it looks like you've got everything thought it well, which is excellent.
We use window units as well for a few weeks in the summer. The 2 smaller bedroom ones are used more than the larger living room one.
I live with my parents, and I was home this summer due to being laid off, so I spent a lot of time futzing with fans and such.
I put a box fan in the hatchway to the attic, to suck hot air up and out. And I controlled the temp in my basement bedroom with a reversible window fan. in the daytime, I drew air into my room through the rest of the basement. letting the concrete cool off the air before entering my room. at night,I sucked in cool outside air directly in. It worked surprisingly well.
I also put a spring-loaded closer on my door. In the cooler months it traps heat from the computer and lights and TV so I don't need to run the electric heater, but my cat can still come and go as she pleases.
