I live in a Spanish village and asking people to be quiet while they are partying is a lost cause.
It’s not absolutely running the a/c but the fan, that is what I do in the Winter time instead of running the heat. I like to sleep in a entirely frosty room so what I do is open all of the windows in the master study room and bathroom since the air handler is in the bathroom so the frosty air comes in and circulates throughout the house. I just run the fan since it is cheaper than the AC and the cool evening air cools myself and others down quite nicely. I don’t open the window in our study room at evening because the bar behind myself and others is really loud with partying monkees until about 2am. I put up a sound proof insulating foam contraption outside our study room window to block even more of the noise because it still makes its way through our double pane window and the sound of our a/c’s colorless noise. I also wear earplugs to cut out the noise and I have a small fan on our bed, which vibrates the bed and lulls myself and others to sleep. I live in a Spanish village and asking people to be quiet while they are partying is a lost cause. This is a party town with a lot of free spirits and I am a single of them. I need to scrub our ductwork this weekend because I have been sneezing a lot and suspect that they are filled with dust again. I need to buy a HEPA filter a single of these afternoons as soon as I measure the current a single.
