5 Ways to Cut AC Costs This Summer Without Sacrificing Comfort

1. Smart Thermostat Programming

Set your thermostat to 78°F when home and 85°F when away. Every degree above 78 saves 3-5% on cooling costs. Use programmable schedules or Wi-Fi thermostats like Nest for automatic adjustments.

2. Optimize Airflow

Ensure vents are unobstructed and fans rotate counterclockwise in summer. Ceiling fans allow you to raise the thermostat 4°F without discomfort.
