we don't chase the ambient air temps back and forth, totally stupid to run the Heat for 5 days, and the the A/C for one day.
we have a monster ceiling Exhaust Fan in the back hallway. It is so big, that even with the Front doors, rear patio door, and the kitchen/utility room doors all open, you can feel the draft in any room.....
oh, did I mention it needs a muffler to dampen the noise
The temperatures can vary so widely in a single day here in the AZ desert, it's not unusual for both the AC and the furnace to run during the same day at certain times of the year, generally spring and fall but also sometimes during the winter. I keep the AC thermostat set at 78° and the furnace thermostat at 73°.AZgl1500 wrote: ⤴Sun Dec 26, 2021 11:09 amwe here in Okieland came close, 80*F but we left the HVAC for the house in Heat Mode,

I leave our HVAC fan 'ON' all the time, to keep the different areas of the house, even....Lady Fitzgerald wrote: ⤴Sun Dec 26, 2021 1:14 pm

The fan for the AC is the loud one in my humble hovel (the ductwork is a bit too small). I leave the fan running all the time when the weather is warm enough for the AC to be coming on and off so I can adjust to its roar not listen to it coming on and off. During those times of the year when the AC won't be running at night but will run during the day, I leave the fan set to auto until the AC first comes on, then I switch it to on for the rest of the day. I'll switch it back to auto when I go to bed; sooner if the furnace comes on.
much the same here in Oologah, 30 miles from Kansas,
THAT IS COLD!!!
Texicans sure are a whiny bunch. Yesterday it was all "It's too cold" and today it is all "It's not cold enough ... and it's going to rain this weekend."
Oh no I would Love for some rain to fall.BenTrabetere wrote: ⤴Tue Jan 04, 2022 11:23 amTexicans sure are a whiny bunch. Yesterday it was all "It's too cold" and today it is all "It's not cold enough ... and it's going to rain this weekend."
With those temperature swings, I would be whining, too!BenTrabetere wrote: ⤴Tue Jan 04, 2022 11:23 amTexicans sure are a whiny bunch. Yesterday it was all "It's too cold" and today it is all "It's not cold enough ... and it's going to rain this weekend."
Those swings are not too bad. Certainly not the worst I have experienced. When I lived in New Orleans and in Dallas it was not at all unusual to start the day in the mid-70s, and by the early afternoon the wind shifted and the temperature dropped to the mid-20s. Or the temperature swing was reversed and you were lugging around a heavy coat for the better part of the day. (Yes, on occasion I, too, am a whiner.)Lady Fitzgerald wrote: ⤴Tue Jan 04, 2022 6:03 pm With those temperature swings, I would be whining, too!
You can say that again!
