When the summer heat intensifies, the allure of a frosty air conditioner cranked to its lowest setting becomes undeniable. But before you blast yourself with an arctic wind, consider the benefits of keeping your AC at a moderate 24°C.

Striking this balance between comfort and efficiency offers a multitude of advantages, making it a win-win situation for your wallet and well-being.

Benefits of keeping your AC at 24°C

  • Reduced energy consumption: The lower the temperature you set your AC, the harder it works to maintain that level. Setting it to 24°C significantly reduces the workload on your unit, leading to substantial energy savings. Studies suggest that raising the temperature by just 1°C can result in a 6% decrease in energy consumption.
  • Lower electricity bills: By using less energy, your AC translates to lower electricity bills. This translates to real financial savings, especially during peak summer months when energy costs can soar.
  • Enhanced comfort: Extremely cold temperatures can be counterproductive. A 24°C setting provides a comfortable cool environment without the drastic change that can lead to chills and discomfort.

Logic behind setting your AC at 24°C

  • The science of body temperature: Our bodies naturally maintain an internal temperature of around 37°C. A 24°C environment provides a comfortable buffer zone, allowing our bodies to regulate temperature efficiently without working overtime.
  • Humidity matters: Extremely cold AC settings can create dry air, which can exacerbate skin and respiratory problems. A 24°C setting helps maintain a more balanced level of humidity, promoting overall comfort and potentially reducing health concerns.
  • Environmental impact: Lower energy consumption translates to a reduced carbon footprint. By setting your AC to 24°C, you're not just saving money; you're also contributing to a greener environment.
