As temperatures rise worldwide, having a fan or air conditioner at home is essential. Window ACs are popular choices for cooling smaller spaces, with July and Windmill being top brands. Both offer sleek, efficient, and easy-to-install units with similar features. July’s AC is compatible with different window types and has various modes and programs, while Windmill offers two models with different fan and compressor technology.
Both brands have Wi-Fi enabled ACs that can be controlled via apps or voice commands. July’s AC comes with additional filters for purifying air, while Windmill offers decorative front panels. The installation process for both brands is straightforward, but Windmill also offers a Taskrabbit service for installation.
During a trial period in New York City, NBC Select staff tested both July and Windmill ACs to evaluate cooling efficiency, noise levels, and overall user-friendliness. July’s 6K BTU model and Windmill’s 8K BTU WhisperTech model were compared, with positive feedback on both units’ performance in hot, humid conditions.
While both brands offer similar features and performance, key differences include size options and window compatibility. Windmill has a wider range of sizes and models to choose from, while July offers compatibility with different types of windows. Ultimately, choosing between July and Windmill comes down to personal preference and specific needs for cooling.
