The temperatures in Birmingham, Alabama are very warm and humid during the summer months.
It is absolutely important to have a well-designed and energy efficient air conditioning symptom to keep cold air inside of your home and warm air and moisture outside. Birmingham during June and July can be 90° and there is risk of sudden and severe thunderstorms every afternoon. There is also a risk of Summer tropical storm activity and hurricanes. Most of the time Birmingham doesn’t get hit very hard, but every once in a while there is a storm that makes it past the coast and hits us head on. Last year we had a storm like this and the power was out for two days. My family and I did not have any air conditioning while the storm had the power out. It’s absolutely miserable to go without air conditioning during the summer months and it can be detrimental to the health of your home. The indoor air conditions can suffer when the temperatures are warm and there is excess moisture and condensation. We had a generator, but we could not get the machine to start. The generator was at least 10 years old and it has been a very long time since we used it. We are prepared this year with a brand new generator. It can run the refrigerator, deep freezer, air conditioner, and several other outlets throughout the house. We’re prepared for the first time in a while, so I’m assuming we won’t have any problems at all.
