:-(

get a window mounted one and open a different window
These things hang out the windows because they output an insane amount of heat, putting the heat in your house and then radiating it through a radiator and out some thin cloth pipes isn't the most effective solution

My problem is where I live is shitty and I only have on Window (and one room + bathroom)

I don't have another window to open

>it's getting warm
In australia, africa and latin america maybe.
Do you live there?

i live underground, cool in the summer time, stays warm in the winter. only downside is the lack of windows.

anything above 25c is unbearable.

its -16 and 15cm snow outside desu

Window units are small "split" air-conditioners, the airflows for the condenser and the room are split.

Those mobile units generally cause under-pressure in your room, pulling in hot air from outside the room. Unless you mod them.

Anything over 20c is unbearable, the fuck you on?

more like anything under 27C is unbearable. its around 20C here and I have heat on

> there is still a hose that needs to go out the window.

The heat has to go somewhere, apart from out of the window there is only one alternative really. Down the drain.

Mains water cooled air conditioners actually exist, dunno what they cost though.

I go elsewhere. Plenty of places are chilled comfortably. God bless laptops.

Commiefornia here, its 34 degrees here. Where the fuck do you live that its hot?

How do I design my home so it has a badass programmable HVAC system?

Programmable means I can integrate it with whatever home automation solution I choose or come up with by myself.

Even if it doesn't get terribly hot, warm + humid = death. That's really where AC shines.

You don't need to do anything fancy. Modern HVAC systems terminate at electronic thermostats via a few bog standard copper wires. All the thermostat does is apply the necessary voltage to the appropriate terminal/wire when it needs to turn on the fan and furnace/AC unit. You can program your device to apply that same output at a pin. Then trigger that however you wish. This is really a cakewalk.

Cool so it's really simple electronics. One of my split ACs is fucking up and I might have to replace it; guess I'll experiment with the old hardware.

I fucking hate how the AC suddenly stops the fan and cooling when the temperature becomes nice. It's like it's idling, waiting for the temps to go up again before working. I dug up a manual and read there was a "test" switch that forced it to work continuously.

Anyway I'd really like it if these things were part of the building structure. Huge buildings can do it why not my house
