Obviously, one project would be to insulate the area below the room-- perhaps blow in some cellulose or something that'd cut down on the transmission of heat both ways.
But after that, well... The idea of putting in a central-air system is tempting, but it'd be extremely expensive, what with the power, the heavy equipment, the ducting, etc. I am considering installing a whole-house fan, which'd be a lot less, but I'd like to know how well I could expect a whole-house fan to cool things down.
If anyone has a whole-house fan, and can tell me how well they work-- or has installed central air, and can share some warnings or horror stories-- I'd be grateful.
