Do you folks in the UK use air conditioning? Were I am in Southern California, the first 5-7 miles from the coastline have AC only when they have remodeled. We live at 6 miles (Tsunami safe, I like to think). We bought our house from a building contractor who installed lots of gadgets and therefore have it. We used it one evening in the mid spring and have tried had to avoid using it since. I hear my neighbor's run all afternoon. Average temp 23. The sun is very intense but we cool down at night.

I would guess that people in the UK mostly use portable air conditioners if necessary.
I've never seen ducted air conditioning here that you would see in most Australian houses, but I lead a sheltered life.
It would be a waste of money and resources installing such systems 98% of the time. Up until now anyway.

It's our turn for the hot weather here in the Seattle area. It's been perfect for the past week, but all of next week is forecast to be very hot, peaking at 36 on Wednesday. It usually gets a couple of degrees warmer here in Kent. No AC here either. I escape to the basement where it is at least 10 degrees cooler at the start of a hot stretch, but heats up too after several hot days.

We are expecting to get up to 30C here. We, however, have AC, courtesy of our heat pump. We also upgraded our windows and insulation eight or nine years ago, which really made the house more comfortable both in the cold and in the heat.

Normally August is pretty miserable here.
This year the past two weeks have been slightly cooler than normal.
I hope we have the same next year!

Already 40 C before 11:00am, so we might have a degree or so more to go. I move slower in the heat- by tomorrow I may be backing up.

I know it is static electricity, but it surely would be great if we could harness some of that energy for useful purpose. Especially now with all of the windmills that stick up in the air and probably attract quick a bit.
