[SunRescue] Cooling

[Ken Hansen]

I think the real key is circulation - if the air around the
equipment is warm, the equipment will only warm it up even more.
By moving the air around, you stand a fair chance of keeping
things cool/cooler.

BTW Basements are great places for such "activities" - assuming
your is cool and dry. Of course, some regions are
"basement-imparied" since, I guess, the ground is too hard to
dig???

I have similar problems, I have installed a ceiling fan to
increase the
general circulation, in the room, and I have a sliding glass
door so I
crack that and it seems to work fine that way.  The only problem
is when it
gets summer down here (in Florida), my crappola AC unit does not
keep that
room cool enough, so I am reduced to just trying to keep the
room as cool
as possible with the ceiling fan.
