Important Note About Air Conditioning in the Desert:
To ensure our cooling systems operate efficiently throughout your stay, we follow recommended guidelines from local HVAC professionals for desert climates. During peak summer months when outdoor temperatures regularly exceed 100°F, we maintain thermostat settings within a range that keeps the systems running safely and effectively. Due to the uniquely low humidity of the Coachella Valley desert air, the home feels significantly cooler and more comfortable than the same temperature would in more humid climates — most guests are pleasantly surprised!
In summer months to help maintain a comfortable environment, please keep all doors and the garage closed and window shades drawn in sun-facing areas during the warmer parts of the day. The estate has multiple AC units which are regularly professionally maintained and monitored to keep them running safely and efficiently.
Setting the thermostat to extreme temperatures during peak heat can cause system failure, leaving the property without cooling entirely and potential liability. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in helping us keep everyone comfortable throughout your stay.
