We don't need a compass or cellphone out here. All we need to do is find the mountains.

Re: First world problems
No, it's my whole first floor that just gets cold with the A/C set at 69. I suppose my other first world problem is that the ceiling fan down there doesn't work for [expletive]. It seems to have two settings, slow and balls out wind tunnel.Arthur Dent wrote:Does the air conditioner vent blow directly (or nearly directly) on you? I've had something like this problem too and have had some luck pointing the vent away and running a ceiling fan to circulate the air temperatures in the room.stlouie_lipp wrote:I've been battling my air conditioner all summer. When I set it to 69 it rages on and on and it gets cold as hell. When I set it at 70 it gets real warm before it kick on.

Re: First world problems
In order for my A/C to get the house to 69 degrees, it would have to run 24 hours a day and my bill would be about $10,000.

Re: First world problems
Something is going on with my hot tub auto temperature thingy, and it's setting the water 2 degrees higher than the reading. I had it set at 102, but the water was being maintained at 104. My wife said it was too hot, so now I have to lower it to 100 so that the water will be maintained at 102.
The other problem: I like it at 104, my wife prefers 102.

I caught grief from my family for deciding to take a run to the gym last evening, amidst the disturbance at the nearby mall.
