The heck with misters.. Outdoor AC.
I've been annoyed by the pool heat pump throwing 55degree air in the woods whilst I'm paying for near 10 tons of AC in the house. Time to make use of the cold air outside.
I've 25' of collapsible insulated flex duct and will get another 25'. I can reach my pool deck and one of my shops with it. Heck, I might as well take another 25' and make it where it can go the garage.
I'm thinking another 12" duct will reduce the back pressure a little more. It's takes about 5lbs to hold the box on top. It's made out of a $5 piece of that aluminized insulation foam board and Gorilla tape. I'll paint it and 3m 4200 the seams better.
Other use is I use it combined with my black flag fogger.

I did not read the story but if you take tax payers money maybe you should be held to some standards.-Cyclist

When I want this I can just turn the knob and cool when I want it.

Do you break out the electric blanket if the A/C gets too cold at night? :huh
My wife just bought a thick blanket for when it's too cold.
If it's too cold for me I go turn the thermostat up. If the pool is too cold I do the same.

I was trying to imagine a hot water heater with flexible hoses, on some sort of lift...that could be raised into the hot attic during summer, and lowered into an interior closet during the winter.
...so feel free to work on that...
Until CaptC left I wanted to get some truck radiators from him, put in the attic with a fan and use my 160 degree attic to heat the pool and cold pool water to cool the attic. I think chlorine would eat the radiators so then I'd need a heat exchanger outside and run coolant up. Ended up getting a deal on a bunch of solar water panels that I haven't hooked up yet so I don't need to do that.
Also my water heater had a heat exchanger with the 5 ton AC unit so I have free hot water anyway.

How is yours not hot?
No shade or enclosure over pool. 28/14 rectangle sitting east to west. While i wish it stayed cooler in July/August, it is warm early in the season and late into the fall, without a heater.
Enclosure has about a 50% reduction in light. Light=heat.
Same for ****.
