No question here - just venting. My mother’s house is an oven, as she now thinks if she opens windows, people may climb in. We’re rural, isolated, houses 50’ apart, always home (6 of us), with big, alert dogs. Air conditioning units have new buttons to learn and we can’t guarantee she’d let it run. So we’re trying for central air conditioning. How dare we authorize people (who we know, fortunately) to enter her home? Because we’d rather she was angry than ill or dead from the heat. When we suggested a motorized awning over her deck it turned out to be the greatest thing ever. Let’s hope this goes as well. Braced for the worst, hoping for the best. Wish us luck!
Can you be in charge of the temperature & prevent her from fiddling if need be?
