[quote=Anonymous]http://saveenergy.about.com/od/homecooling/tp/CoolingCosts.htm "6. Set the Thermostat to the Best Temperature Turning your thermostat to 78 degrees Fahrenheit is the best setting for your air conditioner during warmer months. Reducing your home's temperature 72 degrees Fahrenheit could increase your cooling costs 12 to 47 percent. Also remember, setting it really low at first will not help your home cool faster. It will use more energy and if your forget to adjust it, you will be running far less efficiently than you think." http://news.consumerreports.org/home/2010/07/ideal-temperature-for-air-conditioning-78-degrees-heat-wave-best-air-conditioners-review.html http://www.energysavers.gov/your_home/space_heating_cooling/index.cfm/mytopic=12720 Google it folks... over and over again you will see that the recommended setting for AC is 78.[/quote]
