- Clear area around cooling vents.
- Furniture, carpets, and other objects can block vents and
prevent air from traveling. This blockage makes your cooling system
work harder and prevents rooms from cooling down quickly.
- Use your windows to keep out heat.
- Close window coverings on the sides of your home where sunlight
enters the most to prevent heat from getting in through your
windows.
- Operate your thermostat efficiently.
- During the cooling season, set your thermostat to as high a
temperature as possible, while still maintaining personal
comfort.
- If you're not home for more than 8 hours, consider turning up
your thermostat 7° to 10°.
- Overnight, consider turning up your thermostat 3° to 4° while
sleeping.
- Use fans and ventilation to cool your home.
- If you use air conditioning to cool your home, a ceiling fan
allows you to raise the thermostat setting about 4°F with no
reduction in comfort.
- Turn off ceiling fans when you leave the room. Remember that
fans cool people, not rooms, by creating a wind chill effect.
- During the warmer-temperature months, set your fans
counter-clockwise to push air towards the floor.
