Full-time Air Conditioning:
An Ultra-Expensive Luxury
Many Australian
homeowners run their ducted air conditioning (or window units)
24/7 during those hot, humid summer
days.
Seems like a logical approach to staying cool, right? But, hold
on…
While running your air conditioning day and night keeps family
members cool and comfortable, at a typical cost of $1.50 - $3.00
an hour, you pay an extremely high cost in electrical power. (Frankly,
this is the kind of common, careless use of air conditioning that
creates heart stopping electricity that can run into hundreds
or even thousands of dollars a year!)
Based on comparative running costs, it’s easy to see how the electricity bills rise out of control when air conditioning is used continually.
