Do You Turn on your Air Conditioner 7/24 in the Summer?

We have our A/C set at 77-80 degrees all day & night during the summer. We do run ceiling fans in our living room and the 2 bedrooms.

Never. I love the heat. I don't even like fans on. We turn it on for a little while in the hottest part of the day in order to make sure that it cools down a bit for sleeping, but we seldom run it for more than a few hours and never continuously.

I also do that... use electric fan during the day... then turn on the air conditioning for like 5 hours at night... that way, my baby and i will get a good night sleep without worrying about the very expensive electricity bill... but for the past few days... there was no need for me to turn on the airconditioning because the typhoon made it cold enough at night for me to just turn on the electict fan...

Hello wondericequeen, I don't. One of the reason is that I cannot stand the cold. As you know, I have a joint pain and whenever it is cold, I will feel very very painful. I always sleep with my socks on and my blanket - doesn't matter whether it is cold or hot.

i cant sleep if its over 70 degrees and i have a hard time breathing if its too hot.. i keep mine on 68-70 all day and night but i have to or i overheat.. it might be the meds im on but im burning up all the time

Well, using electric fans than air conditioners can definitely save you money on your electric bills since they consume less energy and is more practical nowadays. I usually just turn on my air conditioner when it's really hot. And when i do, i always make it sure to use the timer and adjust the thermostat to 80 degrees. I also clean the filters every 2 weeks to make sure that my air conditioner would work as effectively as it should.

No, I won't turn on my air conditioner 1/24 in summer as it's not necessary. Actually these days it's becoming hot. Since the heavy rain in the past days, the temperature isn't hot. But it seems the summer finally arrives since there is no rain from Saturday. We will turn on our air conditioner some times. And sometimes we turn on the fan instead because it saves the electricity. I love China

We have to run the AC all the time here. It's not even optional. It's so hot, near 100 degrees daily. So we'd burn up if not for our window AC units.

We do leave our air conditioning on all summer as we live in a hot summer heat. There would be no surviving without it. We do try to leave it set on 78 degrees or so. Thus, it's not freezing cold. When we are gone all day, we sometimes turn it up so the air conditioning will run less often. Definitely, I've got to have air conditioning on when I'm trying to sleep in a really warm climate.

I dont turn it on the whole day. then who will pay the PG&E bill :-). I open the windows and patio door and I used table fans and ceiling fans. Also using AC always is not good for health too.

i would not keep it on for whole day. i would swtich on switch off and use table fans instead also. coz then who would pay the electricity . best is using table fan

ya.... i too will turn on it. because the whether plays its role against.. us. thats y./..
