Greetings all,
I am thinking about getting a packaged terminal air conditioner for my bedroom (which is around 400 sq. ft) and am soliciting opinions and advice. What are good brands/models? How many btu's do I need? If I am tolerably handy with a set of tools, can I install it myself? Are there any particular drawbacks associated with PTAC's that I should know about? Does it plug into a wall socket, or is there some special electrical work that an electrician should do (I happen to have an electrician coming out to the house on Monday for something else anyway, so if an electrician needs to do something, I'd love to get him to do it at that time). I don't know if PTAC's come with heaters or not, but I don't need any heating from it at all...only cooling for a few months of the year.
Thanks!
Chuck
