How hot should it be before turning the AC on?
Over the last three weeks, we have had six days in the nineties. The humidity was low, so my partner didn’t think it was necessary to turn on the air conditioning. I told him I couldn’t survive in the house if the AC wasn’t turned on. After being told I should quit complaining, I had enough. He told me the weather forecaster said he didn’t have his air conditioning on. He had window air conditioning units and wasn’t planning on installing the AC units until it got into the mid-nineties and not just kissing them. I couldn’t believe he was talking about the weather forecaster and not worrying about my comfort. I called in to the news station and asked how hot it had to be before turning the air conditioning on. The person who answered the phone thought I was joking, but I assured her I was not. She told me it was personal choice. Some people turned their air conditioning on a certain date, while others go by temperatures. She told me if there was a problem with our air conditioning, I should call the HVAC company. I told her about my partner going by what their weather forecaster said, and he didn’t think we needed air conditioning yet. She laughed. I couldn’t believe she laughed. I called the HVAC company and asked them to come in and turn on the air conditioning unit. I didn’t know how to turn it on, and I didn’t care what it cost. I would deal with my partner when he got home, and if he got too angry, I would move back with my parents.
