Re: O/T - AirCon (yes, even at this time of the year)

[geraint@xxxxxxx]

Well what I was wondering was if I could use like a inline bathroom
extractor fan in the pipework which would sort of "push" or
"pull"
the cold air from the ducting, hopefully creating a bit of a
circulation issue. Do you think that would be a go-er ?

See what you mean about the temperature sensor though, again mine
would be similar. i.e sensor in the loft, actual cooling in the
bedroom.

Going to have to get creative with this. Maybe find one thats more
mechanical on the controls, and then just x10 it with an AD10 or one
that I could "hack" the main control board and install into a box
locally in the bedroom.

Cheers
Geraint.
