Ryan314 Posted August 3, 2006 CID Share Posted August 3, 2006 Okay so over the last week my room has been unusually hot... even with my wall fixed a/c running.. My mother thought it was my a/c and we took a window unit and put it in my room.. it has been running for over an hour now and its still just as hot as it was... there is no way that two a/c's stopped working ... a little later my mother and i were trying to figure out why in the heck my room wasnt cooling off.. she is INSISTING its my computer that is heating the room.. ( i have two) so i turn one off and its been off for a while now.. still hot.. shes still insisting its my main computer... I DONT THINK SO! what do you all think?

amc11890 Posted August 3, 2006 CID Share Posted August 3, 2006 i have the same problem during the day. I usually have two computers running and a tv and whew it gets hot in there. Its upstairs so heat rises. I always have my celing fan on full blast but it still stays hot. And with temperatures usually in the 90's and friggin 100% humidity it is unbearable at times.

Blunted 2 Posted August 3, 2006 CID Share Posted August 3, 2006 my game room has alot of eletronics in there and in the winter the room doesnt need heat so yea it can do alot depending on what you have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest PeePs Posted August 3, 2006 CID Share Posted August 3, 2006 Yeah, I'm pretty sure its your computer. My room can go so hot because of my computer its ridiculous. My room is pretty small so it heats up easily, plus I run games on my computer a lot so it heats that up quite a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tommie gorman Posted August 3, 2006 CID Share Posted August 3, 2006 This is a little more on the construction side, but how well insulated is your attic? ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blunted 2 Posted August 3, 2006 CID Share Posted August 3, 2006 well you have to also remember the power companies are cutting back on power cause people are using too much so your AC's dont work as well as they should. thats whats happening in NYC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommie gorman Posted August 3, 2006 CID Share Posted August 3, 2006 Luckily as of yet we have had no electric shortages like that in the midwest. But we do have water shortages. No lawn watering and such. Which is fine with me, less mowing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
