For everyone still considering whether to install some form of cooling, I would say YES!
Today it’s almost 40°C (104°F) outside. Phew! Luckily, back then we opted for "cooling yes or no?" and chose yes.

Our cooling runs very energy-efficiently through our ground source heat pump in the floor (the cold is basically just pumped upwards). We have a comfortable 22.1°C (72°F) in the rooms.

Honestly, this climate change is really annoying me. If anyone has a plot of land to sell cheaply at the North Cape, please get in touch.

It seems the heating computer is running at the office.

I usually wake up around 4 a.m., and it’s cool then; from 7 a.m. onwards, it’s different. The windows must be closed and the ventilation off.


Indeed, there is a computer running... but today it’s only on standby, consuming about 60 watts. All of that energy is converted 100% into heat, no doubt. However, there are no people present to compensate. As mentioned, we’re talking about temperatures in an occupied house, including people, cooking, electrical appliances, etc.

Now in the news ticker: "Rail passengers can reschedule their trip for free due to heat"... well, serves them right if they take advantage of such a great offer.

Ah yes, the air conditioning doesn’t always work properly.

Just don’t rely on it when you really need it.

Do they provide cool water or relocate people?
