What’s the Difference Between a Central Air Conditioner and Window Unit?

What’s the Difference Between a Central Air Conditioner and Window Unit?

Window units can cool single rooms, and a central air conditioner can cool an entire building. Central air conditioning is cheaper, more efficient, and more effective at powering several rooms or a whole building. Central air conditioning can distribute cold air evenly throughout the entire building, so the temperature is consistent throughout, and window units only cool the room that they are in. Central air conditioning is more effective at keeping humidity out than window units.

How Long Does a Central Air Conditioner Last?

A central air conditioner can last 15-20 years or more with proper maintenance and care. Air conditioners can lose efficiency as they age. When air conditioners reach over ten years of age, it is common to see a drop in performance, however, the longevity of air conditioners can vary based on the quality of the installation, maintenance, and the type of unit. If an air conditioner is close to failure and is requiring numerous repairs and is no longer efficient, it can end up saving the home or business owner time and money to replace the unit, before the unit fails.
