Ductless mini splits are one of the most expensive HVAC systems you can install in the states, although they're pretty ubiquitous in EweRope. (Since the systems are so desirable and still relatively rare, installers totally rip people off around here. You can install them yourself and save a boatload of money, but you still have to pay a licensed installer for final connections and system filling/bleeding.) Anyway, they're the most efficient heating/cooling system on the planet, with some of them having SEER ratings above 30. Fujitsus are the best for heating (read: Seattle), and Mitsubishi are the best for cooling. There are some cheaper options, but not as efficient, reliable, and not worth it in the long run.
The good news is that not only would you be adding AC for those few weeks a year we need it, but it would cut your heating bill in the heating months considerably, so it's like getting a huge discount over time.
If you're handy you could buy a three-headed system that would cover most of your house (unless you have a modern gigantic mcmansion, which it sounds like you don't) for about $4K through wholesalers, spend $500 in installation parts, and pay another $300 to be ripped off by an installer for filling/bleeding. You'd be out about $5K, but your heating bills would drop in half in the winter, and you'd be cutting your AC bill in half for a month or two per year when it's hot enough for AC.
Just an option. -
I think it’s time for the Hardcore Home Improvement board.

Unless you're Race, then it's miserably long and you can afford to waste a few decades surrounded by scrub hills and dust -

I'll tell my wife to get a better job -
The weather is pretty glorious 5-6 months out of the year here 2 miles north of the Greatest Setting in College Football. But even we get 80 degree days where AC is nice.BearsWiin said:

But i do appreciate the joys of coastal California rich people living. Remember that Grandma Yella lived in a private community in Laguna Beach that makes Aptos look like the projects.
