Don’t forget the filters: the key to an energy efficient home
It’s that time of year when we like to get organised. We clean out our wardrobes, give the kitchen cupboards a good scrub and throw out the clutter we’ve accumulated. One thing that always gets neglected though, is our air conditioner filters. Yes, they are only a small component of a bigger unit, but they play a very important role. These filters are the key to clean air, lower running costs and better energy efficiency for your home.
Sizing your air con system: why bigger isn’t always better
When it comes to air conditioners, there’s no such thing as ‘one-size-fits-all’. While many people believe that a bigger unit will be more effective, this isn’t always the case – and it’s a misconception that can lead to pretty scary electricity bills! The trick is finding a unit that’s just right for your individual situation, factoring in the size of your space, and your lifestyle.
The noise factor: why it’s important both indoors and out
When we think about air conditioners, the main issues that spring to mind are comfort levels and running cost. However, there is one other factor that can drastically affect the comfort of an air-conditioned environment: noise. Let’s not forget that beneath the surface, an air conditioner is working hard to function – and it’s difficult for any machine to do this in complete silence. However, there are some things you can do to keep your air con noise to a minimum (and trust us, both your family and your neighbours will thank you for it).
Air conditioning terminology - the words you need to know
As with anything technical, air conditioning involves a fair bit of specialised terminology. If you’ve been looking for a unit or talking to a repairman, you may have found yourself wondering what on earth it all means! With this in mind, we’ve compiled a glossary of the most commonly used words, phrases and terms that crop up when you’re talking air conditioning. Brush up on these terms and you’ll find it much easier to understand what can seem like a foreign language.
Degrees of difference - how small changes in temperature can have a big impact
If you’ve ever worked in a big office, chances are you’ll be no stranger to that too-hot or too-cold feeling when the air conditioning isn’t quite right. But while we all know how it affects our comfort, air temperature actually has a much bigger impact than you may have realised. Here are a few reasons why it’s worth making sure you’ve got the balance right in your own home.
