My home elevator passed inspection yesterday. The technician performed minor maintenance. It's good for another six months.  Great

We're at that point of spring here in Chester, MA when the days are warm and nights are cool. The attic ventilation fans cool the house at night. I keep the window shades drawn downward on the sunny side of the house during the day to keep the indoors from becoming overly warm. This would involve climbing a lot of stairs if it weren't for my home elevator.  Great

I only have one south facing window upstairs - so I don't mess with it.

I do close all the east and south facing drapes during the day.... Walking inside at 3 in the afternoon it' s always 10-15 degrees (f) cooler inside.....

Fans in the windows at night during warmer weather helps...

My drapes are translucent white. The best of both worlds.

My brother was here several days ago. He couldn't resist riding the elevator from the cellar to the attic and back down again.   Naughty

No, but then my brother isn't much of a Star Trek fan. It's more likely that the elevator would remind him of those transport tubes in Futurama.  Thinking
