swestrupFor at least the last week its been cold and damp at night -- perfect sleeping weather. Despite this, I've been running my air conditioner in the bedroom. The problem is that the damn thing takes up all the window space. I can't open the windows while its in place. Added to that, its a huge unit that takes two people several hours to dismount from the window. (The case is bolted in place and you have to remove the guts to unbolt it.)
If I could open the window fully then the passive ventilation would be enough to get the room (which is usally quite stuffy and warm) down to a reasonable sleeping temperature. If I just set the AC on 'ventilate' it moves so little air through the room that I hardly notice the drop in temperature. So, I'm cursed to use the A/C unit well after the time that it should be necessary. I'll probably be using it, off and on, until well into october.
I find it ironic that if I didn't own a bedroom A/C right now, I wouldn't need one.
