[PARAPTOR]

Just to add to John's post, many a time our rigs are also sitting on hard surface slabs like concrete ensuring that we get heat from all around. This heat sink will continue to provide continued heat as the sun goes down. at least on my Raptor and I think on most TH that garage area is not a covered belly area. Basically the back side of the garage floor is the outside. So I think this is another reason that garage is harder to cool. The R rating of the floors in the other areas of my Raptor are in the high 30s.

My walls are R9 and ceiling if I recall in high 30s like maybe R39. think these R values help me survive with one AC.

Another big asset is my large paddle Fan, cooling the air is one thing moving it is another. My unit is white which again helps. As I stated in a previous post after examining and repairing all tapped interfaces in the AC system, I noticed a big difference. My registers are the type that shoot air along the ceiling rather than straight down
