Save a click: Experts say the most efficient way to use air conditioning is to raise the thermostat by 7–10 °F for about eight hours a day, rather than shutting it off completely.
This strategy can cut annual cooling costs by up to 10%, according to the U.S. Department of Energy.
Turning AC fully off risks humidity buildup, mold growth, and strain on equipment, especially in humid climates.
Smart thermostats are recommended since they automatically adjust based on occupancy and can optimize energy savings.
