In the heat of summer, keeping you home cool can mean
racking up expensive utilities bills for air conditioning. But really—is that
how you want to spend your money? Didn’t think so. Your Sacramento Moving
Company offers suggestions for keeping your home refreshingly cool without
turning down the AC.
Use area fans. Area fans such as oscillating fans, small
personal fans, or ceiling fans use far less energy than the air conditioner so
it makes sense to use these in place of the AC whenever possible. If you will
be in one room for an extended period of time, turn on fans in that room so
that your AC can be set at a higher temperature yet you still get the cooling
you want in the area you most need it.
Prevent your house from heating up in the first place. If it is
cool out in the evening, turn off the AC and open the windows to let in cool
air that you don’t have to pay for. During the day, keep your windows closed so
that the heat doesn’t come in and you can preserve the cool air within the
house. Also in any rooms that you won’t be spending time in (bedrooms for
example) close the curtains to keep the heat out.
Avoid using hot appliances. Using the oven, stove or iron can
heat up the house quickly. If you must use these appliances, do so early in the
morning or late in the evening when it is cool out. If you can avoid cooking by preparing cold
meals, that would save you from having to turn on the oven at all. So when you
see high degrees on the weather report… start tossing together salad for
dinner!
