It got up to 90 degrees here today and it got me to thinking that in a couple of months we'll probably be turning on the AC. We're always the LAST in the neighborhood to turn ours on, and ours is always the highest at 79-80, not by choice though. How about everyone else? When do you usually get your air conditioner going in summer?

Re: When do you turn on the AC?
It all depends. We live upstairs so it's always warmer to begin with when the weather gets warmer. Definitely by July if not before.

Re: When do you turn on the AC?
we have an air conditioner but it's portable and we only use it one or two days a year, when it's above 90 for a couple days or so.

I only turn on the central air when it gets over probably 88.

Re: When do you turn on the AC?
When it gets unbearable. If it's hot outside but the fan and the ceiling fan is doing a decent job.....I'll get through it. Ever since my mother started making me pay the electric bill around the last year and a half I was living with her, I've been mindful of using and wasting electricity. I definitely conserve it a lot more. So when it's just too damn hot and I'm not comfortable, I'll turn it on. Usually around mid-July.

For the most part I never turn on the a/c before the month of June.

Re: When do you turn on the AC?
Sometimes in May I have to turn it on just to sleep at night. Usually I have it running in late June through September when its the hottest here.

It needs to be above eighty degrees before I start messing around the air. Before that point, I will just use my fans.

Re: When do you turn on the AC?
I turn my A/C on each day when I get home.
Sometimes in the winter I can get away with just opening the window or running the fan or just turn on the A/C to sleep at nite, but in the summer as soon as I hit the door in the evening I turn it on.
Actually, I am in Missouri at the moment and the weather is jumping all over the place. On the 6th when I got here it was in the 60s but yesterday it was in the 80s and we turned on the A/C. Gonna be hot today but back in the 60s on Monday.

Re: When do you turn on the AC?
We don't really have spring here. It's cold until June, and then it's 100 degrees all of a sudden and stays that way until September. I'm exaggerating, of course, but you get my drift.
Usually the A/C will come on in June. We adjust it accordingly, daily.
