Fans, fans and more fans. We also have a 48 inch water fed unit that is nice!
-
Same. We even have 6 ft movie-set style babies
-
Would love a place with AC! With 100+ degree days on the horizon it would be really nice!!!
-
Start at 03:00 out by noon.
Swamp coolers, plastic under the bed totes filled with ice, fans blowing over the ice into the work areas.

I guess I'm lucky in the northeast, we don't see much over 95°. Except when it hits 100°, LOL, pretty much all day, every day. If you can do the AC thing, such as assorted methods outlined last year, go for it. We have 16' ceilings, so the cost would kill us. But hopefully, in a few years we'd like to move, and it will be considered heavily. Otherwise, sweat it out...

I'm lucky enough to usually be able to shift my print times to the cooler periods, but damn, it seems like all of the dark shirts requiring flash come on the hot days.
Don't they know know that white is cooler to wear?

we love the heat, it is too cold for too long here in NY, the hotness only lasts about 90 days and about the time you have had enough it is cold all over again >:(

For once I get to "haha" you guys when it comes to weather! We have hit 85 once so far this year, maybe 3 80 degree days.... Oh and Pierre, I hope you run low on freon! ;D
-
I prefer how the white ink flows on these nice warm summer days... but mooseman is right, as soon as we're sick of the heat here in Chicago, it's starting to get cold again

It's been 100 plus in our shop for a couple months now. Lot's of fans moving air helps a bit, and we keep Mission Endura Cool head wraps around, put some water from the cooler on them, put them on your head, it is obviously nice and cold from the water cooler, but once it's balanced out, the evaporation happening causes it to drop at least 10 degrees. If they feel like they equaled to your body temp. Take it off, and snap it a few times and it drops again, they actually help quite a bit. One of the girls here is a softball mommy so she's learned with 3 girls on those hot fields all weekend to get these head bands that have a jell pack in them, put them in the freezer. You look goofy but man do they cool you down quick.
OR, you can be like Ole Dirkdiggler and have an a/c unit set up just for special workstation cold drops around the shop. I saw them when we were there, pretty freakin nice actually!!

We run fans and A/C. Yeah, the A/C hurts like hell, but our people make the money for us. I HAVE to keep them somewhat comfortable. There's no doubt in my mind when temps go up, production goes down. We run the A/c and try to keep it below 90. We're looking at other options, re-venting, high wall outlet fans, etc. But for now we keep them as comfy and productive as possible. I do remember the day myself, walking on to a shop at 5 in the AM and it's already 90, looking forward to 8-10 hours of 110-120 heat. Sometimes I feel like we spoil them, but again, they are doing the work for me.

Today- 108 OUTSIDE the shop
