Air Conditioning

I'm thankful that it hasn't been too humid or hot to have the AC on yet. Trying to save on that CILCO bill!!! Luckily we have a high tolerance for warmth and the ceiling fans and the cool air from the outside/open windos at night due us quite well. Don't know how much longer we'll last with no AC, as it's July already!

Re: Air Conditioning

  • Okay, so I gave in tonight and turned it on at 7pm when I got home from work. The fans are going too, but I'm hoping to drop the house down to about 76.
  • wow!!!  We've had ours on for at least 2 months :)  My DH is a big wimp though, he likes it set at 70!  At least electric is cheaper than gas....so we save on that in summer :)

  • My DH is a big wimp too... he needs fans on 365 days a year (seriously, in the middle of January and it's 10 below you still need a fan going?!?!?!???)

    Luckily we'll get a break in the hot weather later in the week (but not for long though). This is the time of year where I could handle living in Minnesota... just not for the winter thing. Paradise

  • haha yeah, I couldn't live in the bitter cold but during the summer it still gets pretty hot :(  So that's no fun either.

  • Okay... we're mad. The AC doesn't work. Just blows warm air. We let our builder know (since it's still under warranty). Go figure. We looked to make sure there was no major "switch" or anything to make it go from heat to AC, but didn't see anything on the unit in the basement. I hope it's not a 1st time homeowner issue so I don't look like a fool. I'm glad we put a number of ceiling fans in the house!
  • Okay so we look like a fool... the breaker wasn't on for the AC. No clue why the breaker was off, but the heat worked all winter!
