Air Conditioners

6sqft’s series Apartment Living 101 is aimed at helping New Yorkers navigate the challenges of creating a happy home in the big city. With temperatures climbing, we put together the best products and tips for keeping your apartment cool this summer. If you're not one of the lucky ones who has central cooling in their apartment, the summer months can be a challenge. A regular old fan won't always do the trick, and traditional wall-unit air conditioners are bulky, hard to install, loud, expensive to run, and often associated with health risks such as respiratory issues, headaches, and skin irritation. If you're looking to try something new this season, 6sqft has rounded up several products and innovations perfect for keeping apartment dwellers from sticking to the sheets when the mercury rises. We've also put together a list of tips for those who want to go completely off-the-grid and for those who simply can't give up the wall unit, but want to be less wasteful.
