With summer coming soon I just bought a portable ac unit. Expensive What's your preference portable or window unit, or maybe just a fan? Why do you prefer that choice?

@dgobucks226 I don't mind having a fan. Though, when it gets really hot and humid, the air conditioning in the house is preferred. Since that will cool the entire house in one go.

@VivaLaDani13 I guess your summer will be arriving in a few months too. Get that AC ready

We are currently in a heat wave with temps in the mid 90's. So, yes, the AC which I prefer not to run if at all possible is cranking, lol.

Yes agree. Much easier to move and easy setup.

I boourght a porrtable AC unit last year too, and I love mine. I do have central air but it will cost $2000 to fix it, and I certainly don't have that kind of monehy whatsoever. I decided that a protable AC unit would fit the bill, and it has nicely. it only cost me $250, and that is affordable, when it costs so much more to get my heat pump fixed. I am glad that I invested in the AC.

I would prefer an AC, but right now can't afford nor the utilities fee for AC use. I've read somewhere that the inverter type consume much less electricity. But price of the unit is much more expensive than regular AC (portable and window types)

My bills skyrocket during the summer months. I try to limit using the AC to when it's hot and humid. Our upstairs area really heats up.

Immediate cooling effect is offered by an ac. But I would prefer a fan than ac because after being in ac room for sometime, it is hard for me to come out. ...and when I come out I feel my body becomes more hotter than before. So I would prefer ac only at night..
