Air Conditioning & Cooling Tips

 

How do you keep your home cool during extreme heat?

  • Use your bbq! Cooking outside is a great way to keep the heat outside and not inside.
  • Dyers produce a lot of heat when drying your clothers. Try using a clothesline instead and let the sun do the drying for you. It won't add extra heat to your house and it also saves you money!
  • Close your blinds. Having your blinds open, lets sunlight pour through into your apartment which will warm it up and counteract the cool breeze from your windows. So keep your blinds closed to block out sunlight, but leave them slightly open to let the breeze in.
  • Using a ceiling fan can make your home feel up to 10 degrees cooler.

In the articles below, you'll find out more about air conditioning and cooling, like why it is important to keep the air in your house clean, and why it's important to have an air conditioner. What are the most common A/C problems and how can you fix them? Is it worth spening the extra money on regular maintenance?
