How to run AC units efficiently at home or office? PART 3

First you must understand the approximate temperature you feel comfortable at. Then set the temperature to a value equal to or slightly higher than that. Otherwise you suffer like as described above. If you do not know your preferred temperature, find it out. It is simple, but requires a little patience and time. First set the thermostat, say at about 24 ˚ C if there is any marking on the thermostat, or set the pointer of the thermostat to roughly point to 1 ‘O clock position of your clock! Run the unit for a reasonable time, say one day at least. If you feel you require more cooling, then set it at say 23 ˚ C or point it to 2 ‘O clock position (Rotate it to your right). If you feel too cold, then do the opposite. Set it close to 12 ‘O clock position or at 25 ˚ C. After doing such adjustment, again allow the unit to run at least for a day. Then if you still feel not satisfied, repeat the above steps in the direction desired by you. Till you finally feel satisfied.

Now as soon as your temperature is reached in the room, no more cooling is delivered to you as the thermostat would have ordered the compressor to shut off, so you feel comfortable. As soon as the temperature rises above your preferred temperature the compressor again starts because of the command from the thermostat and the process is repeated.

Now there are a few problems with these units. What are they? We will see it in next part.
