Never turn off the air conditioning unit unless you will not turn it on in 3 days
Minimum A / C thermostat temperature of 72 ° F
Use ceiling fans. Ceiling fans have 2 directions, now in summer, make sure the air is circulating down. The functions of the fans are to circulate the cold air around the house and make us feel a cooler environment.
Wash and dry clothes at night. It is not that electricity is cheaper at night, but that during the day the temperature is higher and if we add more heat to the house when washing and drying clothes, the A / C will be activated more times.
Change the air filters. Clean air filters go a long way, both, to better air conditioning unit performance and to keeping our home less dusty and healthier.
