Doctor T,
Close proximity to a BR is "reasonable accommodation." When I worked, I needed an AC for my my office. There was no resistance to this. And when my office needed to move for construction, the AC went w me.
Another part of accommodation was that the hospital turned AC's on in mid-May and off in Sept. I needed it turned on in April for that very hot, surprise day that would come and to be left on thru October. I just asked.
Good luck to you,
ANN
