I’ve got ceiling fans in 3 rooms & 3 other fans to use too. Also could go out to the sun room at night and sleep with the windows open if need be. If I couldn’t afford to get it replaced for awhile I’d buy a small window unit to use till I could. People were doing that in 2011 when we had a record-breaking hot summer. Walmart sold a bunch of small window units.

@Nimbus I have four fans in a studio unit apartnment, A small desk fan which has cone with me since I lived alone, a regulation ceiling fan, a twin fan which both exhales and intakes (or both together) and a pole fan which I hate and don't use since I got a neck sprain from a draft in the last heat wave from it. I have my windows open as often as I can, but they only crank so far.

@MaryJanine Wow, I would hate to see your electricity bill.

@Nimbus Would you like to pay it? Last month was $46.10. I am only responsible for my electric bill. The management pays heat and gas, taken from my rental bill. If I rent an A/C from them (which are always at a premium) there is an extra $50.00 a month tacked onto your rent payment.
