• Perform regular air conditioning maintenance

In the above, we discussed about the importance of maintenance and the operations to be carried out. Keeping the inlets and outlets clean of dust and dirt will increase the performance of the equipment.

• Keep the right temperature

The variation of one degree of temperature increases energy consumption by up to 8%. Some organizations advise keeping the room between 22 and 25ºC. In addition, it must be taken into account that a temperature difference of more than 12ºC between the outside and inside temperatures is not healthy.

• Air conditioner location

The area where the air conditioner is located should be an area where it does not get direct sunlight and where there is good air circulation.

• Proper use.

When the air conditioning is on, try not to open doors or windows unnecessarily. In the hottest hours, try to cover the windows with curtains or blinds to prevent heat from entering. The equipment should also be turned off for a while before leaving, since the cool can last ten minutes or a quarter of an hour perfectly.

• Proper choice of equipment

An efficient air conditioning unit will consume less than one with less efficiency. Class A equipment is the most efficient, consuming up to 60% less electricity than other high-consumption equipment with the same features. You can see class A air conditioning units with inverter technology in our store .

To see the power of the equipment, you have to take into account the orientation of the house, the insulation,… To get an approximate idea, it is usually 100 frigories (0.11 KW) for each square meter.

• Insulation and color of the walls

The insulation of the home is a fundamental factor to take into account, losses could occur through doors and windows.

Painting the walls and ceilings of the house in light colors helps keep the room cooler.
