>> I'd say you want a north/south exposure. My house faces west and it's brutal in the summer!
@Love2Run: I agree with north/south, which is what we have. Â That setting summer sun is brutal around 4pm on the west side of the house, but the garage and one other room gets the brunt of it.
@SandyKnee: The sun sets on our driveway & kitchen/dinning rooms windows. It's horrible in the heat of the summer. The first couple of years in this house I pinned a towel to a curtain rod, the kind with rubber ends & in the afternoon we would put it up. I did break down & bought a shade for the window. It's a odd size window & I had a hard time finding one to fit & match the kitchen. The bad part is getting in the car at that time... so hot you can't even touch the steering wheel.
