Aircon except when the night time temperature is below 23C, then it's a fan job.

No. I get an allergic reaction to the AC if I sleep with it on.

 

Look it up in the Merck Medical Dictionary: Air Conditioner Allergy.

 

The movement of dust at night by the AC gets in my eyes which probably don't fully close,  so I wake up with bloodshot eyes.

Air con, 22 C until the morning.

Around 5:00 am put on Dry mode to save electricity.  Comfortable enough.

 

Really high heat and humidity the last month.

 

Dreading the electric bill! 

Let me get this right. You have an AC on with windows open? How is that supposed to work? AC is air conditioning. How does it condition the air when theres fresh air coming through the open windows? 
 

Your electric bill must be sky high trying to cool down Thailand. ????
 

Windows closed, AC on and use a ceiling fan to assist moving the conditioned air around the room. 
 

Anyone that uses AC without a fan is an idiot.

Doesn't keeping 2 windows open make the AC work harder?

Yeah trying to cool down Thailand. ????

You need to close the windows and get a humidifier pal. 

Air at 26 for a few hours ! Ceiling fan all the time! Floor fan to drown out the outside noise ( dogs,cats, sparrows and roosters) .

My AC gets too cold if i use the ceiling fan for too long even at 27⁰, presumably you use a duvet or bed sheets?

I mean if you leave 2 windows open aren't you defeating the purpose of using the ac?

The dry mouth could very well be the result of sleeping with your mouth open. I never had a problem with dry mouth until about 5 years ago when I started rolling onto my back from my routine side-sleeping position. As I have aged, I feel painful pressure points on my hips, so my body naturally compensates by rolling over onto my back. As soon as I'm on my back, the mouth opens and I am not even aware of it. My wife was the one that made me aware of sleeping with my mouth open. I keep a bottle of water by the bed and sip from it all night long. It' just another downside to ageing. 

Maybe you could try a new matres/topper or a more soft one? A latex topper about 7-8 cm thick helped me a lot.

Both.

Are you meant to put sheets over those toppers as usual? i just wonder why they bother with the gaudy colours

Topper on first, then mattress protector, then sheet

in 25 years in Thailand and Australia (QLD), I've probably used air-con in total less than 12 hours.

If I was sick, I might have it one and that's about it.

My guests would use tin there rooms but I'd try and persuade then to use a timer or just the fan.

 

Oddly enough I hardly ever drove without air-con. I also got used it at work.

sorry but 22 is so ridiculous...

 

Yes, still to hot.

 

I think only the Thais or Arabs think high humidity and extreme heat are comfortable to sleep above that.

 

.... Except the falangs cheap Charlie's of course.

 

Ridiculous cheapies to lose sleep over an extra 20 baht to be comfortable.
