Looking for a window air conditioner with heat? There aren’t too many models out there these days that have incorporated heat as one of their functions. It makes things a lot easier when you can have both cooling and heating packed into one appliance. The BTU of the air conditioning will be higher than that of the heating system so make sure to keep that in mind.
