I have an insatiable thirst for the blood of russian children
I dont get it, why can't they install these and/or why don't they have AC??
>>537920340It's not allowed
>>537919365I love Central Air Conditioning.
>>537919365Love this little fella like you wouldn’t believe
>>537919932
>>537920340And pump illegal cold air into their place of residence? You madman!
>>537920340their hovels built in 1649 can't use them.
I get so used to the sound of my air conditioner that I need it to fall asleep it's such a good white noise
>>537920453>69nice
>>537919932Go to sleep Zelensky.
>>537919365Reminder to hit your buddy with the leaf blower now and then.
>>537919932well, everyone has to have their hobbies
>>537919932shut up faggot
I'm watching this thread naked with ice on my head and my eco-friendly 5V fan blowing semi-hot hair on my balls.
>>537919365Enjoy your legionella, faggot
>>537919365this isnt environmentally friendly. you're on the wrong side of history.
>>537920340I have a window one.
>>537919365God I hate these vibrating POS.
>>537920453That's like 20C, still too hot IMHO, kek.
>>537920340BIN THAT FUCKING AC
>>537924580
>>53791936That hum means victiory.
>>537924580Brexit is the gift that keeps on giving.
>>537919365I loved playing in the yard as a kid and hearing that kick on just knowing it was going to be a frosty evening with my vidya and snacks.
>>537919932jewish hands typed this post
There's a reason all those popular dystopian novels all originate from authors who lived in fucking England.
>>537924596>thousands to get it installedwhat? just get some foam and put it in a window
>>537920340no central air ducts and buildings that can't really have them so needs to be a split system
>>537920340Couple of reasons.1. Historically rather mild summers, so people said it's not worth it.2. Fucking Laws: Multiple owners have to agree in one party wants to istall an AC. It's also regulated how a house has to look like and AC would be "ugly". Even if it's your own house, you have to abide boomer laws that it looks "pretty" without an AC.3. We have massive houses that are optimized to contain the heat for winters. It would take much longer to cool the house down with an AC than it's the case with your card board houses.4. The myth that you get sick of AC.5. No political party has any ambitions to change that. Green fuckers argue with climate chage, boomers argue it makes your house ugly.It's fucked up. People want ACs but it's hopeless.
>>537919365imagine your next door neighbor putting one of those under your bedroom window because muh freedum. its why we have laws for this stuff in Europe
>>537919932who the fuck starts a conversation like that?
>>537920340They can't afford the electricity. If they had it, their power bill with be like 1000 euros.
>>537926078Usually they get put in the most vacant side of the house, particularly if it's north facing.
>>537926039>We have massive houses that are optimized to contain the heat for winters. It would take much longer to cool the house down with an AC than it's the case with your card board houses.Insulation works both ways retard.
>>537925950>air ductsWhat do you use for heat, a radiator or that electric shit you fucking turdy welfare kewwn?
>>537926097>They can't afford the electricityNot the reson.>>537926159Learn to fucking read. Cooling a cardboard house down is quick, cooling a heated up house down takes much longer. That's my point.
>>537926039>We have massive houses that are optimized to contain the heat for winters. It would take much longer to cool the house down with an AC than it's the case with your card board houses.That is the stupidest thing I ever heard, insulation only helps retain the interior temp, hot or cold. A beverage cooler can keep food hot or cold, the insulation only helps it resist the change compared to the temp in the atmosphere. Nigger learn thermodynamics.
>>537926209Guarantee that they are using a boiler which is probably not even turned off kn the summer
>>537926078imagine living so close to your neighbor where this is a problem
The sound of freedomAn absolutely intolerable 27c outside? Fuck that let the electric Hum of victory fly free and chill the air to 19c
>>537926248Then don't let it heat up, set your thermostat and don't touch it.
