Air Conditioning

[Flashy]

do you like your apartment/bedroom/to be super cold, cold, cool, warm etc?

i like my apartment to be relatively cool, but my bedroom must be even cooler.

i personally like a very cool bedroom,...but especially at night when i am sleeping...i like it almost super cold then...it is nice to be able to get under the warm covers.

i have always found that strange, however...very hot outside, very cold room, get under covers to be warm ...

ah well...you?

I can't sleep if it is hot. I sleep with a fan on low, circulating air most of the year and only use a sheet. Rem's side of the bed has multiple blankets, by contrast We found a good balance for both our comfort levels for temperature pretty early on, thankfully. I don't tend to like to actually have the air conditioning running while I try to sleep, but I'll let it run for 30-60 minutes before bed time in the summer. It's to noisy to go all night, at least this particular air conditioner.

About 60-65F works for me for sleeping. I'm much more flexible about temperature at other times, but overall prefer cooler than hotter.

Same for me. 65F/18C is ideal sleeping temperature for me. I have the AC going in the summer and a fan going in the winter. I like to keep air moving.

I the the winter, I have all the heating vents closed off in my room and the window cracked open, too. I keep the door closed so I don’t freeze out the rest of the house and raise the heating bill. If I get cold, I just pile on the blankets. It helps my migraines to have an icy room.

I used to like it freezing cold- so cold you have to piss. Back then you'd find me under 2 blankets the AC cranked up and loving it, or during the day, standing in front of the unit with my fingers going numb from the chill. I guess age or health (or those outrageous Con Ed bills) made me change. I first noticed this when on the phone a few summers back. I was dripping sweat and felt strangely comfortable.

I tend to run the AC a few hours here and there in the summer, when the temps climb over 80 or the indoor temp hits 90 (I have an eastern exposure and get the first heating beams of the day). At night in the summer, I use an oscillating fan, never sleep with the AC on these days.

I think I run a little hotter than average, as I'm always a little overheated. For that reason I like my place to be meat locker cold. Even with A/C on, I need a fan directly on me at night.

Hi I have almost the same problem, in the summer time in my workshop the temperature reaches 110 degrees on Faranheit.

Love it cold at night!!

 

[Countryguy63]

We would make very good roomates :biggrin1:

Do you spoon? :wink:


Seriously, what you described is very much like I keep my house. I'll even turn on the ceiling fan above my bed if it's not cool enough. I swear that I have gotten up and seen my breath in my room, lol

Yeah, I'm pretty much the same, much rather be on the cool side than uncomfortably warm. Unfortunately the majority of people in my office like the place definitely on the warm side... it was 82 frikkin degrees at work today... yecchh

I have tinnitus and insomnia, so I sleep with a box fan blaring on high blowing right on me... I've been sleeping like that since age 7.

I absolutely cannot go to sleep if I am too hot.

Doesn't everyone wanna be Flashy's roommate? An intellectual weed smoker who is simultaneously wealthy and keeps a cold apartment at night? The dream roommate! lol!!!!

im usually the overheated person in the room. hubby fixed the a/c a few days ago b/c spring warm weather was making it 80 degrees in the house. i like it between 65-70 in the house. at night a small fan on my nightstand is a must no matter the weather.

 

[nudeyorker]

This is a tough question for me because I had to have my arms twisted to install heating and air conditioning in Hawaii because both are so rarely needed if you have ceiling fans and cross ventilation. On the other hand during the hot humid days that are de rigueur during the summer in NY the air conditioning is a necessary luxury. But I typically close the vents in the bedroom at night and let the cool air waft in from the living room.

 

[conntom]

Just make it comfy. I don't like it too hot or too cold.

And...I just tested out the AC yesterday. It's working and ready for the season!!

Yea baby!

I like to be cool during the day and warmer at night *but not too warm*...sleeping without covers. I can't even wear socks to sleep in. Being furry and just warm enough to not use the blankets is a good thing!

 

[BigDallasDick8x6]

I have a house fan and a stone house so I can get away with opening the windows at night and sucking (so to speak) in the cool air and then shutting the windows in the morning and it stays cool all day. I can do this for a couple months in the Spring and a couple months in the Fall. In summer in Dallas of course the AC is on. I too like it almost cold in the bedroom at night and then get under warm cozy covers. The best sleep ever.

I love furry guys. I would keep you on the North side of the bed in the Winter so I'd stay warm!

Doesn't all of that muscle heat you up at night? It'd be like being wrapped in little ceramic heaters! I don't know how you stand it man...

I have insomnia and I have a funny thing developing which may be a very mild case of tinnitus.
In summer I have a fan and air conditioner going all the time.
I am one of the last people to remove their air conditioner in the fall.
I keep the window open at least a crack even on cold winter nights, and often the fan's on too.
Give me cold air and a warm comforter and it's zzzzzzzzzzz/

So that's why I like Flashy.
You hit four bases there, tripod.

I like it very cold, but I hate air conditioning. That's why I like the Northeast.

Wonder what Alaska's like this time of year?

I'm furry from all sides...most always just trim the back. NO shaving!
just back on up BDD

well I am a sweaty kinda guy when I get too hot. Partner and I just got a new Cal King mattress that has a memory foam top that is designed to keep you cooler. It's GREAT!!!
