minus-squaretobogganablaze@lemmus.orglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up9arrow-down1·13 days agoIf you’re running an AC and the room is still at 24°C+ I would say it’s not working.
minus-squarestephen01king@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4arrow-down5·13 days agoIf the AC was set to 26 °C, you’re expecting the temp to be below 24 °C? What are you even talking about?
minus-squarems.lane@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·13 days agoYou’re not wrong, but if you’re setting to 26c and still need a fan, you should just set it lower. I personally run 27c in summer and don’t need an additional fan.
minus-squarestephen01king@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·13 days agoYeah, but we’re talking about an underfloor cooling system here. They don’t really have a way to distribute the cold air like air-conditioning systems do. So in the Olympic village’s case, a fan should be needed.
