Air conditioning is a common electrical appliance in modern households today. Air conditioning can be used in all four seasons, especially during hot weather or on humid days like this.
When using the air conditioner remote control, the most commonly used buttons are On/Off (or Power), temperature increase/decrease buttons, and fan mode adjustment button. Very few people pay attention to the Sleep button on the air conditioner remote.
Important functions to note when using the air conditioner
When using this button, the Sleep mode is set with significant meaning, helping the air conditioner operate more effectively with a special setting mechanism to balance the room temperature with the body temperature, providing a relaxed feeling for users during sleep. Therefore, it plays a role in saving energy and protecting the special health of the air conditioner, bringing a good and safe sleep for humans.
Specifically, when setting the Sleep mode, the room temperature will automatically change over time to match the environmental temperature, helping users avoid feeling cold.
When pressing the Sleep button, usually after 30 minutes or an hour, the temperature will increase by one degree, then continue to increase to two degrees and maintain that temperature throughout the night. For example, before going to sleep, you set the temperature at 25 degrees Celsius, then after half an hour or an hour, the air conditioner will increase to 26 degrees. And after about 2 hours, it will continue to increase to 28 degrees, balancing with the outside temperature.
This is a safe temperature level that helps you stay healthy and have a good night’s sleep, especially for young children. In addition, setting the Sleep mode with just enough temperature will reduce your electricity bill.
Principles of using air conditioning to save power
Principles of using air conditioning to save power
Choose air conditioning with suitable capacity
You need to calculate the appropriate capacity of the air conditioner based on the room area to choose an air conditioner with enough cooling capacity and energy-saving during use. Excessive capacity will waste power, and insufficient capacity will not guarantee cooling ability. An air conditioner with suitable capacity also helps the machine operate stably and last longer.
Do not turn the air conditioner on and off constantly
The first way to use air conditioning to save power is to get rid of the habit of turning the air conditioner on and off constantly. Many people often have the habit of turning on the air conditioner to make it very cold, then turn it off and use a fan, and turn it back on when feeling hot. They think that doing so will save electricity.
However, this is a harmful practice that not only wastes more electricity but also quickly damages the air conditioner. Because every time it restarts, the machine needs to consume a lot of energy to cool down again from the beginning, causing it to deteriorate faster.
Ensure the air-conditioned area is sealed off
When using the air conditioner, you should close windows, doors to prevent cold air from escaping, otherwise the machine will work harder to maintain the set temperature. If your window is exposed to direct sunlight, you should install blinds to limit the increase in room temperature.
Do not turn on the air conditioner 24/7
You should not turn on the air conditioner 24/7, even on hot days because staying in an air-conditioned environment for a long time can cause your body to lose water, dry skin, dry respiratory glands, etc. Moreover, turning on the air conditioner all day will significantly increase the electricity bill, and the internal parts of the machine will be worn out, reducing the lifespan of the product.
Therefore, you should use a fan instead of the air conditioner on less hot days to save electricity and maintain air circulation in the room.
Regularly clean and maintain the air conditioner
An air conditioner that has been operating for a long time will accumulate a lot of dust, and its components need to be repaired or replaced. Regular cleaning and maintenance help your air conditioner cool down quickly, operate stably, durable, and save energy.
Turn off the air conditioner 30 minutes before leaving
30 minutes is enough time for you to still feel comfortable and the room temperature has not changed too much. Therefore, if you don’t need to use it, preparing to go out, turn off the air conditioner about 30 minutes before leaving to maximize the remaining cool air in the room.
