When my husband and I were renting we had a terrible air conditioner.
I didn’t realize it at the time.
My husband was always complaining of being too hot. He used the overhead fans a lot and wore tank tops and his underwear. I had a pretty summer comforter that I used most of the year that was lightweight. I Was comfortable and happy in the apartment. When we moved to our own home, the air conditioner was much better. This unit actually was properly sized for the house and had gotten yearly AC maintenance. I never realized how bad our apartment AC was until my husband ran our home air conditioner. I also never noticed how cold my husband likes his living conditions. He runs the air conditioner 24/7 now. He doesn’t use overhead fans anymore and is happier. I am not as happy. I can’t use my pretty summer comforter anymore. I have to wear pants and a jacket inside my home now. Frequently the AC drives me outdoors. I will sit on my computer outside to work. I will choose to be in the hot sunshine rather than my shaded home. I have tried to talk to my husband about a temperature setting we could both enjoy. He has gone so long without quality AC that he is unwilling to compromise. So for now I am going to suffer. I won’t last too long with this level of AC though. I need to be able to wear shorts in the summer if I want to.
