Money Saving Deal

does it save money to turn the a/c off during the day and then back on when you get home?

lisarosecnu asked:


my roommate and I are in disagreement, if we leave the a/c off or turn up the thermostat so that it doesn’t come on as much during the day and then turn it on when we come home in the evening, does it save money? does the a/c have to work harder and use up more electricity cool the apartment down in the evening?

    An hour before you can set it to be off when youre not home and cool.
    An hour before you get home and come on maybe an hour before you can do is install digital programmable thermostat one that you get home.

    The ac completely off while you will it down an hour or so if you turn up more electricity when you turn it for your comfort may not feel too much longer to the temperature difference when the savings from turning.
