Understanding Florida's Climate Challenges & Impact on Air Conditioning
Florida's subtropical climate holds many challenges when it comes to maintaining a comfortable indoor living environment. With the region’s hot, humid summers and mild winters, homeowners have to rely heavily on their air conditioning systems to keep their homes cool and comfortable. However, the intense heat and humidity can put a strain on HVAC equipment, leading to high energy consumption and potential breakdowns.
Tips from Graham Heating & Air Conditioning for Keeping Your Home Cool and Comfortable
Optimize Your Thermostat Settings
Set your thermostat to the highest comfortable temperature, typically around 78°F. For every degree you lower the thermostat, you can increase your energy costs by up to 3%.
Ensure Proper Insulation and Sealing
Proper insulation and sealing of your home's walls, attic, windows, and doors helps to keep hot air out and cool air in. Seal any cracks or gaps around windows, doors, and electrical outlets to prevent air leaks.
Use Ceiling Fans and Ventilation
Ceiling fans help to circulate the air and make you feel cooler without lowering the thermostat. Use them to create a cooling breeze. Proper ventilation, such as exhaust fans in bathrooms and kitchens, helps to remove hot air and humidity from your home.
Call Air Conditioning Company & Schedule Regular Air Filter Replacements
Regular maintenance by a professional HVAC company like Graham Heating & Air Conditioning is vital if you want to keep your system running efficiently. They can clean coils, check refrigerant levels, and ensure all components are functioning properly. Replace air filters monthly during peak usage to maintain airflow and indoor air quality.
Consider Upgrading to Energy-Efficient Systems
If your air conditioner is more than 10 years old, consider upgrading to a newer, more energy-efficient model. High-efficiency systems use less energy, saving you money on utility bills.
