Don t run your air conditioner when the air outside is cool. Don t allow too much outside air into your system when it is on. Be careful not to overuse the unit beyond its capacity. Your surroundings will be very comfortable with these few simple maintenance rules. At the first sign your system is not working properly, call a professional.
Early repair can keep major problems from forming.
As with most things, air conditioners have had some major changes. Due to high electric and gas charges, air conditioners have become more energy efficient. Changes have been made in minimizing the usage of the unit and the design to make the unit run more efficiently. Minimizing the use of the unit is controllable by the owner if the thermostat is set higher when not needed. Thermostats are on newer units and some come with a timer so you can increase the setting while you are at work, and lower when you arrive home.
