Pete Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 Due to the natural randomness of the British summer the investment in home air conditioning is a bad idea....and yet the infrequent uncomfortably sticky nights lying bare bollock naked on the bed you scream out for some nice cold Mr Chilly cool air to circulate around you. It's too hot to sleep damn it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jezz Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 I bought an air cooler from homebase yesterday. £50. Last night was bliss! It draws the air off an ice pack and blows it out. Not as efficient as air con but does the trick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scoboblio Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 Hopefully the storms will come soon and cool it all down a bit Apparantly they'll be reaching my neck of the woods tomorrow. Quite a relief really, if you think it's hard sleeping now, imagine what it's like doing it during the day when it's 10+ degrees hotter, the sun's out and you can't open your windows because the noise of the kids on holiday will keep you awake Ahhh I love it really Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SupraStar 3000 Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 Just when you think it can't get any hotter my cat decides he wants to sleep on my bed with his collection of dead animals. The last two days I have had in my bedroom (I promise, this is no exaggeration):- 2x birds 1x woodpeaker 1x small frog 2x bats - same night 3x mice 2x unrecognizable - could be parts from the above Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlotte Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 Didn't find it too bad last night, was actually slightly cooler than the night before. Did wake up about 3am with a wet face thinking i'm really hot, turned out it was dribble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharpie Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 i need to get those air con units that are heaters in the winter aswell, too hot here I got one of these at the weekend 14,000 BTU air con I only noticed it had a heater in it too when I got it home. B&Q - Their range starts out at £131 for a 7000 BTU unit. £199 for a 9000 BTU - £249 for 12000 and £299 for the 14000 unit - Then you start getting into split units which, are not mobile.

edd_t Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 never thought about getting an aircon unit. last year i bought a ceiling fan from B&Q, cost about £180. does the job really well (in the room its in atleast) have hit my hand on it when changing a duvet cover though, that hurt!
