Reducing the Load on Your Central Air Conditioner |
You can reduce the load on your air conditioning system with a few simple measures. First, be sure to clean or replace your furnace filters per the manufacturer's recommendations.
To reduce heat gain, pull drapes or shades over sun-facing windows. Stir up breezes using a whole-house fan or ceiling fans; or circulate air using the "Fan Only" setting on your heating system. When possible, minimize mid-day activities that add humidity to the air, such as washing and drying clothes, showering, and cooking. When doing these activities, use ventilating fans.
