It has been over 95 two consecutive days but my shop is still at 68. I keep the doors closed during the day, and open up on cool nights when it needs cooling. Anyone else use natural AC?
 
I use a whole house exhaust fan at night and close things up around 07:00. Rarely do I need the AC.

Same thing here if I'm working a lot on the shop. Works
good. in the winter if I open the doors on the nice days it
stays warm on the cold days.
 
Alway worked well for me until the neighbor got a couple of propane
cannons. Haven't been able to have the windows open at night.
 
I keep my shop buttoned up tight also, just open the door to sneek stuff in and out, that concrete slab keeps it cool most of the summer and keeping the door shut also keeps the skeeters and biting flys out. I do have a big window unit, but rarely ever use it. I did have the windows open today, finally had a nice day with NW wind and low humidity after about 3 weeks of rain, it was starting to smell musty in there. There was a strange round light in the sky today, felt great!!
 
Here is my idea of shop AC. My pole barn has no insulation. Also installed a 1500 cubic ft/ minute power vent in roof. If I can't stant the heat in the shop, I get out.
