Re: Cooling A Room

So apparently after much debate with my father, my room is NOT the last in line for AC but our AC "equally vents to every room." That said, he told me it is the sun's fault and the people who built our house for putting the window where they did. After linking him to the websites with the 3M window screens as a permanent solution, he has agreed with me that that is the best solution to fix this problem. In the mean time, I was able to spend a good forty dollars today and make an awesome air conditioning unit out of my fan that actually works. Here are some pictures taken from my camera phone:






MATERIALS Purchased:
10' Soft Copper 1/4 OD
10' Vinyl Tubing 3/8 OD | 1/4 ID
6" Vinyl Tubing 1/2 OD | 3/8 ID
1 Mini Tabletop Pump (for small fountains)
500 Pack of Zip Ties

MATERIALS Savaged:
1 14" Diameter Standing Fan
1 Coleman Personal 16 Cooler

Facebook Album Link (A Facebook account is not necessary to view this album).

Peace.
Pavan.
