How Powerful An Air Conditioner Do You Need?

So, the summer heat has driven you half way to homicidal while you stare out your apartment window sizing up your options with the bell tower down the block. Well, you could always just cave in and buy an air conditioner. Consumer Reports.org has a work sheet that will help you determine the right type of AC for you.

This worksheet, adapted from a printed version published by the Association of Home Appliance Manufacturers for the continental United States, can help you estimate how much cooling capacity you need. You’ll need a tape measure, scratch paper, and a pocket calculator.

Much more fun than spraying down the neighborhood with hot lead.
