…can be downright expensive! How people existed in the South prior to air conditioning is beyond my comprehension. Between the heat and the humidity it’s oppressive. I call it 95/95 – that’s 95 degrees and 95% humidity. How did people sleep?
Within the last 30 days I’ve had to replace the AC systems in my Yukon and my house – that’s dangerously close to $10k just to be able to breathe and function. Here’s the real puzzler: the hardware required to heat and cool the house ran me $4.40 per square foot, is possibly a tax deduction, and has a 10 year warranty. The Yukon, which has 130,000 miles on the books, cost me $107 per square foot and that’s cooling only with a 1 year warranty.
There is no justice

You have my sympathies that these systems had to be replaced in the peak season of overcharging. I do hope that the repairmen were a little less truculent than the last with whom you had to deal.
However, it’s nice to be able to breathe in comfort in the HHH days. Living in a city on the north shore of that big puddle of humid air known as Lake Ontario, I well understand A/C being a necessity.
