I plan to call the landlord in the morning (today is a holiday in the
US) and have them fix it. But I definitely am considering buying a unit
for the bedroom at Lowes. It's only when it gets into the 90s that the
bedroom becomes a problem, but that's three months a year, and I'm tired
of being miserable all summer long.


5,000-btuh is all you would need for the bedroom.
However, I cool 920-sq. ft. first floor (older home) with my 6,000-btuh
Whirlpool Quiet Partner (very quiet) with Remote Electronic controls.
It's a world beater, and I love it! Consider it!
