Told you Id think of a dumb topic, Pink
Okay, so I will go first and I will refer to our new house that should be ready next week and not the apartment we are in now. I will also go back to childhood, Pink, and that part is for you
Our house has gas heating and central air. On its own it is cool! Our apartment is always hot, even in winter.
Ok, back to my childhood. I think my parents turned the heat low because I remember cuddling by the heating vents on the floor and my brother did it too.
My parents had a window air in their room. Otherwise there wasnt any. I suppose many didnt have air back then. My room to me felt like the sun. It was on the second floor which didnt help. Sometimes, when the heat kept me up at night, I filled a pail with cold water and threw it on my mattress. I probably got yelled at for that, but I cant remember if I did and I didnt care. I needed to sleep.
At sometime when I was in high school we did get central air. It was much better then. But it was not turned down too low so it was still warm. But it wasnt unbearable like I felt it had been before.
To this day I like it very cool when I sleep and heat will wake me up.
