Hubby and the Battle of the AC  |
| |
|  I have an ongoing battle with the hubby over the AC. He will set it up, but rarely turns it on. For the past 2 years we had one that he would put in the kitchen window. It offered little relief because the kitchen is not centrally located. The AC only cooled the kitchen area (somewhat). Today I suggested he put it in the living room window where the cool air would be circulated by the ceiling fan. He huffed and puffed over the suggestion.
When I arrived home this afternoon I found that he did listen to my words and put the AC in the living room window. Upon entering the house I found it was significantly cooler inside! Battle won.

| |  I am really happy for you, the heat is a killer without AC going. I have 2 window AC units, 1 upstairs and 1 down, they do the job. Its been in the high 90's for a few days, you need the AC in weather like that.

| |  lol- You go girl- Makes sense- put it where the ceiling fan will circulate it-
It has been in the 90's for the last 3 days again- We have a/c upstairs in the bedrooms- I can't sleep with a hot room- I told my sig. other we should put the other a/c in the living room- No such luck yet!

| | Once this nasty HHH breaks I am sure the he will remove it from the window. The $$ is too much for him. | | | |

| | In my house, it is the opposite. I believe in comfort, while it is the wife that watches the pennies. | | | |

| |  I am happy to hear that you won the battle and that you will be cooler in a more centrally located space. I can not imagine having that fight for 2 years.

| |  Hi Elusive, I'm glad he got it set up for you, working in the heat, and being in clients houses is draining for you. Nice to have one room where you can cool off. Does it cool your bedroom too? It really helps getting to SLEEP, I know, we have CA now, but I been there!

| |  We broke down today, and ordered an AC unit. Will have it on Thursday, when the high is about 15 degrees less then it is today...but summer is not over yet.
It will only be used in extreme heat, it is just too expensive to use all of the time. And used mainly for sleeping.
You did not have a battle, see it has cooperation...give and take..next time you will have to give...so choose your battles wisely

| |  If you cook much at all cooling the kitchen is a losing battle. I agree, the cool air is made more effective by a good ceiling fan. The other nice thing is if there is shade outside the house, then you are really getting your money's worth on the cooling. I am glad he listened, even if he did wait until you were gone to do it. Enjoy the cool spots.

| |  Good for you! A friend of mine and her hubby have the same issue, sort of. She doesn't like it as cold as he does so she has to wear a sweatsuit while he wears shorts! He keeps it extremely cold in their house. Yikes!
