Summary:The hot weather has continued recently. It is recommended to take temporary cooling measures first and then consider replacing them with new ones during the sales season (school season starts at the end of August). When choosing an air conditioner, you need to comprehensively consider factors such as room orientation, floor height, and thermal insulation conditions. The number of units should be large rather than small. If you choose the "air conditioner + fan" combination plan, be sure to keep a safe distance of at least 2 meters.
