ALEM remember how to use correct and efficient Air Conditioning

The Department of Environment, through the Local Agency for Energy and Climate Change (ALEM) encourages Murcia to use air conditioning as efficiently as possible.

This has produced a simple Ten Commandments can be found on the web www.energiamurcia.es:

ØAjuste air conditioning at 25 º -26 º.

For every degree you drop will consume between 5 and 8% more energy.

In addition, over-cooling the atmosphere is harmful to health.

OWhen turn the air conditioner, do not set the thermostat at a temperature lower than desired: not cool faster and is a waste of power consumption.

ØProcure that gives the sun as much as possible to the outdoor units of air conditioning equipment and are well ventilated.

Ono sure to turn the air conditioner when no one in the room.

Use energy-saving mechanisms that new technologies offer when no one in the room.

Oppose a thermometer if your air conditioner does not have.

Will save by controlling the temperature of the room.

Free ØMantenga vents.

Make sure the air inlets and outlets of air conditioning are not being blocked.

OThe equipment maintenance and cleaning are essential for optimum performance.

Dirty air filters affect the performance and consume energy.

Clean once every two weeks or at least once a month.

ØVentile the home or office in the cooler hours (10 minutes is sufficient in the early hours of the morning and at night) to avoid overheating in the middle of the day, where the highest temperatures are recorded.

While the unit is operating, avoid opening doors and windows.

Ö home, use good insulation to prevent energy loss.

A house well insulated and thermally conditioned, ensures lower energy expenditure throughout the year.

Ö The effect of evaporative cooling of the atmosphere live plants.

Place them in front of windows and beside the doors.
