I can afford air conditioning

"No pleasure, no rapture, no exquisite sin greater; than central air." -- Azrael, "Dogma" by Kevin Smith.

We live in a more temperate place, but with the summers going increasingly more smoky and hotter - dry 49.6c temps caused our town of Lytton to burn to the ground - we took advantage of new, aggressive building code that stipulates one room must not get above 26c, and the cooling it mandates, to move to a new qualifying building.

The A/C units - even these lesser VRFs - are fantastic. Truly it changes the mood when I can work morning and night (WFHx2) without me or the nerd gear being too warm. It's worth this $4/sqft/mo price tag when the rent rebased.

I'm SO with you on this one.

Not even central A/C here. Just Split units on the bedrooms/home office -- But it already makes life so much more bearable
