As we all are aware of the fact the spring season has almost come to an end and summer is knocking at the door, so let’s revise all the activities that we can change a little to save our environment and planet as much as it is in our hands.
As soon as summer arrives, the only thing which comes to our mind is the Air Conditioner, it has become the most important and a basic necessity of our daily lifestyles. The more we use AC, the more our environment gets affected. So to use this equipment effectively yet save our environment is our primary duty.
Below are the list of things to be followed for a better summer environment –
- The minimum temperature of an AC should be set at 24° and not below that, what we do, we set it on 16° and then use a blanket over it, which harms our health as well the environment too. As the room becomes cooler in the lower AC temperatures, it warms the outside environment by throwing off the warm air outside, even the city temperature can rise by 3° to 5° by such activity. So to make sure to maintain a minimum temperature of 24° degrees and not lower to that. This also saves our electricity bill.
- All the ACs nowadays have the feature of sleep mode, so we should always try and use that feature and set the AC on sleep mode after 2 or a maximum of 3 hours of continuous running it automatically gets switched off in the night. To save the heat in the environment also to save electricity bill, it also strengthens the life of an AC too.
- If possible, switch over to an air cooler than using an air conditioner, because air coolers are a better option to be availed than air conditioners, it helps the environment to be less populated than compared to air conditioners.
- Get your ACs servicing regularly done, by cleaning it and cleaning the filter regularly, it’s effective also reduces the electricity bills.
- Use of light paint colors on the wall, the make the environment cool all the time, plant more plants in the balcony and of course plant more trees everywhere, and GO GREEN to save the mother nature.
