South and West walls are brick with a window on the west wall. There is a Crape myrtle outside the window which helps, but when the bricks heat up they really add to the heat load to cool the room.

Did not want to plant a tree....because it would be close to where the sewer line and incoming water line is located.

Only real option was to add more "A/C cooling" to the room. So for ~ $ 50 materials and a couple hours work...........I get twice the cooling.....much better now.
