Now that we’ve had our first taste of summer (in [cuss]ing early May, mind you) I can report back that the new house should work out okay for the hot weather. We got into the vicinity of 90F according to the outside sensor and the HVAC was able to keep even the west-facing upstairs office space with the powerful heater (aka “my computer”) quite bearable.

Given that this was one of my biggest worries moving into this place, I am quite relieved. Of course all bets are off once we clear 100F, which is nigh-inevitable in this new modern era, but we’ll fight that battle when we come to it.
