Finally replaced Old Shivvers last night. He was about 9 years old, and was loud, didn’t work all that well, and was loud. We have an open floorplan on the first floor so we need a bigger air conditioner to cover the whole area. Back when we bought him we didn’t have a lot of cash so he definitely wasn’t top of the line by any stretch of the imagination.
I got a Kenmore last night that has a timer on it, so I can set it to start up about an hour before we get home. You cannot begin to imagine how great a feature this is. With the old one, if we wanted to have the house cool when we got home, we had to leave it on all day. This was a total waste of electricity.
And it’s quiet. That alone is worth the [sale] price. So today we’re expecting 93, and when I get home tonight…it won’t be an oven!
