Rarely. It happens when the grid is stressed during heat waves or during maintenance. One time it went down during a storm, but I live in an area that doesn't normally get severe weather. I admit that I'm not used to power outages. The longest I've been without it was 17 hours.

@Miram It's remarkable how little AC technology has changed since it was invented. Air conditioners are still inefficient, noisy, power-draining devices. There has to be some better cooling tech out there!
