Today there is no way I could even think about lifting something like a heavy window air conditioning system! Window air conditioning systems back then could get quite heavy.
As we get older one thing that becomes an issue is heavy lifting. We can not do the kind of things we did when we were young and younger. Like for instance back when I used to every single summer have to haul a rather large and heavy window air conditioning system up from the basement to the living room. Today there is no way I could even think about lifting something like a heavy window air conditioning system! Window air conditioning systems back then could get quite heavy. I know they still make window air conditioning systems today, but I have no idea if they are just as heavy as they used to be or if they are now lighter. Regardless, when I think back to all the heavy lifting I did with that old and large window air conditioning system back in the day, it makes my body hurt! I would probably kill myself trying to lift one of those window air conditioning systems today. This is why I am so glad that central heating and cooling is affordable and the normal when it comes to heating and cooling your home these days. I would have probably had to have hired some kind of physical labor specialist today if window air conditioning systems were still the main way to get air conditioning in your home because there is no way in the whole wide world that I would have been able to handle such a heavy lifting task in my older to middle ages as I am now.
