I'm British so pretty far north so YMMV, but while it can get hot here these days, it's very rarely hot enough to justify owning an air con unit for the whole year. There's probably 2 weeks of the year at most (and I'm on the south coast) where I feel like I need air con at home. And being on the south coast means the sea and it's breeze are a 10 minute walk away anyways. This does feel like it's changing every year though, definitely not a bad time to get into the AC business.
