January 31st, 2012

Question by : What are the laws for providing working air conditioning in businesses in Oregon?

I work in a restaurant that has never provided enough air conditioning to it’s employees and working has become a challenge now that the weather has been in the 80′s for a while. There is air conditioning in certain places, but it’s not always working. A lot of people want to know if there is some legal action that can be taken before something seriously happens like heat stroke. It is literally unbearable to work efficiently without AC when battling the heat of the day, the grills and other heat producing machines. Help!

No law on the issue. 80′s isn’t even close to high. I live in the south and it has been over 100 for the last month and a half.

Question by Dank: I am looking to have my AC System replaced…?

I have a two thousand square foot home, not sure of the ton of my current unit. What should I look into buying ton wise, and what should I be expecting to pay on average including heat pump, upon installation. I am asking, because I know a lot of the local companies are a little bit in cahoots, and just want a fair opinion.

Best answer:

Answer by Boe
Your current system us rated at xyz tons. Assuming what was installed originally was sized correctly for the space then the same size system should be put back in. Having said that size wise that would be for your contractor to determine based on the what is in place. Cost wise figure on average of around 6-8000K depending on efficiency of heat pump
