A/C - Tip of the Day

[deguspice]

This afternoon, I bought a cheap furniture dolly and then used it to roll the A/C from its closet in the bathroom, down the hall and into the room with the computer. My back really appreciated it.

I still had to lift the A/C onto the dolly, and then lift it from the dolly to the window (with A's help), but those were brief exertions.

Next fall, I get to figure out if I can roll the A/C into the closet on the dolly (the closet has a small threshold). If I can, that will eliminate the struggle to get it into the closet.


(by cheap, I mean for the price I paid, it was well worth it, even if I only use it for moving the A/C)

I use a hand-truck with a tie-down strap for the horribly heavy living room A/C, including the two flights of stairs between the living room and basement. Makes it doable without help, but it's my least favorite semiannual chore.

That's a good use of a hand truck.

I'm glad I don't have to deal with stairs to move my A/C.
