[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The REASON the room is hot is because the roof is not adequately insulated. Insulate the roof and you'll have a cooler room and not need to spend a ton on electricity getting it cooler all the time.[/quote] We have a bungalow with the master in the attic, which we refinished to add spray foam insulation before we moved in. We STILL have the problem that in order to cool the upstairs to 76 degrees, the downstairs gets way too cold. I honestly don't know how they survived in that attic bedroom with the old paper insulation that was in there (and largely decayed). We have thought about a mini split, but haven't pursued it yet. For now we keep arguing over the A/C setting all summer (I hate the heat, DH hates the cold)...[/quote]
