Save Money On Your Air Conditioning Costs With These Tips
Using ceiling fans in most rooms at the least makes it feel cooler, so you can get by with a couple less degrees lower temps on the thermostat, One important thing is don't toggle your temperature, find a comfort zone and leave it set, this will cost you less as the air conditioner won't have to work harder to get the house cooled off and its cheaper to maintain the same temperature.
Check to make sure your outside condensing unit coils are CLEAN. if they can't flow the air it will take longer to cool down and use more energy costing you more in electric.
Change your air filter often, this will also increase air flow helping your air conditioning unit to do it's job more effectively and cut your costs. During the high use try to check once every week or two the filters are very inexpensive and replacing will help save.
Lastly, on your blower/heater unit inside, their is a part called an a- coil so named because it is shaped like and "a". this is just like the outer coils. if kept clean the air will flow better and your air conditioning will run at top efficient capacity
The last tip might be one thing that is best to leave to a professional, but all the the others are easily done yourself.
