9 tips to use air conditioner more durable, super energy saving

(Baonghean.vn) - Do not set the temperature too low, combine using fans with air conditioners, turn the air conditioner on and off properly... will save a significant amount of electricity for your family during hot summer days.

Choose the right air conditioner capacity

The most important factor in choosing an air conditioner is the room volume. If the room is small, you should choose an air conditioner with low capacity, you should calculate according to the formula 1m²equivalent to 500 BTU, and so on.

In addition, it is also necessary to calculate factors such as: wall and roof materials; room insulation; number of people regularly present in the same room; room ventilation; solar radiation affecting the room, etc.

Air-conditioned rooms must be airtight.

If you turn on the air conditioner and open the window or open the door too many times, the cold air will be lost outside, leading to wasting electricity. Therefore, to save electricity when using the air conditioner, you should not turn on the air conditioner and open the door at the same time and pay attention to seal the window gaps.

Choose a suitable location to install the air conditioner

Many people often install air conditioners in the hottest locations and think that their room will be cooled faster. Your way of thinking is completely wrong because these locations require the machine to work harder and that means the amount of electricity also increases. You should choose to install the air conditioner in the East or North of the house, where there is less direct sunlight.

Do not let the temperature get too low

This is the most energy-saving and efficient way to use air conditioning. To save energy, you should not set the air conditioning temperature too low. Not only is it a waste of energy, but it also makes you and your loved ones susceptible to respiratory diseases such as colds, coughs, flu, etc. You should set the air conditioning at 27 or 28 degrees Celsius. You can also use it with a fan, the ventilation fan will save a lot of energy.

Use the remote control to change the cooling mode from "Cool" (cool air, the image represents a snowflake) to "Dry" mode (dehumidity, the image represents a water drop), the power consumption of the air conditioner will be reduced by 10 times, limiting thermal shock because the room temperature will not be lower than 23 degrees Celsius and will not fluctuate much with the outside temperature.

Do not let sunlight shine into the room

Sunlight can increase the temperature of the room, so the air conditioner will have to work harder. Therefore, for rooms with glass doors, there should be curtains to block out the direct sunlight.

Arrange furniture properly

Arranging furniture properly so as not to block ventilation also helps users save electricity.

Combine using fans with air conditioners

Using a fan will help circulate cool air in the room, which also means you don't have to turn the temperature down as low, thus using less electricity.

Turn off the air conditioner properly

Most people turn it off with the remote control and think that the air conditioner will no longer consume electricity. But you are wrong, the machine still consumes an amount of electricity that you do not know. To prevent this situation, there is only one way: you must turn off the Aptomat. This is the secret to using air conditioners to save electricity that not everyone knows.

Another thing to note when using the air conditioner is that you should not turn it on and off too many times. This will consume a lot of electricity because the air conditioner needs a lot of energy to restart the machine. Therefore, you should keep the temperature of your room at a stable level.

You should call a technician to clean the air conditioner periodically. Illustration photo.

Regularly clean the air conditioner

Regularly clean and maintain the machine to ensure good working performance of the machine. Simply cleaning the dust accumulated in the filter can reduce the machine's operating capacity by up to 15%, helping to save a large amount of electricity.

Usually after 3 months of using the air conditioner in the summer, you should clean them once or if you do not have time, you can call a technician to repair it. Because if the air conditioner has too much dirt on it, it will hinder the heat exchange and the cold air rails. Therefore, even though you have adjusted the temperature to a low level, it still does not cool the room, leading to more electricity consumption.
