Is there an AC and heating unit in every house where you live?

I'm in Europe and AC is rare here. Our climate usually is moderate so we don't really need AC.

Yes, having a functional AC is mandatory.

Renting out somewhere that doesn't have one working is illegal. If it breaks, it becomes an emergency that must be fixed immediately.

Alternate housing must be provided if the AC cannot be fixed in a timely manner.

Heater, not so much. Few people have one, or if they do only use it sparingly.

AC: 1 out of 2

Heating: Both

The one without an AC unit is 5 miles from the coast. I live in Southern California.

Here heating is more important

no one will be safe in minus 40

I can't even imagine that.

The coldest it got here last year was 36.

Nope. Temperatures are not too extreme here

I don't think my house has these two things.

And yup, I'm European.

Heating is mandatory in our country, but not everybody has a cooler. 25 + Celsius usually not last many weeks.

I'm from south of Europe.

No AC is any of the houses I've lived in. Most houses don't.

I think everyone has heat but A/C can vary wildly in California, depending on if you are in coastal regions or the hot interior of the state. Where I am it’s mixed whether people do or don’t have Ac.

As a European I don't know anyone with AC in their house either. Summers here are very mild. A few weeks with temperatures above 30°C per year aren't really enough to justify getting AC installed.

We cope by taking showers, using liberal amounts of deodorant and get on with it. You shouldn't expect to find AC in the average workplace either.

Absolutely everyone has a heating unit though.

Yes, maybe not central AC/heating necessarily, but you'll at least have window units or something. We have all four seasons where I'm at, so it can get deadly hot in the summer (today, actual temp is 96* with real feels of 106*) and blizzards in the winter.

I think so. The electric company is shitty sometimes though and turns it off in the summer.

Yes, in my suburb houses have air conditioning and gas heating. It's not a luxury anymore, but a necessity. Australian summers are brutal. I like mine.

In Australia it's pretty common to have AC in most places

heating less so since it doesn't get as cold

nope. lotta slums in my country. used to live in one. ac is considered a luxury over here
