Saving energy

Along with using POWER SAVER, there are many things you can do to help save energy.

Improve your home's insulation. Seal doors and windows. Close fireplace flue.

Close blinds or drapes on the sunny side of your house. Add awnings.

Make sure drapes or furniture do not block airflow from your air conditioner.

Turn lights and appliances off when they are not needed.

Ventilate your attic. High temperatures in the attic add to the air conditioner's cooling load.

Try not to use heat-producing appliances during the hottest part of the day.

Keep heat registers and cool-air returns closed.

Use exhaust vent fans while cooking, doing laundry, or bathing.

Normal operating sounds

When your air conditioner is operating normally, you may hear sounds such as:

Droplets of water hitting the condenser, causing a “pinging” or “clicking” sound. The water droplets help cool the condenser.

Air movement from the fan.

Clicks from the thermostat cycle.

Vibrations or noise due to poor wall or window construction.

A high-pitched hum or pulsating noise caused by the modern high-efficiency compressor cycling on and off.

NOTE: In the event of a power failure, your air conditioner will operate at the previous settings when the power is restored.
