[Humor alert] Last night, my husband and I discussed - for the zillionth time in twenty years - putting central AC in our 1907 house-with-radiators. (Twenty years ago, the estimate was $20,000. The technology has improved, so it's "cheaper" now.") Channelling various replies on this thread, I told him adding air was an "easy fix," that it was intellectually lazy of us to continue naysaying the idea, and that we just needed to think outside of the box - including perhaps demolishing the house and rebuilding to make the whole joint more efficient. I said all this with a straight face. He looked at me like I was from Mars (where, actually, there is never need for AC). "Never mind," I muttered, as I turned on yet another fan. "I read it on my forum..." I think I will start using the expression, "My forum." It will save a lot of explaining. Have you looked at these AC Unitsyeah, household retrofits would be OTT pricey and probably not too pretty and they aren't going to get the bulk discount a school district can get and not as much government incentives.
