Today might be the day, it's 26 inside the house and humidity is 60%. Yes/no?
I've had all windows open for the last 48 hours, no breeze doe.
In before hator/eddie/townhouse dwellers tell me how their house is at -9 right now because so well insulated.

Just do it. The savings of not putting the M on the road can be put towards the hydro bill to cool off you and wifey.
Gotta enjoy your $ somehow.

Wife is out of twon with 5 bg's, otherwise AC would've been on by now, this is the time to experiment.
I took a shower instead, I am cool now. Temp did go up by one degree to 27C now 
I am going to try a different technique doe, i recently installed a 150CFM Panasonic fan in my bathroom (baller) and turned on the furnace fan. If I can get humidity to drop under 50% i should be ok.

My fucking POS $249 Nest is a fucking paperweight.
It's currently reporting 25.5C, and 51% humidity ... That can't be right... ?!
And... it's been off for the past .. month or so...
Big ass fan in the bedroom all night long... FTW.
I got some kinda heat exchanger running 24/7 though...

I honestly cannot believe how cheap some of you (just Risky actually), are. Sacrificing comfort for a few bucks when you're not poor is pathetic.
Bro, it's hard enough as it is when you're trying to get by on Toronto's Mortgage.

Been set at 76 for quite some time now. If it's nice in the evening/overnight I'll shut it off and open the windows. but fuck being hot and sticky in your own house.

yea it's pretty hard. East part of house where bedrooms are generally runs hotter, west side of house has more mature trees over house that shade it. A bit of a cluster fuck.
Keep it at 25C right now, humidity is at 45%, it's pretty much as low as we need to go.

You can easily alter the flow a bit by capping off vents downstairs to get the upstairs a bit more cool air. I think I've only got two vents downstairs that are open. Ceiling fans also help a lot. All the vents in the basement are capped as well.

I've got a big hug for you man
When I first got my house I left all my shit open, I didn't even think about it. Until my mom was like why do you have all these vents open? :doh: I also close the return on the ground floor and only have the upstairs return open (so hopefully it's grabbing that warmer air)
Just trying to help Vas out.

I did the whole *closing vents* in my basement last year. The vents that blew in from the ceiling own (in basement) and were shut off, developed a shitload of condensation.

Still haven't turned on the A/C
Got a bit toasty last night.
Not by choice at this point, have a leak somewhere. Hopefully it's resolved this week.
Pretty manageable though, keep windows/blinds closed during the day. Only open at night. RH stayed less than 60% and it wasn't uncomfortable, kid was overheating a bit, but she needs to learn life under this roof won't be easy.

I think i am 0.5C away from a divorce: I keep telling her it's voluntary discomfort, it's good to practice this. I stand by it and will not back down. lol holy fuck. are you attempting to fix this refrigeration leak yourself or have you hired a professional?
This has been a DIY mission for a while, but we've reached the point of diminishing returns (actually we reached that before I even started this DIY).
The good thing is I found where the leak is, after pressurizing the system to 150 psi the coil is where the leak is at. Going to pay to have someone come in replace it, even though it's tempting to do myself now that it's cooling down.

yeah pretty fair that you get to work in an AC office environment during the day and your wife is stuck at home w/ a cranky hot baby.
I'll be sure to nominate you for the Dad / Husband of the Year.

I recommend just paying somebody, it is definitely not DIY. You need to braze the hi/lo pressure lines to the new coil, you need a vacuum pump to pump the lines down and then obviously a set of gauges to check the lines once it has been refilled with refrigerant. If however you do try and DIY this, please keep us updated with pics!

blah blah blah lol
all this talking about the baby and NO AC. What about countries who don't have AC....it's a NA thing...luxury...baby will be fine.
Now...is it a nice move since wifey is probably pissed off and looking after the baby the majority of the time...I'd say no but then again I don't have to live under the same roof so that's risky's move

The A coil is pretty old, not worth fixing. Losing about 40 psi of pressure over 48 hours, so pretty slow leak.
I can change it myself, but simply don't have the time right now so i will pay for someone to come in an get it done in a couple of hours.
