The Orlando Sentinel recently reported that the Orlando area is number three in the nation for homeowners who are upside down with their home mortgage. Money is tight so most people are looking for ways to cut back on their monthly bills. One of the easiest ways to save is by changing your air conditioning habits.
Florida Power and Light recommends that every Orlando area home owner apply the following tips:
1. Keep your air conditioner’s thermostat set at seventy eight degrees. Leave the fan switch set on “auto.”
2.Cool your home only when you're there. When you leave for the day, move the conditioner’s thermostat up to eighty two degrees and turn it back down to seventy eight degrees when you come back. It costs a lot less to bring the temperature down to seventy eight than it does to keep it at seventy eight all day.
3.Consider having a programmable thermostat installed by a licensed air conditioning contractor. A programmable thermostat can automatically change your temperature settings based on your family’s lifestyle. Your home will be nice and cool whenever you're there...and you won't be wasting money when you're not.
These tips can result in immediate and ongoing savings for every Orlando home owner!
