Anyone else running their A/C units yet?
 

in light of all this winter storm talk in the news, you gotta love Phoenix, AZ... barely March and we've had the A/C running most nights already, plus it's only been in the low 80s here... 110s here we come!

I like it warm. I leave the A/C off until once the house is above 80.

same here, except that our 2nd floor gets warm real quick with the constant pounding from the sun... and i like it cool at night

don't you hate those $700-800 electric bills in summer? LOL

ya I'm glad to have a one story now!

I'm just waiting for my pool to get warm enough to swim in.. got the solar cover on to warm it up faster

Solar panels :) LOL, actually I do have solar panels, but they only cover like $20 per month. I think my house or maybe me is amazingly efficient, we rarely go over $125 (typically like $50), but really have no idea how.

I'll bring you compact flourescent light bulbs at the phx forum :)

Fuck you ........ :1orglaugh

nice! we made the mistake of keeping our pool at 85 in october last year... holy natural gas bill batman!

so invite me over sometime! don't you live kinda nearby now?

A/C,,, have it but never use it:winkwink:

wow $125 on your electric? how do you do it?

my studio house even pushes $400 in the summer and nobody lives there :(

ya I think so.. it's like a half mile above happy valley on 67th ave.. I'd love for you to come over sometime!

I heard heated pools get really expensive really fast :1orglaugh

wow you are close, it's a wonder i haven't bumped into you at the circle k

we're about 3-4 miles north of happy valley, off 67th ave

Yep, 2nd floor here in Vegas get warm easy...thank god for ceiling fans in each bedroom. Was 85 degrees upstairs.

We are still waiting the warm weather, I refuse to heat the swimming pool.
Hot tub get's heated.

ya I know exactly where you are at then. right after I moved in here they were having a furniture sale at one of the model homes up about that far

haha I use that circle k many of nights after the bar having the cab stopping off to get me snacks

I'll hit you up online later this week and maybe you can stop by sometime :thumbsup

for sure, that would be cool :)

you need to pop up to my place sometime too!

I have to run mine almost all the time and I live in Colorado. We have tons of windows that face west so our house easily gets over 80 degrees in even colder months.

5 feet of snow on my front yard would really enjoy the heat!

:2 cents::2 cents:

Stop bragging, lol.

Nope Not Yet ") He He

I like to be warm, too. Which makes for some high heating bills when temps are in the teens.

But, today was the first day I've had the A/C on this year. It was about 80 in North Texas. I think it's supposed to be almost 90 this weekend.

I'm pretty sure we're running the a/c unit in the office, and other places I'm at during the day... but, by the time I get home (now), the evening's pleasantly cool.

AZ.. figures..

I have mine set to come on at like 83 and it I think is on right now but its vegas!!

its like 45 here so nah

gotta love AZ and melting CDs in your car

80 odd here today, gets up to around 100 in the summer never put the ac on unless I'm melting, about 3-4 times a year, I hate a/c and heating.
windows open in the summer, put a jumper on in the winter, electric bill about $50 a month.

My A/C is running non stop. It does help that its warm as hell here 90% of the time.. It has been cold 3 times this year down here if you consider low 50's cold.

I'm in the southern hemisphere so the answer is definitely yes. It will hit 38C / 100F tomorrow and I'm stuck in an office with 4 computers powered on 24/7

its freezin fucking cold over here..

My gas heater is still on :(

snow storms in Toronto..... long before the AC season LOL

Man I hate the feeling of AC, I love living in a place that is 72-74F all year round.
