revkevsdi Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 Me. We open the windows at night and close them during the day. When it gets hot we turn on the furnace fan to bring the basement cold up. I’d rather do that than be the type of people that keep it colder in the summer than it is in the winter. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GGNHL Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 We have an old A/C unit my parents got rid of when they got heat pumps cause I'm too cheap to buy a new one. At the new house have yet to put it in cause we have so many windows that we can manage to cool the house off quickly at night so far.

Woodtick Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 Window units are the way to go, if you only need ac a few weeks a year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokin george Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 No a.c. here and the house is still cool. We have 2 ceiling fans in the bdrm on, living room fan on and the HRV on . We have a portable ac unit for the bdrm but haven't brought it out of the basement yet. The stamped concrete floor helps keeping the house cool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XCR1250 Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 I'm somewhat allergic to AC, makes me sneeze and runny nose, I have a large basement fan, 36" that when real hot/muggy I simply blow the cooler basement air up the steps to the kitchen and a smaller fan in the kitchen to blow it into the rest of the home.

These work well for pulling the air out of the basement to the first floor like you are doing. They are great for houses that have wood burners in the base ment. The fan can be reversed for different applications. https://www.hvacquick.com/products.php/residential/AirFlow-Boosting/Room-to-Room-and-Register-Boosters/Tjernlund-AireShare-Level-to-Level-Ventilator?gclid=EAIaIQobChMItvH45rr72wIViEBpCh20tAgsEAkYAiABEgKMY_D_BwE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