>>537926209hot water radiators from a boiler and piped around the house using small copper pipes which you can easily navigate around the solid brick interior walls and between floors etci posted in here about it...>>537917188>>537918571>>537919595its not as simple as bolting on an aircon to your existing system and using the existing vents to distribute, if it was it would be done
Imagine being uncomfortable in your own domicile... WOW!74 or 72 all day depending if I'm wearing pants or not.Raised it to 77 when I was away on vacation
>>537926248>Learn to fucking read. Cooling a cardboard house down is quick, cooling a heated up house down takes much longer. That's my point.Lol no, you are retarded. The thermal mass of your house would just stay cold longer without the a/c needing to reactivate. Your homes would stay cool more efficiently than ours. You are literally fucking retarded. Thermodynamics mother fucker do you speak it?
that'll be $300 in electricity costs, plus tip
>>537926313yes and we also have lots of apartment buildings in European cities. imagine your neighbor putting one of those next to your bedroom window. also america is barely bigger than Europe
>>537919365anyone have that pic of the Swedish guy wiping his sweat with a giant you know what
>>537926546split units exist and they install them just fine in Eastern Europe quit coping
Europeans got crap for brains
>>537926039I never want to hear Americans complaining about HOAs ever again because what the hell is going on in Europe
>>537926159There would be hot/cold insulation equivalence if he could paint his bricks white. But it sounds like his meddling neighbors won't allow that, so his brick house gets baked in the sun. It is obviously harder to cool a hot brick oven than a hot cardboard box.
This is now home automation thread. Behold my domain!
>>537926794nigger they do triple layer brick homes down in southern US states specifically to counter the heat you have no idea what you are talking aboutmore insulation only helps keep your house cool
We would all die in the south if we didnt have AC
>>53792045368 psshhh, what are you poor? Mine is set to FULL BLAST 24/7. My bill is literally like 2 grand + a month. I just cash out some BTC each month to pay it th0, that way im not working for it. People come into my house and are like "YOUR A MAD LAD! Its FREEZING in here!" Im like yeah well when I go for a run or mow the lawn theres nothing better then walking into a ice cold house and into an ICE cold shower.
>36C outside (96f)>19C inside (67f)based 5 ton unit
>>537926078I have 1 beneath my window outside right now and don't hear anything
>>537920453What?! And your fan is on AUTO?! What are you some kinda stale air enjoyer?! My fan literally never turns off, it is perpetually flowing the air 24/7, no one wants a stale air house.
remember to clean off your coils regularly and especially the inside of the actual HVAC unit because slime and other shit will build up inside and block the drain pipe, gotta blow that shit out. t. lives in the south and cleans out both once a year in the fall when it's cool and I can turn off the AC for a while to work on it
>>537920432lol where? maybe in eucuckdom, here i have 2
>>537924580I would civil war if that happened here.The british are such pussies. They are trying to make the region inhospitable for white people and more comfortable for sand niggers.
>>537927102lmao that's like living in a freezer. our summers aren't that hot anyway and Europeans are used to come up with ingenious ways to cool us down during a hot day in the city
>>537927402>Aren't that hot anywaysI swear I should start a eurocope folder from all the ridiculous posts I've seen this summer
I’m going to explain this in great detail once and then copy it into every single thread for as long as I live.a) Historical BackgroundCentral Europe (France, Germany, etc.) traditionally had no issues with extreme heat. Historical weather data shows how rarely maximum daily temperatures exceeded 30°C. In Germany, this figure used to be just 2–4 days per year. Today, that number has risen to 10–14 days. Historically, why should anyone have worried about 2–4 hot days a year? Why would you buy an air conditioner for just a few warm days?b) Architectural BackgroundBuildings in Central Europe were designed to retain heat. Thick stone and brick walls, once warmed up, help keep indoor temperatures stable. In summer (as has been the case for centuries), windows were simply left open at night. Even when daytime temperatures climbed above 28°C, nighttime temperatures usually dropped to between 14–18°C, which provided a natural and effective way to cool the building down.c) The Rapid Pace of Human-Caused Climate ChangeUntil just a few years ago, it was unimaginable that temperatures would consistently reach this high. When I was young, days above 30°C were still referred to as "scorching heat." Twenty years ago, we would get the day off from school whenever the thermometer tipped past 30°C. Now, 30°C has become the absolute norm for a Central European summer. The number of hot days has tripled or quadrupled in less than 50 years.d) Historic PreservationHistoric preservation in Europe is incredibly strict. Many buildings are hundreds of years old, and altering the facade to install AC split-units is generally prohibited. This challenge extends to modern rentals, because landlords are not legally mandated to install air conditioning units in new buildings.In short: It is a case of incredibly rapid climate development colliding with restrictive preservation laws and a deeply ingrained "we've always done it this way" mindset.t. civil-engineer
>>537920340my nigger, its only unbearably hot maybe 5 days a year. and even then, just point a fan at your balls and ur good
>>537919365>this confuses and enrages the yuropeean
>>537927501a little sweat is healthy for the immune system and there are always places in our cities where we can gather and cool off. its part of our European culture
>>537924596>>537925927If you are going to get a proper unit then make sure it's hidden.
