What will electricity bill be with 3 window a/c units?

i am thinking about renting a 2 bedroom house with 3 window a/c units instead of central air.


i live on the SE texas coast so i can get very hot here like 90-98 degrees everyday.


the landlord says they are efficient window units.


has any one lived in this type of climate with window units as main way to cool home? will electric bill be insane or about the same as central?

Definetly NOT the same as central. Sorry to be the barer of bad news.





I live in a 2000 sq ft home %26amp; my electric bill last month was $88.00.


When I lived in a 600sq ft apartment (2 yrs old complex) my bill was always over $200!!





It all depends on how old the house is and if it's been energy efficient .... weathering strips,cracks repaired, etc.


As well as the quality of the unit.. in this case the window unit.





you're looking at a very high electric bill.





Try staying out of the house as much as possible.. that'll avoid the AC usage!





good luck!

Reply:Will be much more than central. My old house was small and had 2 units. My summer bill would be $300-$400 a month.
