OK... So, it is always a good idea to have your home AC unit located in the shade. Whether it is on the shady side of the house, or in the shade of a nice tree.
Well, our builder decided to do neither. So, taking matters into my own hands... build a shade enclosure for our AC units. One that will put them in the shade, BUT still allow proper ventilation.
I am using standard galvanized fencing from Lowe's (I can't remember what I paid for this stuff, so don't ask). The plan is to build a durable, decent looking shade solution.
Our units sit on the WEST side of the house. When the sun hits about 12:30 P.M. they are in direct sun until about 5:30 in the evening. Sucks, huh?