>>537927402>>537927655Ragebait used to be believable
>>537926794Oh yeah let's paint the bricks white like every developer, so the house looks like shit, like little around it, and does NOTHING to help with heat. Why? Because, while you're imagining the brick "baking" in the sun, the fucking roof is always in the sun, and you white brick cucks USE BLACK SHINGLES. Oh, and go ahead and cut all the trees down to make the property value go *up* since people now dislike the associated tree maintenance cost. Please shut the fuck up!>>537926880You're full of shit, they do not do that, because 3/4 of your energy transfer is through your attic. Brick in the south, like many places in the US, like my house, is a siding material. It's not structural, and though it can aid in insulation, it's nickels and dimes compared to attic/roof/windows. Please show a development with triple layer bricks for insulation.
>>537927708it literally is that way tho. no idea why you are being ignorant on purpose
>>537919932I could go for some innocent kosovar serb childrens' blood right now
>>537927102>Runs for .2 picoseconds to cool your 3500 sqft 4bd 4ba>Oopsy, my compressor needs replaced every 5-7 years and I leak for half thatIn all seriousness, what's the size of the place and how many stages for the compressor?
>>537924596>>537924580The UK is a WEF cucked country. why do they hate their own people so much? White Anglo cops literally tasked with destroying their own race. Also notice how the women cops are all tasked with going after "mean posts online" and other ridiculous nonsense like that?
>>537919365That picture confuses and enrages me
>>537927194My air handler is in a closet in the hall, so it's kind of loud to have on all day. It worked in the 60s I suppose, but we have ceiling fans in every room (common in the south I think) to whip that nigger air up. I do use the nordic air pure carbon filters, which are excellent. When I throw my handler in the attic, I'll run the fan all day.
>>537927218>The actual HVAC unitYeah... I check my condenser coils every year, but they never get gross. The drain from the drip pan, on the other hand, is fuckin' blight town
>>537927903>AIsloppaAnother 2 degrees celsius added globally
>>537926039>>537926039"The myth that AC makes you sick"? Is that what you meant? Anyways the opposite is true. You will be more comfortable with AC thus lowering stress and inflammation. So AC actually makes you more healthy. I dont get it. Even in Minnesota we have A/C. So don't say "because of our climate"
>>537927561Wow, lotta cope for not doing it a way you've never done it before. A/c is nice, try it Hans. When you can.
>>537926546>The singular nation of America is barely bigger than all these nations combined

>>537919932how about you surrender and go to bed
>>537927958I don’t know that much about it.house is like 220sqft. Not an abnormal unit for texas. Every home I’ve had had the same.
>>537928298it might seem simple like whats the big deal but you have to understand that someone had to do the first step and claim and establish the public bathing or cool down spot. these guys are kind of heroes when you think about it
>>537927050new pasta just dropped
>>537919365~Fried Chicken, Beer and AC on a Friday Night~
>>537919365This scares and confuses the euromutt.
I remember americans complaining about the heat during summer every year during heatwaves.All of the sudden it never affected you because of ACs?Feels like a psyop
>>537928881>the overly detailed feetFeetfags have done irreparable damage to the AI algorithm
>>537928638Probably 2-3 tons then. Which is what mine is, for 2100 sqft (assume you meant 2200). Lil secret: we oversize here. There used to be an argument for why, but if you can go with a variable rate compressor, you can size much more specifically for a home.
>>537927561>human caused climate changeFuck off boosterboy
>>537929058that was global warming propaganda and fear mongering.

