You may not know your home air conditioner is consuming so much electricity or giving your children asthma with out you knowing it. Dirty air conditioner could be a source of bacteria that can cause asthma. Or your air conditioner is so big it consume more electricity than what it is needed for your room. To find out if your doubt is wrong or not, please read this article.•Determine the size of your room. One hp air conditioner could cool a room with the size of 12 sq. meter. Most rooms have three meter distance from floor to ceiling. In hotter climate, you need a bigger hp rating. Buy only the right size of air conditioner for your home and save power.
•The curtain of your windows should be thick in order that the heat transfer is not hasten from outside to inside of your room. This will increase the duration gap from the time your thermostat trips off in the desired setting and the time when it runs again when the sensor detects the room is hot again.
•If you can make your ceiling insulated by the cheap foam insulation, this is better. Your air conditioner running time to cool your room will decrease.
•Install your home air conditioner in the area which is not directly hit by the sun light. The sun light, especially during summer, is intense and could add load to your air conditioner.
•Select the area where your air conditioner will be installed that there will be enough air ventilation. Aircon needs ventilation to transfer the heat taken from inside the room to outside of your home. Poor ventilation will affect your unit performance and will not deliver the correct coldness. The minimum distance from the back of your aircon to any wall is one meter.
•Install your air conditioner about 6 ft. from the floor. The higher you can install it the better but provide provision that when it is taken our for general cleaning, the technician will not need chair or table to take it out. The tendency of the hot air is to rise while cold air has the tendency to descend. When your air conditioner is above your head or near the ceiling, it could take away the hot air directly and suck it in its system hastening the cooling process.
•The best air conditioner for your home is window-type. Window-type air con is easy to use, easy to repair , easy to clean and easy to install.
•The wall mounted, ceiling mounted and the cassette-type air conditioners are difficult to install, repair and clean. Sometimes it is needed to have tarpaulin canvass covered your entire room in order to clean the wall-mounted or ceiling mounted air conditioners. If you do not cover your room, there is a possibility it will be dirtied by the straying water.
•Clean your air con regularly. Usually it is once every three to four months. When after three or four months and you see the front aluminum fins are still clean, do not request for general cleaning. You may have one month more to clean it.
•Only prefer the technician you know when requesting for repairs.
•Request your technician to teach you to remove the front cover of your aircon and clean your filter.
•Buy anti microbial filter. This anti microbial filter will help eliminate the threat of asthma from your small children , which may be triggered by dust from your room.
•Always clean your room regularly. Dust from your room is suctioned by the aircon. Less dust means less dirt going to your air conditioner, which means a longer time for your aircon before general cleaning.
