quote “It’s the scariest moment of the year for many homeowners – that first really hot day, usually in May, when we turn on our air conditioners for the first time since the previous summer and cross our fingers that it still works.”
WTH~!?~??
I run my AC 24/7 365
It is a 25 lb cylinder filled with ONLY 2.5 lbs of refrigerant.
It is a scam.
But their A/C will be running at full blast to keep the fop sweat in check.
Hey, no problemo. The globalist elites will still have all the gas, diesel and electrical energy they need to be comfortable while the rest of us Pelbes suffer, hopefully, in silence.
In Manassas, Virginia just 30 miles west of DC, they were building houses in the 60s without central air. They also used boilers and radiators for heating instead of a forced-air furnace, so there wasn’t even the possibility of adding central air later on without adding duct work after the house was built.
So clearly, the locals didn’t mind the lack of air conditioning.
And hydrogen works great for inflating party balloons.
Go along to get along.
Stop air conditioning ALL DC government buildings, now.
Sweat them out. Capitol went for decades without AC after all.
I’ve been in the San Fernando Valley many years ago and it was as hot as you describe.
Just even double that 12% humidity and that area would be all but uninhabitable.
It was the San Bernardino Valley. I was driving through there on the way to Camp Pendelton with my older brother.
Get mad at Sierra Club & Earth First also
Yes, it was worthless, swampy, disease-ridden land that neither Maryland or Virginia wanted. It was the perfect gift to the federal government. It really wasn’t habitable until vaccines, electricity, and AC were invented by evil, racist while men.
Leaks can be challenging, though.
Indeed. It made out-of-control, ever-expanding government possible.
Just had mine replaced. 14 G for furnace and A/C. It was going to cost a few grand to find the freon leak also the exchanger had a crack. We live in Cincinnati’s westside where the exchange rate is based on the value of catalytic converters. Add that to the SUV’s with subs and the firehouse nearby, we keep our windows closed and the AC on. It’s a necessity.
If it’s a leak big enough to be dangerous. .you’ll smell it.
Denser than air, it flows to the floor where it will make a BIG BOOM! Just light a match to go looking for the leak.
R-290
If you were to put a flame to the old r12 you would end up with mustard gas.
Well since you live in TX you have no other choice, but you can always move to Amarillo. They get snow there.
