FAQs About Air Conditioning and Heating

Air conditioning provides year-round comfort, ensuring a cool environment in summer and warmth in winter. It also improves air quality and enhances overall well-being.

Yes. With an efficient air conditioning system, you don’t need to leave windows or doors open for ventilation, reducing the risk of intruders entering your property. 


Modern air conditioning units operate quietly, and some even have silent modes. Keeping windows and doors closed further minimizes external noise pollution. 


By maintaining an optimal indoor temperature, air conditioning helps prevent heat-related illnesses like dehydration and heatstroke, while also promoting better circulation.

On average, a portable air conditioner costs 27p-38p an hour to run, depending on the size of the unit. However, as portable units are less efficient than fixed ones, you may find that you need to buy and run additional units. A wall mounted aircon unit costs around 10p an hour when cooling and 15p an hour for heating.


Pros:

  • Cheaper to buy
  • No installation required
  • Can be moved to other locations and rooms
  • More suitable for rented premises (no landlord permission required)

  

Cons:

  • Takes up floor space
  • Noisier than wall-mounted units
  • Less powerful than wall-mounted units
  • More prone to breaking
  • More expensive to run (they use more energy)
  • Can only cool, no heating or dehumidifying capability

  • Suitable for larger rooms
  • Longer lasting than portable units
