[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here, thanks everyone. Unfortuantely we don't have ceiling fans, though I can see why they'd be helpful. I think another issue is that the vents are in the floor, so I have a feeling the cool air is not getting up into the room very far. The house was renovated prior to us moving in, so we don't have a lot of history regarding how or why they did certain things. [/quote]

NP here.

OP, I had ceiling fans installed for like $200/fan (including the fans, I bought them on sale at Home Depot).

I'd also look into mini splits, which are a great alternative. Ultimately, though, the cheapest and best for the environment would be to rebalance your vents and to install ceiling fans. It was 79 in our house last night (thanks, summer-like weather and tons of pollen so we couldn't open windows!), and the ceiling fan made me so cool I had to cover up with my blanket.[/quote]

NP here, with similar problem as OP's.  What do you mean by rebalance your vents?[/quote]
