>>I've also noticed that when the air conditioner comes on the monitor picture shakes visibly, then settles down after a few seconds and the flicker starts. Altho this has never happened before I think there is something funky about the current in the house because I often get a low voltage alarm from my surge protector when various devices come one, i.e. an extra light, AC, a fan, etc.<<

If it were me I'd get a stand-by power supply. At the very least you might want to look into getting an APC Line-R power conditioner. It can compensate for your brown-outs.
