Re: Power Costs
Must be living like an eskimo there Vern as set my AC at 26 and 27 if it is a really hot day. Was explained to me that by choosing a low temp the AC will never get it down to that and will be chewing up power all day long. I find that with my settings the AC is not running all day and therefore cuts down costs. I also shut of any rooms that I am not using plus turn of those zones as well (ducted). Also have a small AC in the sun room (is that an oximoron) so of a night we bunker down there to watch the tube. So Vern might pay to up the temps mate because when temps are around the 40 mark that is still a big reduction and to be honest about it I reckon that our house feels cooler because the AC gets a rest now and then to work at its optimum. Same in winter I set the temp at around 17
That's the way the mop flops.
