As temperatures soar this summer season you’d do well to keep it under control. Technology plays a vital role in cooling down your Grand Zyon condo, from installing smart blinds to thermostat regulation. Here are five tips you can follow.
Plan Ahead- Check the Upcoming Week’s Temperature
Stay ahead of the heat and give your smartphone’s weather app a quick check for next week. You should be aware of any spikes or possible heat waves and plan accordingly. For instance, it might be wiser to stay home than go out for a run on certain days.
Regulate the Thermostat to Save Energy
You can be smart in consuming energy and keeping your bills from skyrocketing through the roof with this tip. It would be better if you had a smart thermostat that automatically adjusts during the day. If not, you can simply make the adjustments yourself, e.g., lower temperature during the day and higher at night when things cool down.
Schedule a Service Call via an App
Dust and dirt can seriously hamper your air conditioner’s performance. Your AC will work harder in summer, so it’s best to have it cleaned or repaired before the season starts. Browse for AC cleaning services near you using a browser or an app.
Consider Smart Blinds
Smart blinds are like smart thermostats in that you can program them to close in the afternoons and open in the evenings. When the sun’s rays are mercilessly beating down, you’d want them closed to keep the heat away from inside your house.
Circulate the Air with Additional Smart Fans
Running a fan at low is cheaper than increasing your AC’s power. The fan will help circulate air and create a breeze or a cooling effect. A ceiling fan can work wonders as well in bringing the temperature down a few degrees.
