But, I'm hot!

I am amazed there are still people who don’t understand how thermostats and air conditioning work.

If the unit is running, setting it colder isn’t going to make you colder any faster. In fact, in an older house, if it’s 102 degrees outside, the unit will likely never achieve 72 degrees inside. A pro will tell you, a twenty degree difference is what it’s designed for.

Yet, that doesn’t stop people from cranking it down when they’re hot. And burning up/freezing up the unit. Not to mention the electric bill.

Sometimes, I just can’t with people.
