<div dir="ltr">I live in San Antonio so we don't have much need for heat, but without AC it is near impossible to work in the heat and humidity - especially as I get older. The only issue I have found about trying to do a big and rapid drop in temp, is when the humidity is fairly high, I can freeze up the coils faster than I can defrost them. Slow increments seems to help reduce the issues with freezing up the coils to the point of inoperative AC. Not sure if that helps, but that is my experience here.<div><br></div><div>Roy</div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Jul 12, 2018 at 1:05 PM, Chuck Steger via Woodworkers <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:woodworkers@lists.sawdusters.org" target="_blank">woodworkers@lists.sawdusters.org</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div lang="EN-US" link="blue" vlink="purple"><div class="m_-745943438572309892WordSection1"><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">For those of you with climate controlled shops, I’m curious on what you leave the temperature at when you are out of the shop? I leave mine at 80 degrees in the summer and 50 degrees in the winter. I figure those temps won’t ruin any finish or glue. If I’m in the middle of a glue-up or finishing, I’ll leave the temperature around 70 until complete.<u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif""><u></u> <u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">For those of you with HVAC knowledge …. I always bring the temperature up or down in 3 degree increments. In other words, I’ll go out in the morning and bring it from 80 to 77, then when at 77 I’ll take it to 74, etc. Same with bringing the temperature up. Not sure why I do this. I guess I’m basing it on when I had a heat pump, you would not want a drastic change or the emergency strips (electric strips) would come on. I do not have a heat pump (gas furnace and regular AC) so is this faulty logic? Should I just go straight to 70 in either direction? Any advantage to a slow clime or descent?<u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif""><u></u> <u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:20.0pt;font-family:"Brush Script MT"">Chuck<u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:20.0pt;font-family:"Brush Script MT"">Cave Springs, AR<u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p></div></div><br>______________________________<wbr>_________________<br>
