It hasn't been hot here in Vancouver, although my chiller has been running with the lights off and on even in the evening when the lights are off, at 1130 pm my house was still sitting at 21c. I would be nice to go for an AC unit over a chiller although that costs more on electricity because cooling a house is larger than a tank. I don't mind the warm weather as we only enjoy it for a few months out of the year here in rainy Vancouver. I run my lights on a semi reverse cycle, they come on at 3pm because I get to enjoy my tank when I get home from work and most times am up late so I can enjoy my tank till 330am.... When I am home in the evenings I will open the windows for free cooling and a nice cool night breeze. To be honest I would get a chiller rather than an AC, but then again it's all personal preference!
