cbear : Oh not at. In main part of house we have that huge picture window, and one in kitchen that allows us to look out at the sun, but the way house is situated (and the covered patio) we get no direct sun during heat of day…….only as sun is setting. That's a plus. The AC's aren't struggling to cool what the sun aint heating. These windows in the den area are amazing with solar screens. Plenty of light without the sun's awful heat. The sun room is encased in windows but we use black out curtains there in dead of summer. Two things I highly recommend - solar screens, dehumidifier.
Ruger5 : That surprises me because they look so dark from the street. Who did you use?
peppermintstick : I'm telling you...he doesn't use A/C! LOL!
cbear : I do. I guess my house is extremely efficient. If I had to use fans, a dehumidifier, and set my A/C in the 80s in order to still have a $350+ electric bill, I'd be ****.
WTF : Ours is 97 and had single pain windows. Then put in new double pane and our electric bill is $125 normally.. 1600 sq ft

WTF : I was just playing. No sane person would go without A/C unless they absolutely had to. Do you have any other tips for the rest of us to make our homes more energy efficient? I have alot of windows and I am considering solar screens. The pool is what sucks alot of juice.
WTF: 2 story? 2 ac's? What is ac set at? Pool?
Tinebee : Yes, 2-story, 3700 s.f. A/C is at 74, 2 units. No pool.
WTF : I figured it out....you have a couple of extension cords running from @sweetie's house secretly.

cbear : I don't have a pool. The maintenance is not worth it to me. I have LED light bulb in all fixtures. I don't constantly run my washer and dryer. My lights stay off unless I'm in that room. I leave the blinds close in the front of my house.

Tigerclown2023 : No, Ruger's house.
Electric bills Ugh. I got mine today. The billing cycle ended over a week ago and my bill was still $285.00 for a 2800 Sq ft house. 😬 AND we have decent rate! Almost afraid to open it next month!
