It's hotter in my house than it is at work. I'd rather be there right now. Hopefully this window a/c unit will help... a little bit. The house is currently at 80ºF.

That's too freaking hot.

Ahhhhhhh early morning rides, gotta love them :pepper:

Why is it that some folks keep their house cooler in the summer than it is in the winter and crank the heat in the winter which is warmer than it is in the summer???? :shock:

I have always wondered the same. Cool it to 70 ( or below) in the summer and need it 85 in the winter
I've ran mine twice this year, but only for a couple of hours.
What many don't do either is have enough insulation in their walls and ceiling. So the AC has to work double hard to try and cool all the air

I had mine running for awhile but the sun cooks my house most of the day and the insulation in the walls is nonexistent, I think. 73*-75* is good though. I just can't seem to get a cool breeze through my house even with the attic fan. Never had this problem when I lived in the country.

My house stays 74* in summer, then drop to 68-69* in winter...cause I'm cheap and tell the family to use a fan or put on soem more clothes LOL

Man, spent weekend finishing drywall, guess I 3rd coat/skim coated then sanded and wiped down about 30 sheets of 12' drywall. My hand and shoulder hurts today. Thankfully I get a break as we are waiting for final inspection then the rest of the 35-40 sheets gets hung. Looked like a snowman yesterday, I was all white. :dizzy:

I'll tell you why.

Some people are impatient and can't wait to either warm up or cool down. The instant relief feel from the heat/cold outside makes them feel better... quickly.

Some people think that the lower the setting the colder the air will be coming out of the vent. That is true with some of the larger commercial buildings but not all of them. I've put dummy thermostats in offices where people just can't be satisified unless they control it. It's funny the placebo effect they have.

I could care less what his big brother does to my big brother, he on his own. I already saved him many times from the dreaded swirly, my big brother is smaller than me :goink:

He did however grow up to be a BIG jerk :shock:

Not only that :arrow:

I know Tom doesn't have a big brother :wink:

Yeppers, so very special you are, you got to sit directly behind the driver of the short yellow bus :goink:

Fitting pontoons to Suzi, just have to work out the paddle tire quick disconnect and the lil issue of transporting the pontoons if I should ever find dry ground again :shock:
