I have a portable aircon which works with Alexa app on the PC and can be automatised to start/stop at temperatures, or to be operated manually. I plan to place that portrable aircon on the attic above my room, fabricate an attachment for the top and put flixible hose on it and lead it onto the ceiling of my room. It will cost about £250 to do the project. Otherwise a real wall mounted aircon would be around 2 grands to buy and get fitted by pros. My issue is that I have close proximity neighbours who still use fireplace and burn wood to heat their house, the smoke gets in through my room windows, but I imagine if I had an aircon on the side of my house, it would do the same and blow in the same polluted air but colder. So probably I will go with attic aircon project for both of those reasons. I will link the aircon to the temperature sensor in my room and make it work like a normal external aircon.That sounds impressive! Maybe you add an indoor Vs outdoor pair of temp sensors and motorise your windows to automatically open when that differential goes the wrong way through
