What is /g/'s preferred choice of technology to keep cool this summer?

>>105793206 (OP)
Opening a window for the night, keeping it closed during the day.

>>105793240
shouldn't it be the other way around

>>105793240
Yeah

>>105793244
Not while it's outside warmer than inside. You can open it at evening (for gusts of wind) or during rainfall.

>>105793240
>Have to keep it closed at night because I live right next to some commercial buildings that make a lot of noise
Fuck me.

It just werks

>>105793437
will we ever find a way not to make the tube be a fucking nuissance to setup every summer?

>>105793480
This window adapter was relatively easy and quick to set up. Before that I would cut holes in sheet if foam core and use it to cover window hole.

Why do glowies keep spamming threads about AC when basically everywhere on the planet has multiple types of air conditioners available, and the selection of one for a given space is mostly about the limitations of the space it will be deployed in rather than the average price point of a given type?

>>105793206 (OP)
Icecubes in the pooper

>>105793222
This meme makes no sense. Window units also have air filters. They both work exactly the same, the split units are just better separated so you get more efficiency and less noise. Mini splits can also provide heat in winter (down to a certain temperature) more efficiently than electric baseboards. They're way more expensive though and a window unit will get the job done for 1/4 of the price, although it'll be less convenient.

>>105793657
>Window units also have air filters.
No they do not.

>>105793206 (OP)
Mini splits seem like a lot of work, hardware, and cost to cool just ONE room
Maybe if you lived in a big studio apartment or something
Otherwise, either window units or central AC makes more sense.

>>105793891
Yes they do you retarded nigger

>>105793918
Point out where the filter is.

>>105793206 (OP)
Picrel, except I have a Daikin Sensira.

>>105793891
You are a retarded amerifat. Windows ACs have filters as well. You probably never seen it or cleaned it just like your penis.

open the windows

nah

>>105793950
lol
LMAO
Fucking retard

>>105794008
No need to clean it anon we get our dicks flayed at birth.
I hope our superiority doesn't lead to more controversy.

>>105793240
American cardboard homes don't have any insulation.

>>105793296
Earplugs, dude. You'll sleep like a log.

>>105793950
This is why american AC units have a reputation for being janky. They worked fine when built, but americans literally do not know how to maintain their machinery.

>>105793619
this is actually a real first aid tactic. people who get heat stroke are sometimes given ice cold fluids by the ass because your buttmeats both absorb fluids very well and it's the only orifice you have that isn't designed to be mostly temperature-resistant on the inside (and less importantly won't cause you to die by filling it with water)

These threads always make me laugh because I live in a hot place yet never think about temperature because inside my home it's the same temperature year round.

>>105793480
what if we made the air conditioner itself fit into the window and you can just leave it there all the time

>>105793240
this works quite well especially with the fan trick, but you have to do it when ambient is the coldest (which is usually right before dawn). and if you live in a humid climate it never gets cool lmao

nudism

blue borard anon

>>105794758
literally the only thing wrong with this is riding the wall. If it was just two bends it would be completely fine, and maybe even a little bit beautiful in its own way.

>>105793891
they do, you're a fucking dumb faggot

>>105793437
these things are so loud

>>105794356
So you are jewish and amerifat at the same time. You indeed deserve a bullet in your head.

>>105794031
I keep getting swarms of stinkbugs through mine.

>>105797498
I cover mine with cheap mosquito mesh that I buy for $4 from amazon. Cut them to size and secure the sides. Fixed the stink bug problem. But tiny insects still get through I guess.

>>105793437
not really. having the condenser inside is retarded, but you at least need both the exhaust and intake outside. otherwise the condenser input air comes through the house from outside.

>>105794329
Hand of Poo

So how are these ACs with air hoses?
Can't really install a mini split here.

>>105798889
Yeah, I have two pipes.

I like indoor pools, not outdoor pools.

>buttchugging is first aid

Nice try.

Minisplits are the de facto cooling devices in my country.
They're great until you have to fix them.

>>105794758
i really hate this. idk why they cant hide it inside the walls.

>>105794758
At least yours have the cover on

I just have a shitty tower fan

europoors have more death from heat than our gun deaths (most of those from certain demographics)

>>105799335
it looks like they're maybe a foot away from eachother

>>105800117
Because I am inside the walls

>>105793206 (OP)
I live inawoods in a van down by the river. I have to run on solar, and lithium batteries when theres no sun, so the mini split is the only way. its been like 103f over the last week, and the system is working great.

>>105793437
Nice fucking blind

I got one of these last year. Quieter than the fan I used to have in the window.

>>105801620
What model is this? I'm europoor so an less expensive split system to run is very appealing to me as we pay out the ass for electricity

>>105793206 (OP)
This in my fucking face. Until it gets hot enough that even that no longer helps, then I try the ice bowl trick which makes it feels like my guts are freezing and I die.
It's also the only thing that makes me miss wearing glasses, because I don't recall them getting so dry from it before I got lasik.
