Warm bedroom due to sun location - will this do anything?

[Cyclonepride]

Don't do it. All it will do is make you married to a wife who can't sleep without the sound of a fan. Then all of a sudden you're on a trip in a hotel and she's freaking out because there is no fan, so you have to stay up as she tries out 10 faux fan sounding apps until she finds one she can blare right next to you.

Sound machine FTW. Never slept as well in a hotel

You need more lobby beers.

I have an exxxxxxcelent solution to your problem.

Is this the voice of experience speaking?

I've had it up to *here* with these damn rickets!

Summer, change the airflow to 90% upstairs to the bedrooms. Cool air sinks.

Winter, reverse the airflow. Warm air rises. A temperature inversion is easily felt halfway up the stairway. Going through it punches a hole in it and the inversion disappears.

Option D. In your new attic of your new home when you move to Iowa!

I pack my little lightweight Vornado fan. You should have seen me arguing with the ship's engineer when they tried to confiscate it (but left my heating pad alone...go figure). PS...I won.

Why not do both? Then the air in the room is constantly being recycled.

Best to worst in terms of cooling imho:
The portable AC units are awesome.
Close as many vents as you can in the cold areas, so more air is forced to your MB.
Fan on the floor from the cold area.

I cant sleep at any temp over 72, so I like it frigid. Life's too short to be uncomfortable, so I'd ge the AC unit it you can't figure it out.

 

[DurangoCy]

Not being a smart azz, but can you plant a tree? Thats one of the best ways to help with afternoon solar loading. long term

His water bill might cancel out the AC bill!

I don't understand why anyone would choose to live in Phoenix.

Have you considered not living in a region that sees 108-degree temps at 10pm? I would absolutely go out and find a rattlesnake to just bite me and get it over with if I had to spend more than a few days in a climate like that.

 

[BCClone]

Lol, I will run the ac but I dont like heat. And I have massive trees surrounding my house so if the windows and blinds are closed it can be 68 in my house even in July.

You would love North Iowa this morning, if you don't live up here. It's a balmy 40 right now. Too darn cold and 3-6 inches of snow coming tonight.

I set our thermostat for 72 in the summer. I set it to 69 in the winter because I'm not very mature.

69 during the winter can be pretty warm.

The correct term is hot.
