Hot outside?

Try setting it to 82 when its over 100 outside!

The human body is magnificent in the way it can adapt to many different weather conditions. The way we adapt is by exposing ourselves to the weather. With San Fernando air conditioning, if you set your thermostat to 68 degrees and stay inside all summer when you walk outdoors and its 92 degrees it is going to feel like you are standing on the sun! If your thermostat is set to a higher temp like 80 or so when you walk outside it will only feel slightly warmer.

To balance heath, safety and comfort here are some quick tips from your San Fernando air conditioning experts:

If the weather is around 90 outside, try setting your thermostat to 80 instead of 70. For those super hot days when it hits like 100 try to set the thermostat even higher than that around 85 or so. Many people have window unit air conditioners. If you are using one of these they most likely will not have a temperature gauge. Just inch the setting cooler gradually until you find a reasonable setting.

To save money its always a good idea to turn of the air conditioning unit when you are not home. When you do leave make sure that all your blind are shut. This will help keep the sun from heating from blazing in and warming everything up. When you come back to your house it is a good idea to simply move the air conditioning temperature gradually until you are comfortable. Instead of cranking it down as cool as possible this will keep the temp as high as you can stand it while still feeling cool enough to be comfortable.

A difference in degrees Fahrenheit can be shocking. As little as two degrees can make the world a difference. Air conditioning dries out the air around you so if you live in a humid area even having the air conditioner the same temperature as outside will feel cooler! Some people set their thermostat in the hottest of hottest weather as low as 68 to 72 degrees! This is wasteful of energy (costing you more money) but also proves to be harsh on your body. If you are used to staying indoors during hot months at 68 degrees and you go outdoors to extreme heat you will be more susceptible to heat exhaustion etc. Your San Fernando air conditioning company recommends picking a more moderate temperature. This way you save energy and money! When it comes time to going outdoors you will be energized, ready to go and comfortable!

Experiment with inching your thermostat or San Fernando air conditioning settings down gradually from whatever interior temperature you are starting with, instead of just fixed on cold. This create savings on the electric bill, and your increased ability to enjoy the outdoors during hot weather.
