Energy-Saving Tips
Your Room Air Conditioner is designed to be
highly efficient in energy savings.
Follow these recommendations for greater efficiency.
1. Select thermostat setting that suits your
comfort needs and leave thermostat at that
chosen setting.
2. The filter is very efficient in removing airborne
particles. Keep air filter clean. Normally, filter
should be cleaned every 2 weeks. More
frequent cleaning may be necessary depending
on indoor air quality.
3. Use drapes, curtains, or shades to keep
direct sunlight from heating room, but DO NOT
obstruct the air conditioner. Allow air to circulate
around the unit without obstruction.
4. Start your air conditioner before outdoor air
becomes hot and uncomfortable. This avoids an
initial period of discomfort while unit is cooling
off the room.
5. When outdoor temperatures are cool enough,
use HIGH or LOW FAN only. This circulates
indoor air, providing some cooling comfort, and
utilizes less electricity than when operating on a
cooling setting.
