As you might imagine (well, as I might imagine, actually), I know that here in Texas our air conditioning unit, the HVAC unit is definitely something that costs us a lot of money in electric bills every month. Granted, there are a few months each year when we are actually able to open up our windows and air the house out a bit, and not rely on air conditioning or the heat.

Technology is getting closer and closer to making sense when it comes to our electric bills: you can now get what is called “solar assisted” air conditioning, and I hear that Lennox is one of the first companies to actually offer it.

Why didn’t they think of this before? We have had solar power for a while now, but we actually now can power our air conditioner (well, at least partially).
