Window AC/heating units? ? ?
I live in an old apartment building where the steam-heating system is
erratic, and I'd like to have a reliable supplementary heat source. Those 1500 watt space heaters don't quite do the trick I have heard that combination air conditioning and heating units are available. I have 220 wiring in my apartment. Would like to hear from anyone who has had experience with such equipment. What about the cost of operating? |

It's a good idea, but be prepared to dish out a lot of $$$ upfront. Those dual units are expensive, not to mention the cost of operating them if your electric utility is expensive. |

The heat pumps are expensive but much more economical than heat strips or electric baseboard, wall or space heaters. Complaining to the landlord is much cheaper. |
