70 outside and it's after 10 pm. Bedroom ac running.

Hopefully last cold front coming thru, Sunday.

Enjoying your weather, whatever?

I have my bedroom unit on too. I have been having all the windows and doors open and it has been great but tonight it's humid and warm. It is 78 inside.

We got snow today (southern Colorado) and a few days ago it was 70....

Why can't the thermostat be in the bedroom (AC)?
Q
Comments (5)
Thanks for the reply tigerdunes. Here's my rationale: Night - bedrooms are same size and doors are closed. So the thermostat in the room should work well to reach comfortable temp in there. Day - door of master wide open and equivalent temp to hallway so should be able to get good temps throughout house. If anything, the supply is a bit bigger for the master as we are planning an addition (master bath/closet) in 1-2 years and he was accounting for that. Still stuck on why the recommendation is always to put in hallway when most people want ideal temp in their bedroom at night

mammapinky Yes, they are. I did that on purpose. I wanted a different illusion than just the mirrors hanging, if that makes sense. I want the mirrors and curtains anchoring the bed, like a headboard. Thank you! To everyone mentioning the mirror height, don't tell my husband! (lol) He absolutely hates hanging curtains, shelves, mirrors and paintings. haha I'll have to wait to the weekend or a day we both have the time and we shall raise them. I'll have to ease him into it. ;) Should they go the same height as the curtains? Thing is, raising them any higher and the bottom of the mirrors show, which is not the effect I was going for. :/ chickadee2_gw Wow, thank you so much! :) I truly find this sight inspiring. I really appreciate all of the help you all have to offer! :) And now I can finally move on to the kitchen! rebeccamomof123 That really made me smile. :) I am so thrilled with how it all turned out and it is so nice having people to share it with, who understand. :) Thank you so much!

AC units in garage causing mold in adjacent bedroom (cross posted)
Q
Comments (6)
The information is so sketchy here that all anybody can really say with certainty is "call a pro." Are the air conditioners in the garage mini-splits, PTAC, window type, or ??? Are they cooling the garage, or some other room or part of the house? Model numbers? Photos? How did you discover the mold, and where was it? When? Have you seen any other signs of water damage or leakage, such as stains on drywall or plaster? Is there any plumbing or drainage in a room above the bedroom? Bathrooms nearby? Roof penetrations above? To make things more complicated, water can sometimes travel long distances from its source before making an appearance.

Buy an eye/sleep mask. I’m serious. I get claustrophobic when all the windows are covered up by shades/blinds and I also like the ventilation of an open window. I am an extremely light sleeper. I run an air purifier next to my bed for white noise and I wear an eye mask to block out the light. It doesn’t take long to get used to the feeling of it on your face. Worth a try.

So glad I turned the ac on. AT 2 am, it's 63 and humid outside. Front hasn't arrived yet.

I would be cherishing 70-78, not turning on a machine to replicate winter. Trying to find a beach escape where it's 90, and nope, don't use an ac then either.

No, it's 5 degrees here! Will this never end?

It got to 77 wonderful degrees here Saturday. That sure isn't air conditioner weather for me. Now we are dropping back down into the 50's for highs with rain. When it gets into the 90's, then we will use the air.

Front came thru and it was 49 when I woke up.

Sun shining thru the clouds and 53.

Much different to Saturday, when it was a beautiful spring day.

58 currently here in North Houston. I can not sleep if it is at all warm or humid which is why I have lots of fans and an ac in the bedroom. Last night it sure helped. Today it is much cooler but we have lots of overcast clouds and it is very windy.

Glenda, when I got up this morning it was 1, yes o-n-e, miserable degree here in beautiful downtown Larimore.

I still have snow covering 75% of the backyard; there's an ice lake on the other 25% from a bit of thawing we experienced. The south yard is 1-2-ft deep all over and the front yard is half snow and half frozen melt along the deck and around the front deck.

Enjoy the A/C! I'll do cartwheels when it reaches 70 here...in say June. Of course, if it gets over 72 I'll be moaning and groaning about the heat. 70 is ideal for me. As long as it's not too humid! LOL
