Thomasville, GA. BIG ON A/C UNITS – U CAN’T HAVE TO MANY! (ENERGY HOGS)

We do not understand how a 2,500 square foot home would be using 2 or even 3 A/C units. This doesn't make any sense, So when looking at homes in South Georgia and Thomasville, GA. I would definitely take a look at how many a/c unit the home has if not you could probably spend more for your electric bill then mortgage  

Many people buy an air conditioner that is too large, thinking it will provide better cooling. However, an oversized air conditioner is actually less effective — and wastes energy at the same time. Air conditioners remove both heat and humidity from the air. If the unit is too large, it will cool the room quickly, but only remove some of the humidity. This leaves the room with a damp, clammy feeling. A properly sized unit will remove humidity effectively as it cools.
