Summer is fast approaching and soon we will be facing those uncomfortably hot temperatures. We’re often teased with a sprinkle of summer in April and May, and for some, that is reason enough to put on their shorts and crank the air conditioning.
We’re all about conserving energy, saving money and living comfortably here at A1. Because of this, we have set out on a quest to find the ideal time to turn on your air conditioner.
What do the experts say?
We will use the World Health Organizations (WHO) standards for a healthy indoor temperature to find out. The WHO recommends 18C as a minimum for indoor temperature but recommends 21C if there are any children or elderly people in the home. Overall, the range of temperatures they deem safe is 18C to 22C, but we’ll stick with the 21C.
