In Florida, we go for a swim in our pool before bed and put the A/C to 73. Up north when it is hot, we open the slider and the skylights to let out the heat, take a cold shower before bed, and put on both the ceiling fan over the bed and a couple of oscillating fans pointed at the bed. With the exception of only a couple of nights per year, that is all we need for a good sleep. Since we live in a log home up north, there is no duct work, so no A/C, but we really don't need it.
