How did people ever live without a/c?
I really don’t know how we did it..I slept on a screened in porch when I was a child...later on we had water cooled fans in the window...I went through college with no A/C.
Our first house after we married had my first central A/C.
Window units were used in our rental home...My mother and dad had an older home and used window units...but this was after I had married. Our first car did not have A/C. We came back to Texas from the Navy, San Diego and soon got a car with A/C!
