The Best Prices for Portable Air Conditioners in Tucson, Arizona

Unfortunately, a few days ago in Tucson Arizona's high July monsoon heat, my air conditioner stopped working. It was 101 degrees out with 54% humidity, which is high for Arizona. My thermostat only goes up to 88 degrees, so I know it was at least 88 degrees in the house.

It was a Saturday and I didn't know how long it would take for my repairman to come and fix my air conditioner.

I immediately went online to price portable air conditioner units.

Below are the best prices I found for portable air conditioners (not evaporative coolers) with good ratings.

Each of these portable air conditioners has easy-grip handles and 4 casters which make it easy to wheel from room to room.
