The use of more efficient components may cause the air
conditioner to run longer than an older model, but the total
energy consumption will be less. Newer air conditioners do not
emit the “blast” of cold air you may be accustomed to from older
air conditioners, but this is not an indication of lesser cooling
capacity or efficiency. Refer to the efficiency rating (EER) and
capacity rating (in Btu/h) marked on the air conditioner.
Use exhaust vent fans while cooking or bathing and try not to
use heatproducing appliances during the hottest part of the day.
A higher capacity air conditioner may be required, depending on
the size of the room being cooled.
Check the cooling capabilities of your room air conditioner.
Room air conditioners are not designed to cool multiple rooms.
