Do you have fans or air conditioning...or neither?  

We used to use fans, but every summer it go so hot that we could not stand it. So a few years ago, my husband went to Sears and had them install an Air conditioner. We usually have it on during the day, but not at night. When we came home from our cruise, the house was so hot in spite of the fact that we had re-insulated the attic. So we turned the air conditioner on and it was much better. I have never tried those that go into windows, but my sister-in-law who had an apartment had on.

We use an air conditioner and it is on 24/7!
Although I could get by just fine with fans, my husband likes the house freezing!
I am so use to the cold temperatures that now, every time I step outside, my face turns beat red and I get so hot!
I keep telling my husband to turn it off for awhile, especially when it is cool outside, but he refuses.
He has to work in the heat all day, so he likes it sooo cold when he comes home.

We used to have air conditioners at our old house (which is just beside our new house) but now we only use fans. The house was specially built to follow the natural course of air or wind through the house. So it's cooler, and no need for air conditioning.

It's just now I understand why a house needs to have an architect to look over the construction, and when choosing an architect one must be keen enough to understand whether that person has any idea or specialization on air or wind, because if he has none, then you'll end up in a box supported by air conditioners when you don't need it at all.

We have both ceiling fans and aircon. I don't like using the aircon so much because I get too cold. We live in an apartment setting and our corridor is much colder than my own home. I left our front door open slightly and could feel the cool air coming in yesterday LOL Today its hot and bright outside so the blinds are turned down and I have the ceiling fan going just to circulate the air.

My son has seasonal allergies so once in a while I turn the aircon on during the day and night.

I have both. But I will only use AC if it is super hot. This is because air conditioning makes me really cold and I don't like that feeling. I prefer to feel the heat and the natural air, as I think it is healthier.

I have just had air conditioners installed, and there are also fans installed in the bedrooms upstairs. I love the coolness at the flick of a button.

When I lived further south, life without an air conditioner really didn't seem to be an option. Every year where I grew up their would be the death toll of elderly people and such who died from heat stroke in their own homes because they didn't have one. There were times when I lived in places that didn't have air conditioners, and I would get very ill because of the heat.

Now that I live in Michigan, it's not as bad, but I still prefer to have the option of the air conditioner on really hot days. My husband and I own a small one that's really only meant to cool one room, and we only use it on the absolute hottest days. It runs up the power bill very quickly, so otherwise we try to get by with fans.

We don't have air conditioning at all (as is the case with most residences in Seattle), so we have a couple of fans to help keep us cool. As long as the sun isn't shining on the balcony, we can open it up and put a fan in the doorway to bring in cooler air.

If it gets too bad to bear, we'll go to the mall or the movies, or some public place that has air conditioning, and wait for it to cool off in the evening.

I have two (2) electric fans in my place. But I do not have air conditioning for various reasons like 1.) It’s quite expensive. 2.) I worry about the additional electricity charge that it would bring and 3.) I can still manage without an air con. I live alone so I really don’t think it is cost efficient to install an A/C. I plan to have a unit installed when the time comes that I really could not bear the heat any longer.

We have a/c downstairs and use fans at night upstairs. We do not use the a/c much only briefly when it gets too sticky in the house. We are usually out at the hottest time of the day. I would like to swim every day, like I did when my kids were small. I drink lots of cold water, and shower frequently. How about you.
