He was absolutely right, and I am so glad!

So what's the big deal about a wall mount air conditioner? To start, they are smaller than the average air conditioning unit, they are much quieter, they help to keep pollen and other pollutants out of the home, and better yet, they use less energy than their conventional counterparts.

Some wonder just what the wall mount air conditioners look like. It's really simple. The inside units are about 8 inches by 12 inches by about 4 feet and hang about as high as the top of a picture. They really blend in well to any decor. The outside unit is similar to the outside unit for a central air conditioning system but a little bit smaller. Our home is a standard ranch style house so we have two larger split units and a smaller one for a small bedroom.

Some people get concerned about installation. Let me assure you the installation is really simple. It's just a matter of drilling a three inch hole in the wall, installing the inside unit on the wall with a few screws. Then put the outside unit on a cement pad. After that, connect them together and hook up the power. Oh yes, one final thing the battery needs to be installed in the programmable remote. Then you're up and running, it's genius!

What we did in our application was to use two outside units and three inside units. The outside units are simply heat pumps that pull the cool out of the summer air and bring it in the house, and in the winter extract the warmth from the outside air and bring it inside. Typical heat pump technology.

What a difference these air conditioners made! I noticed an improvement in my allergies within just a couple of days, (making my husband very happy.) I also noticed that there was less dust in my home, an added benefit since I dislike dusting. The wall units made very little operating noise, definitely much quieter than a window unit.

As I mentioned before, a wonderful feature of the wall mount air conditioners is that they are also heat pumps. Now days with the price of fossil fuels for heating our homes, it's nice to have another option. It's a clean, effortless way to provide zone heat in our home, and very comfortable. Not to mention that there is no cutting wood, or hauling in pellets as with some other heating sources!

Check out, too, that the federal government is giving a $1500 tax credit if you buy and install a new wall mount air conditioner system. Of course, you'll want to check if the model you're considering is one of the qualifying units. Your salesperson will be able to help you there.

So am I happy that we spent the money on our new wall mount air conditioner? You bet I am. I can breathe easily, I rarely sneeze anymore, our fuel bills are lower since we are using less propane and wood pellets, and we are going "green" to help the environment. You can even get a tax credit. So what's not to like?
