Would probably save 50% right off the bat if they have the air conditioning on then turn off the heating and vice versa.
😂👍
If the shops have to keep their doors closed, how can any customers come in? They might as well just shut down and go home.
More times than I can count.
Please come to Texas specificity the Gulf Coast in August , then stay inside in a home built with no AC, if the 95F and 90% humidity with a heat index in the 130s doesn’t cause heat stroke then the 24 hours of sweating and bugs are there for your enjoyment while you try to sleep. I laugh at Yankees telling people in the South we don’t need AC that’s the same as people in the soI th saying Yankees don’t need heaters in the winter time when it’s below zero outside. Put a coat on no one needs a furnace what Fing morons. We have had life threatening heat here in North Texas for weeks on end now. 109F and 40% humidity heat indexes in the 120s I know of at least ten deaths so far in DFW mostly people who live outside as homeless a good friend of mine is a trauma nurse at Parkland the regional indigent hospital and trauma center.
Mark Twain once asserted “The coldest winter I ever spent was a summer in San Francisco.”
Most people around here in the SF Bay Area near SF don’t have AC in their homes. Rarely gets above 100 degrees F. Rarely gets below 32 degrees F. When visiting our kids in Iowa or Texas we see the other temp extremes. Icicles hanging from home windows, or 110 degree heat. Don’t like the feeling of AC in a home and then going outside to blistering heat, but daughters’ families are used to it.
