You’ve been looking for different ways to help keep your home cool, but you aren’t sure if you should use a Window AC Unit or a Home AC Unit. To help you make a decision, we looked at how much energy each appliance typically uses.
Let’s look at wattage.
Window AC Unit = 1,400 Watts <Home AC Unit = 4,000 Watts
While using the Window AC Unit may sound like a great idea since it uses less energy, it could be insufficient when trying to cool your entire house unless you run multiple units at once. Our suggestion would be to use your Window AC Units to cool smaller, enclosed rooms like your bedroom and use your Home AC unit to cool the rest!
