[QUOTE="TJay74, post: 2776375, member: 5857"] Hate to tell you this, under-sizing is not crazy. It serves a purpose and works very well if it has been done correctly. Both of our houses have been under sized by about a .5 ton, both of them ran lower bills than the surrounding neighbors. People can complain about the OG&E smart hours all they want, the program works and can save you a boat load of money provided you can cut and or eliminate usage between the 2p-7p time frame. I turn the AC on at 7am to 70° and turn it up to 80° at 2pm, house never gets higher than 75-76° during that time frame. Then it stays at 74° until around 10pm when it drops to 73° for the rest of the night. When stuff is not in use it is not plugged in other than TV and appliances. It is pretty easy to lower the bill, just have to do some research and change the usage habits in the home. [/QUOTE]
