Every summer brings with it the challenge of balancing comfort and cost. However, there\u2019s one surefire way of having your cake and eating it too: Set your air conditioner to 24 degrees Celsius. In this article, we\u2019ll take a closer look at all the benefits of maintaining this temperature in your home, as well as provide helpful tips on how to save energy and stay cool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

General Thermostat Settings for Summer<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Striking that perfect balance between keeping you comfortable and keeping costs down is a thermostat setting that usually falls somewhere between 24 and 26 degrees Celsius. It\u2019s important to keep in mind that setting it lower than what you need won\u2019t cause the room to cool faster; it just drives up your bill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Optimal Comfort <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

We all know how Goldilocks feels about porridge too hot or too cold is never enjoyable. But at exactly 24 degrees, rest assured you\u2019ll be enjoying comfort no matter what. This beautifully moderate temperature allows your body to adjust naturally without having to fight off overheating or shivering because it\u2019s too cold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You Save Energy, You Save Money <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Air conditioners that run constantly can be huge energy hogs but not if they\u2019re set at 24 degrees. Studies have shown that units running at this temperature last longer than those set lower; and it also helps in saving electricity over time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Helping Mother Earth <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Paying less isn\u2019t the only upside when consuming less energy you also help reduce greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs) and slow climate change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Proper Maintenance <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If you want your cooling experience with an air conditioner set at 24 degrees to be top-notch, then proper maintenance is the key. Take out and clean your air filters every month, insulate your doors and windows, and bring in a professional at least once a year to give it a look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Wind-Chill Effect <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Positioning ceiling fans to spin counterclockwise does more than you\u2019d think. Because this motion helps cool you down even more while your A\/C is set at 24 degrees it creates somewhat of a wind-chill effect that makes the room feel a lot cooler than it actually is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Say Goodbye to Heat<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Have lamps? Computers? Televisions? Anything else that gives off heat? While they might not seem like much on their own, these devices add up to extra work on your A\/C for no good reason. Close curtains or blinds when the sun is strongest during the day so direct sunlight doesn\u2019t warm up your space any further.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Expert Advice: Research and Recommendations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Efficiency Guidelines<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

India\u2019s Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE) recommends setting air conditioners to 24 degrees Celsius or higher if you can bear it in order to promote energy efficiency and take some demand off the power grid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Health Concerns<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Cranking down the AC doesn\u2019t just blow through energy it can also cause headaches, respiratory problems and dry skin. By keeping it at 24\u00b0C where you\u2019re comfortable, you\u2019ll skip all those health issues as well as long-term wear on your equipment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
