My understanding of things, shade is cooler. However, I've seen one study
where they did one test (two houses, one in the shade) and found less than
5% savings.

I'd go wtih the shade, as long as it isn't blocking the air flow.

This probably came up beforebut I still am not sure of the answer.
My AC condenser is exposed to the sun for a good part of the day.
I have often thought that by making some sort of a covering to ward off the
sun the unit would cool better and perhaps not work as hard.Any ideas?
