Please.
Turn it up when you’re leaving.
Electricity’s too good to waste.
Like to save a little money at home when you’re
going out for the day? Leave the cool inside. Close
windows and doors, draw draperies and turn the air
conditioning a few degrees higher. But don't turn it
off completely, or extra cooling power will be needed
when you return.
For everyday economy, try setting the thermostat
at 78 degrees. That may sound a bit warm, but most
people find it comfortable. And each degree below
that requires five percent more electricity. In hot
weather, air conditioning can account for 50 percent
of your electric bill. Rates are higher in summer, too,
for monthly use above 600 kilowatt-hours.
II you want to cut cooling costs and conserve
energy, good insulation is also very important. So
lire c can filters and proper maintenance of cooling
equipment. You can help, as well, by making a
conscious effort to use electricity wisely.
It’s too good to waste.
