Hot and irritating summers ! Who comes for the rescue? The greatest inventions of all era’s and the blessing of the early 1902, Air Conditioner! But do we know that AC’s bring in a lot of electric bill revenue, topping the list of commodity which draw excess power for operation? That’s why you never see your AC run until morning as our mom’s switch it off immediately after we sleep! Lets stop being nostalgic and come to few tricks we present you so that you could save few bucks from your electricity bill :-
- Try to keep your AC at temperature above 25°C unless bearing too much, as below this the power consumption takes up to 3- 5% more and so does your bill.
- For this you can add some essentials like – Using ample thick curtains, applying solar effective roof coating and blocking sunlight can help you cut off your AC usage.
- Try to buy AC with high SEER rating and energy efficient model. Measure width and breadth of your room and use AC ton calculate available online to decide the ton of AC needed.
- Consider ratings for your AC, if you need your AC to work more than 15 hours, opt for a 5 star rated to optimise energy consumption.
- Clean your AC filters and coils via servicing regularly to avoid pressure upon your Air Conditioners to work harder. You can also apply advanced thermostats which regulate AC temperature upon conditions.
- Adding zoning system in your AC system can cool only the dependable areas of the room avoiding unnecessary energy utilisation to cool out the whole room.
- Choose an AC unit with a variable speed compressor, which adapts its temperature output to meet specific cooling requirements, increasing efficiency and lowering energy usage.
- Equip your air conditioner with TXVs to optimise refrigerant movement, ensuring that the system performs at top efficiency under variable load situations.
- Insulate your pipes to reduce energy loss. Proper insulation decreases cooling load by preserving air in the pipes at the proper temperature.
- Use high-efficiency air filters (MERV 13 or higher). These filters increase the condition of the air while ensuring proper airflow, which reduces system strain.
