I try to leave ours off as much as possible.
Last week was the first we turned it on, we had 4 extra people in my 2 br condo and it was over 90 and super humid.
We have a thru the wall unit in the main room. It doesnt work very well, very old and inefficient. It gets turned on as a last resort, like if I might seriously scream if it doesnt feel cooler. I turn it off before we go to bed. It tends to get super hot later in the afternoon/evening, so if its on, its usually only on for 4-5 hrs.
One bedroom has a window unit, and it works pretty well, and is turned on only at night if necessary for kid to sleep comfortably.
My bedroom has a portable a/c dehumidifier that my husband sets at 17c. I just checked and that means 62f which is absurd, imho. I try to move it up to 20c (I guess I havent figured out how to switch the display to f) and sometimes husband doesnt notice, but that is still 68 which is still ridiculous. He likes it on most of the time, although, if it is not too bad out, he leaves it off. we do have fans/air circulators.
Im waiting to see how much effect one week of a/c usage affected our electric bill.
