Aristocrat To cool or not To cool ?

I'm in MD with a non cooled unit. So far so good with the central air.The cabinet stays in the 68 to 72 degree range.
If you lose power,those cooling units wont help you unless of course you have back-up power

If you're getting along fine without a cooled unit now, then I can't see why you'd want to spend the extra $$ unless you think you might move to a hotter climate someday.

I live in the desert and had Bob put double cooling units in my Aristocrat. It was a wise investment - they run a lot in the summer.

Well if you look at it like that if a door falls off it won't hold humidity.

I live in Ca and today it is 100 degs so unless I want a beetle circus I have to have a cooled unit. I have the Aristocrat M Plus THC and it has worked out great. You do loss a little room because you don't want to block the cooling fans but other then that it is great.
If you can keep the temp down in the 65 to 68 ranges all year I wouldn't get a cooled one and save yourself some real cash.
