The most important thing about saving some money this summer and fall regarding your air conditioning unit is keeping your unit running at its top performance. Here are some tips you can do on your own to keep the unit working as efficiently as possible while saving you money.
- Air filters are key. They have to be clean - if not more energy will be used because there isn't a clear flow through the filter. Check them every 60-90 days to replace.
- The button on your thermostat should be set to On and not Auto. This will keep the fan running nonstop instead of shutting on and off again which will end up causing more energy to be used.
- On the outside unit make sure to wash the condenser coil once a year. A dirty condenser coil will run hot.
