Ideas for Room Climate Control?

[Terry Beckingham]

I have seen a unit that is all in one. It consists of a 
humidifier/dehumidifier, and air conditioner, and I believe a heater as 
well. it is about 2 feet square and about 3 feet high. It can be connected 
to a water line to avoid filling the humidifier, and to a drain to negate 
the need to drain the dehumidifier. I believe this unit is sold by Sears in 
Canada and retails from between $900 and $1000 Canadian. My barber has one 
in her barbershop.

Cheers
