How to Use Your Air Con in the Winter?
by John Cina seoAir conditioning is a necessary
requirement during the summers. However, did you know that your air con can be
of use to you in winter too? Yes, it can help keep the temperature warm inside
the home provided it has a heat pump. Such air conditioners are a bit expensive but they are
twice as effective. They not only keep you cool during the summer months but
also offer you heat during the winter chills. You do need to understand how you
can take advantage of this dual feature of your air con. In this article, we
will discuss how you should use your air con in the winter.
Use it as a Dehumidifier
In winter, it is natural for
moisture to develop on your windows and doors. The reason for this is the
humidity in the air that collects on these surfaces and stays there. This can
be a nuisance for you and it can make the windows look foggy. You can’t wipe
off the moisture every time because it soon becomes an unending chore due to
the cold temperatures. Running your air conditioner in the winter season can
help you dehumidify the air. This would instantly solve the humidity issue so
your windows and doors remain moisture-free throughout the winter season.
Cover the AC’s Fan
If your AC’s fan is located on the
outside then you should make sure that it is covered during the winters. This
is necessary because ice can form on the blades of the fan and stop them from
moving freely. This can have a negative impact on the AC’s performance making it much harder for it to do
its job properly. So, it is a good idea to have a cover placed on the fan to
stop ice from forming inside it. Additionally, it is also recommended to check
up on the fan every now and then to ensure its blades haven’t frosted over and
are working properly. If you are struggling to find the source of the problem,
you may want to consider getting a professional opinion.