>>537929058I know this is 4chan and all, but some of us do have to go outside sometimes.
>>537927113Newer condensers are pretty quiet now and if installed right, really really quiet.

>be ashamed owner of 5 ton daikin AC and shitty midea reseller mini-split for backyard unit>5 ton AC fails to cool to set point (70000 BTU!) in an insulated house, runs all day>constant blower noises>uses like 7kw all day and runs up power bill>fucking midea trash mini split has a retarded inverter controller that can't decide whether it wants to run at 5% capacity or 110% capacity>thermostat secretly in Celsius so the Fahrenheit measurements just don't line up>doing anything in the backyard is niggerhell and needs to happen at 4 am>ameriniggers have giant lawns so I have to do yard work in this shitWhy can't it just be cold outside?
>>537929058liesliarlying
>>537928841lol im not joking though. I see your in France so what I said seems like some alternate universe to the world you live in. Like seriously though, how do you guys even sleep or stay alive over there with the heat and no AC? Do you just have to take cold showers non stop? But seriously, how do you sleep?
>>537929829That's grossly oversized then, for a single stage compressor condenser setup. what service did you have done?
>>537919365Kill that thing.

>>537929617This this, all of the aboveEVERYTHING needs to be a global!event now
It's 96 here, and I've got a weird L shape house with a 4/12 roof. Yet, at just about 3pm, my A/c has kicked off upon reaching 73°. 2.5 ton compressor, 18" fiberglass blown in in the attic, and it can be as cool as I'd like with ease. Brick and good windows don't hurt.
>>537919932And water is wet. What's your point?
oh and btw this is the A/C unit I have on my house: https://bakerhvac.com/hvac-products/heating-and-cooling/sl28xcv/?attribute_size=SL28XCV-060&srsltid=AfmBOoqzn8bJsEfVRbQi0Y4PaDFS-te59A2eW-C8iHbCmS_ZJQS9o2sMPGohttps://www.lennox.com/residential/products/heating-cooling/air-conditioners/sl28xcvI don't mess around. I just got it brand new this year and its marvelous. Its so quiet too.
>>537919365That's the sound of prosperity.
>>537929968I'm buying a house soon and I'm going to install proper split ACs if they're not already there. Right now I'm surviving with a single block. My workplace has central AC so I can sleep there peacefully.I damn every fucking retard who's against AC though.
>>537919365Fix your contact relay
>>53793033996? it's 103 here, and will get to about 106 today. june has been mild this year.
>>537930282>Historically mild
>>537930424central ducted split or mini split
>>537930459You live in Arizona or something?
>>537927050>68 psshhh, what are you poor? Mine is set to FULL BLAST 24/7. My bill is literally like 2 grand + a month. I just cash out some BTC each month to pay it th0, that way im not working for it. People come into my house and are like "YOUR A MAD LAD! Its FREEZING in here!" Im like yeah well when I go for a run or mow the lawn theres nothing better then walking into a ice cold house and into an ICE cold shower.>>537929968you can't do this, your coil will freeze up and then you won't have cold air anymore (unless you live somewhere with no humidity)t. florida man whose jobsite A/C froze up because we were doing exactly that
>>537928911kek
>>537930023It’s common here. Not sure if our setups are different, but they are residential units. Previous owners didn’t disclose a leak, so it was running all day and not keeping cool. frosting over on the condenser unit pipes. So knew it was low on refrigerant. It was in the evaporator coil. A non-repairable spot.14 year old unit and they’d have had to tear the ceiling to get a new one up there so he just threw in some stop leak. I’ll just replace it if I have to recharge again.
>>537930605you'll just reach the system limit and stay there thougheverbeit, ACs these days have thermal valves that stop coils from freezing from too little superheatmost of the time systems reach their limit around 55f/10c even if it's a cold climate heat pump in cool mode
>>537930523Probably a bunch of mini splits linked to a central outside unit.Houses here aren't built with ducting in mind and it'll be a mess.
