Andrew,

FWIW
I think you may have 'nailed' it when you mentioned the cool temperature of your printer 'room'.
Is yours one of the enclosed types?

Both ABS and ASA should be printed in an enclosed, heated environment.  The print bed is usually around 90 degrees C with the extruder around 280 Degrees C.  PLA is far less demanding to print with but will often deform in the heat (eg like sitting on your car dashboard under the Australian sun.
