Air conditioning Tips for Summer
Air conditioning Tips for Summer
- Get your AC unit serviced — This is probably the most important tip on the list. Getting your AC unit serviced before the summer season starts will help ensure that it’s running properly and efficiently.
- Educate yourself on how your AC unit works — This will help you troubleshoot any issues that may come up and know when to call for professional help.
- Consider energy-efficient options — If your AC unit is old and inefficient, consider upgrading to a newer, more energy-efficient model. This will help you save money on your energy bill and be more environmentally friendly.
- Use your AC wisely — Don’t blast the AC when it’s not necessary. When it’s not hot outside, open the windows and let the fresh air in.
- Take care of your AC unit — Keep the area around your AC unit clear of debris and make sure the unit itself is clean. This will help it run more efficiently and prevent any problems.
- Turn off your air conditioner when you leave the house — this will save you money and energy.
- Set your thermostat to 78 degrees F- (25 C) — this is the ideal temperature for summertime.
- Clean or change your air conditioner filter — a clean filter will help your air conditioner run more efficiently.
- Use fans to supplement your air conditioner — fans use less energy than air conditioners and can help circulate cool air throughout your home.
- Take advantage of natural ventilation — open windows and doors to let in the cooler outdoor air.
- Close blinds and curtains during the day — this will help keep your home cooler by blocking out the sun’s heat.
- Use appliances wisely — avoid using ovens, dishwashers, and clothes dryers during the hottest hours of the day.