>>537931282multi head minis are infuriating I hear, people have problems with the compressor control because almost all mini splits get their efficiency from having throttled compressors and each head asks for multiple different compressor speeds
>>537920340Cold air is illegal in the UK. There isn't even a loicense for it it's so illegal.You can thank Paris Climate Accords, and Kyoto Protocol.
You can't install AC without your neighbors permission. I printed out a large sheet of paper with a pic of an AC outdoor unit and glued it to my house wall. It's not even moving. It's just a picture. You can clearly see it's just a picture if you get close enough but from afar it looks somewhat real. My neighbors filed a noise complaint.
>>537930796>ACs these days have thermal valves that stop coils from freezingnot all of them, the units we were using were 1 year old.
What do you guys have yours set to? Mine is at 69 (nice).Very humid today, went to the zoo this morning and coming home to a cool, dry house was so refreshing.
>>537919365American superiority and energy bills win again.
Aircon buzzy box badHeatpump buzzy box good
>>537931976i set mine at 74 during the day and then when i go to bed i set it at 68 so for the first half hour or hour i am in bed it blasts cold air on me and i fall asleep
>>537932032someone who has been buggered for 4 years straight.
Americopers bullshitting as usual to distract from their dementia Pedo In Chief and losing against Iran. These things are happening at the local council level in London, AC is perfectly legal and the Government has reiterated this.
>>537932015A reversible heat pump would be pretty good in somewhere as mild as western Europe. Not really viable in places with real winters unless it is a ground source heat pump
>>537920453Based. I've got mine down to 42 degrees Fahrenheit right now. I'm trying to see if I can make my house below freezing. It's currently 89 degrees outside.
>>537919365I don't understand the jewishness of whats being done to europoors, if you don't have an AC here you'll literally die, doesn't even matter if you are inside the house.I remember last summer it was 45+ C and then it only dropped to 30C at 10pm and then stayed that hot till 6am and then the cycle repeatedit was fucked.
>>537930459I'm in the DFW area. It has been (characteristically) beautiful wet and cool. We're getting winds, bringing in warmer and slightly drier (though still humid for us) air for the week. We should see 100s by the weekend, which has been common in early May for the last 3 years. Goodness I love weather
>>537919932Shouldn’t drink orc-blood.
>>537927194fan on all the time will make the house warmer because it's circulating air through the attic ducts, which despite being insulated, get warm when the compressor is not running
>>537931945I thought ACs that low grade were illegal for having a SEER of 4
>>537926039>We have massive houses that are optimized to contain the heat for winters. It would take much longer to cool the house down with an AC than it's the case with your card board houses.You don't wait for the house to get hot before using AC. It is only the heat transfer rate that matters, not thermal mass.
>>537930749I'm also in Texas, reread my posts. Oversizing is common, if you're closer to the Gulf, that gross oversizing is more common. Like I joked about, they do leak for a while, and owners will refill and repair, but they never last like they would if properly sized single stage, or variable rate compressors. Running longer allows better dehumidification and lubrication for running parts. Possibly an argument for fewer cycles creating less wear. It's an industry, not everyone selling in it is selling the best. We're blessed to not need the best, because we can afford a big unit and the juice to power it. They thought like that in the 70s, and now those houses need upgrades and those cars are more costly. Consider a heat pump if you replace, they've come a long way from established brands.
>>537928881> my country has hit the wall, AC-supremacy and RanchDressing-supremacy will be my Cope

I can hear a cheap unit before I see one, people who cheap out on their condenser unit are retarded.Get a train
>>537932935aren't inverter compressors MORE complicated than a manual J-sized single stage?
I have two
>>537933092I think that's fair. In comparison, fuel injectors are more complicated than carburators, I would say. I service parts of my unit, but I have it serviced, too. That would continue with a more complicated system. I do think tooling remains the constraint for self service, not level of knowledge. Ain't rocket surgery, if you will.
>>537929395the two stage units suck they have like 40 parts rather than 8 and break all the time.
>>537932935in humid climates it's a bad idea to oversize because then the house doesn't get dehumidified. in dryer ones I imagine it doesn't matter so much.
>>537934671>>537932935Was this post too long for you?>>537934617Post a data source for the competitive failure rate. I think you're just inferring more bits=more breaks.
