The temperatures are high and so is the humidity. When you step outside, you\u2019re sure to feel the heat. If you\u2019re looking to stay cool when you\u2019re at home, then you know this starts with having the right air conditioner. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While this is important, the pursuit of comfort doesn\u2019t stop when you install your air conditioner. It\u2019s also important to make sure that you\u2019re running your system properly and paying attention to the status of your home. All these factors are going to determine if you\u2019re getting the right <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.scaran.com\/air-conditioning\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">air conditioning in Staten Island, NY<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let\u2019s discuss some game-changing tips that can help you stay cool for less this summer.\u00a0<\/span><!--more--><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Great Cooling Tips You Need to Know<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here are a few cooling tips you should try out this summer to make sure your air conditioning system is as efficient as possible.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Swap Your Filter<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Make sure that your home\u2019s air conditioning system is properly maintained. All you need to do is swap out your home\u2019s air conditioning filter once a season. We suggest doing this at the start of every season. It\u2019s simple. All you need to do is run out to your local hardware store and pick up a filter. If you\u2019re having trouble actually swapping the filter on your own, we can walk you through it over the phone.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Always Maintain\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Make sure that you maintain your home\u2019s air conditioning system every single spring. We recommend spring because it\u2019s the easiest way to maintain your system <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">before <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">the high heat and hard work of summer. If you want to make your maintenance easy, then we recommend enrolling in our <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.scaran.com\/about\/maintenance\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">maintenance program<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. It will help save you money and make sure that you never forget an appointment.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Use Your Ceiling Fan<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Make sure that you\u2019re getting your ceiling fan into the mix if you\u2019d like to feel cooler while saving money. You can use your air conditioner and ceiling fan together and run your AC system at a lower temperature. Make sure that you remember that a ceiling fan can only cool <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">you<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> rather than the room. There\u2019s no need to run it when you\u2019re not around.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Avoid Heat Build-Up<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Make sure that your home isn\u2019t hotter than it has to be. Save any baking, running of your dryer, or any other work with a heat-burning appliance until later in the day. It\u2019s the best way to avoid inefficiency with your air conditioning system and save yourself money in the process.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Close Curtains, Blinds, Shades, Etc.<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The natural light in your home can raise the internal temperature of your space by a few degrees. While a few degrees might not seem like a lot, it\u2019s enough to trigger your thermostat to kick on your AC unnecessarily. We suggest keeping your home\u2019s internal temperature as low as possible. You can do this by shutting out as much natural light during the height of the day.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>Contact Scaran today to <\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.scaran.com\/contact-us\/service\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><b>schedule an appointment<\/b><\/a><b> with our professionals.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here are a few ways you can save money and stay cool throughout this summer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[70],"tags":[179,88],"class_list":["post-1041","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-air-conditioning-service","tag-ac-tips","tag-staten-island"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.scaran.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1041","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.scaran.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.scaran.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.scaran.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.scaran.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1041"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.scaran.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1041\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1045,"href":"https:\/\/www.scaran.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1041\/revisions\/1045"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.scaran.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1041"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.scaran.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1041"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.scaran.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1041"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
