You guys can control the temperature in the summer?
Right? I'm over here looking at my thermostat set to Off.
Username checks out.
Tried to set ours here to around 20°C (~70°F), but it barely even reaches 23°C (~74°F) even in the middle of the night. I still consider myself lucky being able to run the AC for most of the day though, so I'm not complaining.
They never seem to be very accurate even if it thinks it's reached 20c
Even more so since my AC's thermostat is located just inside the air intake. Perhaps it registers a far lower temperature than the rest of the room. It's easily compensated though by setting the thermostat lower than the target ambient temperature (here, it's 25°C or 77°F), I guess.
In australia reverse cycle ac is very common, so we keep ours set to ~24°C year round.
