Hi all,
Is anyone else finding the summers just get hotter every year? I am not a big fan of heat anything above 28 degrees it’s become unbearable for me. We’re seriously thinking about installing air conditioning units in our bedrooms – the kind that do both hot and cold, so they’re useful year-round. Has anyone gone down this route? Are they worth the cost to install and run?

Thanks in Advance ! 😊

We had the same issue last summer and ended up installing ilmalämpöpumput in the bedrooms. Game changer during hot spells—so much quieter than portable units, and you don’t need to mess about with hoses hanging out the window. Ours can be used for heating in the winter too, and it’s helped lower our heating bills a bit. The installation was quick, way easier than I expected.
