Found out the effects of direct sunshine heating honestly quick
Living in the north all my life didn’t leave me with much experience with how to properly air condition a house.
That’s because where I grew up, unless I put in a window cooling system in the apartment, there is no Heating and Air Conditioning cooling. Growing up in a northern city, there wasn’t exactly a good need for a/c. But when you didn’t have it, that’s when you really, honestly wanted it. However, that added up to maybe 8 weeks out of the year. The rest of the Heating and Air Conditioning equation for us was the heating of the apartment. That was no problem as both of us had attractive radiant heat. So when both of us moved to the south, both of us got a crash course in Heating and Air Conditioning cooling. The beach house both of us bought was the first time both of us lived in a beach house and the first a single both of us owned. On top of that, both of us lived out in a rural setting with no neighbors close by. So both of us left the window shades and drapes open all the time. Well, I found out quick that this is a recipe for an Heating and Air Conditioning cooling bill that will absolutely blow your mind. I thought the a/c was a bit valuable in the Spring really. But after that first week of summer, I honestly got a taste. All of us swiftly figured out that both of us had to close a lot of shades in the beach house to stop the direct sunshine heating from raising the temperature of the ambient air. Once both of us did that and got a bit more control of some thermostat setting parameters, both of us got our Heating and Air Conditioning cooling bill to a easily sustainable level.
