Hi, iam Dorothy Martin, Enjoy your time-off from me!
Hey there! It’s that time of year again - winter is here and it’s time to start thinking about running your air conditioner. Sure, you might be tempted to just turn it off and save some money, but that could end up costing you more in the long run. Here are a few reasons why you shouldn’t run your AC in the winter.
Why You Shouldn’T Run The Ac In Winter? [Solved]
Don’t try running an air conditioning unit in cold weather. Most modern home units have sensors that stop it from running, as a safeguard. But if you’ve got an older one without those sensors, it might try to run and either not work properly or get damaged.
Check the Temperature: Before running your air conditioner in winter, check the temperature outside. If it is below 60 degrees Fahrenheit, then running your AC may not be necessary.
Change Your Thermostat Settings: During winter months, you should adjust your thermostat to a lower temperature setting than you would during summer months. This will help reduce energy costs and keep your home comfortable without having to run the AC unit.
Seal Air Leaks: Make sure that all windows and doors are properly sealed so that cold air does not enter the home and cause an uncomfortable environment for you and your family members.
Use Fans: Utilizing fans can help circulate warm air throughout the house without having to use an AC unit in winter months.
Invest in Insulation: Adding insulation to walls and ceilings can help keep warm air inside of a home during colder months, reducing the need for an AC unit to be used as often or at all during wintertime temperatures
You shouldn’t run in the winter. It’s too cold and icy, so it’s not safe. Plus, you could slip and hurt yourself! Better to stay inside where it’s warm and cozy.
