If you are also troubled by the increasing bill of Air Conditioner (AC), this news is for you. We are going to tell you some tricks which you can use to reduce the AC bill and save money every month. However, running the AC for several hours day and night is having a direct impact on the pockets of the people. AC gives relief from the heat, but also raises the electricity bill.
Summer is at its peak at this time. The day temperature has crossed 42 degrees Celsius in many cities. The Meteorological Department (IMD) has also indicated that the heat will increase further in the next few days. In such a situation, to avoid any trouble, most of the people imprisoned themselves in their homes, and are going out only when there is very important work.
Due to this, both the use of air conditioners (AC) and the consumption of electricity have increased. Experts say some people believe that the lower the temperature of the air conditioner, the cooler it will get. However, this is not entirely correct. In order to cool the room as quickly as possible, people often set the AC to 18° C or less, which puts a lot of load on the AC.
According to the Bureau of Energy Efficiency, the average temperature of the air conditioner is 24 degrees Celsius. This temperature is also right and comfortable for the human body. According to research, every single degree of temperature raised in the air conditioner also saves about 6 percent electricity.
In such a situation, to cut down on the electricity bill, keep the average temperature of the air conditioner at 24° C instead of 18° C. Experts say that while buying AC or any electronic appliance, special care should be taken for its rating. Rating is directly related to power consumption. The higher the rating of the device, the lower will be the electricity bill. The air conditioner with a 5-star rating cools your room most effectively and also minimizes power consumption.
