It’s hot out there! Keep cool while saving money and energy with these helpful tips for optimizing your air conditioning system:
- Use ceiling fans: ceiling fans are a great way to make a room feel cooler faster and use less energy than running the AC.
- Invest in a programmable thermostat: keep energy costs low by programming a thermostat to lower the indoor temperature when you are away or sleeping.
- Change or clean your air filters regularly: clogged air filters can make your AC system work harder which costs you more money.
- Keep blinds and curtains closed: during the day when the sun is at its peak, keep curtains and blinds closed to block out the hot sun and keep your home cooler.
- Change your AC Direction: make sure to adjust the direction of your AC vents so the cool air is directed to the areas with the most people in them.
