I've got a 110 line in the attic but will I need 220?  

As we all know electrical can add several hunderd $ to the price.  I was hoping to keep this under 2K- installed -  but if this creeps over 2K I'm nixing it I've got other toys I'm saving for and a $600 window mount will be fine.
