Uber is now offering on-demand air conditioner deliveries in NYC

As the weather in New York City starts to heat up and melt away everyone’s memories of winter, many are starting to feel the burn — of not owning an air conditioning unit. But before the heat gets so bad that your clothes start sticking to your body, transportation company Uber has just the “cool” solution for you. And you won’t even need to leave your apartment. Through a partnership with development company Quirky and GE, the Uber app will give New Yorkers the option to buy a brand new Aros air conditioner for $300 over the next couple of weekends. Interested buyers just need to type “UberCOOL” in the app’s promotion bar, as well as their credit card information, and the Aros unit will be delivered straight to their door via ice truck.
