Everything from new installation… LiveIt's A/C season: Here's what you need to know now Forget mosquitoes: The onset of summer in NYC is marked by the universal hum of millions of window air conditioners. But are you up to date on the city's A/C rules? In the past, we've covered such critical A/C issues as whether it’s worth the money to get your unit cleaned out, tipping advice for installation, and how to install an A/C if window bars get in the way (carefully). Below, a few other must-knows:Who does the installing?Installing a window unit isn’t your super’s responsibility, it’s yours, says property manager Mark Levine of Excel Bradshaw Management Group. “Unless this is a pre-established policy within the building, a renter or unit owner shouldn’t assume that it will be taken care of by the building staff,” he says.But Levine cautions that apartment dwellers shouldn't do it themselves. Since installing a window A/C incorrectly could spell disaster for New Yorkers walking by your building, he recommends outsourcing, especially since many companies provide properly insured installation services when you purchase a new unit.

What will it cost?Brick Underground compared prices at some local air-conditioner installers to see how much it’ll cost to get your cool on and found a wide range of pricing for window installation, all of which depend upon size and type of air conditioner and whether or not bracket installation is required.the best ac units for home isAir-Wave Air Conditioning quotes $245 and up; how to disconnect an air conditioner unitFive Borough AC starts at $200, and Mike’s Air Conditioning starts at $195.What about brackets?how ac units workNYC law actually takes the frightening possibility of A/C accidents into account by requiring that window air conditioners installed in buildings six stories and higher be secured with metal brackets or mounting rails.

Please, REGISTER the service to get the warranty Receive a time and cost estimation for services that will fit your needs and your budgetThis is the story of how I lost $300 and got this bloody lip. This is the story of every New Yorker’s worst nightmare happening to me. This is the story of dropping my air conditioner out the window of my third-floor apartment. It is hot and it is also humid, and when I leave the windows open to my tiny studio apartment, the putrid smell of garbage seeps in from the outside, so I finally give in and go to P.C. Richard to buy an air conditioner.

I want to get one that is less than $150 and I leave with one that costs $300, either because the salesperson, Brian, is super-good at his job or because I am terrible at saying no. I do manage to say no to installation, however, because it costs $50 and I am a feminist who can definitely install a 100-pound air conditioner herself. “Do you think I can carry this five blocks by myself?” He laughs in my face. “Maybe if you stop every block!” “I’m just trying to be an independent woman!” “Fine, but do it right!” I snag a cab and manage to haul the AC up two flights of stairs to my apartment. It is so hot, and I am already developing a bruise in the well of my arm where the appliance’s weight pressed into me as I dragged it upstairs. I hate this air conditioner but I love it so much! Think of how much I will love it when it has turned my apartment into a comfortable icebox. As it turns out, I will never get to experience love like that. Also, I should’ve taken Brian’s advice.

After installing the side panels, I hoist the air conditioner onto the window sill and attempt to get it locked in place. It teeters a little bit, which gives me a scare, but I manage to balance it and close the window. It’s not aligned right. I open the window again and attempt to rebalance it. Suddenly, everything is happening in slow motion. It is sliding, literally at about an inch a minute, out of my grasp and into midair. I blindly grasp at it, helplessly screaming, “No! My cat’s like, “What is wrong with her?” The air conditioner slides out of my hands and takes a layer of skin with it. It plunks onto my downstairs neighbor’s patio, in a pool of standing water. It takes me about a full minute to realize I am bleeding from several places. I’m coated in sweat and I’ve started crying hysterically without really meaning to. My whole mouth is bleeding and my fingers are bleeding and I’m leaning out the window of my tiny gross studio apartment being like, Why did I decide to live alone?

Why didn’t I just ask someone to help me? Why is everything the worst? Also, I haven’t eaten dinner yet, so I’m, like, real hangry. /Ecx0lfefMD— Jessica Roy (@JessicaKRoy) May 29, 2015 I run downstairs to the bodega beneath my building, whose owner acts like my surrogate dad. He sees my face and is like, “What’s wrong?” I tell him the saga and burst into tears. “At least it didn’t hit anybody?” he offers. My neighbor is in the bodega, and he asks me where I got the AC from because maybe they’ll take it back. “P.C. Richard,” I say. God, that’s, like, the worst place to get it from.” Tha I call P.C. Richard and ask for Brian. “Hi, it’s Jessica. I’ll give you one guess what just happened to the air conditioner.” “What?” he asks, stifling a laugh. “I dropped it out the window!” I’m “Are you crying?” Brian asks, totally weirded out. , like, upset! I’m guys won’t, like … refund me, right?”

his head, I am positive he thinks, What is wrong with this crazy bitch? A lot of things, to be honest, but first and foremost what is wrong is that I dropped the $300 air conditioner out the window an hour after getting it. “Let me talk to my manager,” Brian says. He puts me on hold for 30 seconds. “There’s nothing we can do,” he informs me. “It’s not our fault you dropped it.” Tough but fair, Bri. Tou Finally, I give in and call my landlord. I’m, get it together, Jess. "Hi, um, I live in 3 and I … dropped the air conditioner out the window," I say to my landlord, whom I’ve only spoken to maybe twice. “Did it fall through the roof of the store?” he asks, immediately making me question the structural integrity of my building. “Uh, no … but it’s in a puddle on the second-floor patio, and I need to get it.” He tells me the person who lives in that apartment, a member of his family, works nights, so we can’t retrieve it until tomorrow. “Ev
