1 year agoI see lots of folks round our way with the windows open on hot days. I’ve been keeping all the windows closed and blinds down during the day, open it all up in the evening and morning to get the heat right down for the next day, works like a charm. If it does ramp up from this over the next few decades, we’re definitely going to have to put the infrastructure in place for the AC load and decent insulation.
I bought oodies for the whole family, paid for themselves in a couple of weeks. I had to figure out where the mold point was with the heating (too cold and you get mold) so we still had it on, but it was 3 degrees lower on the thermostat than the previous year. Not everyone can do it, for sure.
