7.5 hours the last few days. 4.5 hours on Monday since it was overcast. The thermostat adjusts to 78 when my wife and i leave for work and 78 after we go to bed. We havr a window unit to keep the bedroom at 68 at night. Saturday and Sunday when we were home all day it was right at 11 hours.

8hr and change
4ton 2,100 sq ft
It cools the main floor.
Mini split in the upstairs bedroom. It runs basically 24/7 with the inverter setup.

have it set to 75 and it runs 24/7
There’s no point in setting in any cooler than 75 because it’s never gonna get there

I work with people that don’t get that what ever you dial the temperature to is not what is coming out the vents. It is air that is drier and typically 20 degrees cooler.
They believe what you set the thermostat at is what the air temperature is coming out. I hate to beak it to them that it is just colder air coming out. Only way you can customize this with two stage cooling, and most systems are a single stage.
So a misplaced thermostat that is in a hot room with a high ceiling will run more and leave some rooms colder than others.

No clue. 73 at night. Upon waking i set it to 76. No one there during the day, except dog.
Ordered new thermostat and just painted bricks to lower absorbed heat. Direct sunlight a lot...house faces due east
Public service.....bricks absorb so much damn heat, its insane

Just eyeballing it, about 13.5 hours a day over the last ten days. Apparently 16.25 hours yesterday

Invest in insulation. Have an energy audit done. You can thank me after you see how much your utility bill drops

Very slow in the 40 yard dash but a bit more respectable in the 100.
