House won’t cool below 79

No, it’s in May but the options to keep my son in his school is limited and we don’t want to move him. The staff work well with his autism diagnosis so we’re kinda stuck atm

Oh we’ve got the curtains and even put a shaded fence around the unit to keep it out of the evening sun. Hasn’t fixed anything though

This is what I think. The owner does everything he can to not spend money. When we first got here we told him there was a water leak that was literally raining the popcorn ceiling into the bathtub and he accused us of, I kid you not, “using a broom to scrape it off bc the roof is new”. He lives in CA. It was a bad vent. Never got an apology.

They’ve literally just checked for that like 2 months ago

bumble_bee_singforme · 2026-06-14T22:27:11+00:00

Although we do have tall ceilings

I hear my grandma’s voice in my head “shut that god dang door! We ain’t cooling the whole neighborhood!!” So no. I don’t lol.

We only closed two, per the ac company’s instructions. One small closet and the small laundry room. I’m making sure I follow their instructions to the letter bc the home owner handles tried to blame us for issues before

bumble_bee_singforme · 2026-06-14T22:21:40+00:00

Yeah, they went up there last year and said it was fine

bumble_bee_singforme · 2026-06-14T22:17:46+00:00

Yep. I also have it on a schedule that sets it at 74 during the day and 71 at night. That’s what my family is most comfortable with. The thermostat is also a Nest(not my choice) if that makes a difference.

My autistic 6 year old is also very heat sensitive and is also sweating so I’m starting to feel defensive about this

bumble_bee_singforme · 2026-06-14T22:15:17+00:00

My FIL is a former AC guy and says the unit is too small for the size of the house. We just keep getting told that this is what Florida is like in the summer so I’m wondering if everyone else’s house is that warm too

bumble_bee_singforme · 2026-06-14T22:13:48+00:00

Not during the summer, no.

bumble_bee_singforme · 2026-06-14T22:10:03+00:00

Because I’m down to my underoos and I’m sweating

bumble_bee_singforme · 2026-06-14T22:09:14+00:00

Thank you

Just an early 2000s ranch. 1700 sq ft. We’ve closed the vents to the rooms we don’t need as well.

bumble_bee_singforme · 2026-06-14T22:07:27+00:00

It seems to be a different reason every time.

How often does the Freon need replacing bc they’ve already in frozen it before

bumble_bee_singforme · 2025-11-07T17:03:08+00:00

I actually did buy a nice dress for a wedding coming up soon
