4.Set the temperature at about 25oC. For every degree raised, you can save about $16 a year*.
Did You Know? The lower the temperature setting, the more energy used by your air-conditioner.

6.Service your air-conditioning units regularly and get it inspected annually. Besides the air filters, the condition of other components of an air-conditioning unit (e.g. refrigerant, pipes and motors) also affects its efficiency.
7.Close curtains or blinds over windows during the hottest part of the day, or use solar window film, especially for west-facing windows, to keep the house cool.
