Air conditioner has become a necessity today because of the scorching heat of sun outside. But air conditioner consumes a lot of electricity. Here we will learn how to save electricity while enjoying the comfort of air conditioner.
First thing to keep in mind is to buy a proper size unit for the area to be cooled and intended number of persons occupying the room. A big size AC will be expensive and will consume more electricity. Hence, save money and conserve electricity by purchasing a required size unit.
Properly select the location where you are going to set up your AC. It should not be in direct contact of sun otherwise its performance will go down and it will also consume more electricity.
A room should be properly insulated where AC is installed. There should be no opening space for air to go out otherwise efficiency of AC will go down as the air is leaking out. For this, check all the opening space in the room and seal that. Put curtains on your window to stop the sun rays entering in your room.
Many times in extreme summers you bring the temperature of your AC to a very lower point. But you might not know that lowering the temperature by 1 degree increases the energy consumption by 2%. Hence, try to increase the temperature of your AC up to a point where it does not make much difference to cooling.
Your AC also need a regular check up. Its filter need periodic cleaning, to check the status of filter hold it in sunlight, if you are able to see across then it doesn’t need any cleaning otherwise it does. You can read the user’s manual to know more about AC cleaning like fans cleaning, condenser coils cleaning.
At moderate temperature, ceiling fans can provide very low cost comfort. These fans improve the air circulation in your room and raise the air conditioner’s thermostat. Like this, fans can make your air conditioner’s job easier while saving you money. Ceiling fan uses only one-tenth of electricity in comparison to electricity consumed by a home air conditioner.
By now it must be clear that AC consumes a lot of electricity. So never use it to cool a empty room when nobody is present in that room. Whenever you go out of your home, you can set the automatic timer of AC to get a cool room. Save electricity and you will get it back.
