Go Easy on the AC Your home is so cool at 24 degrees!

We need to set the thermostat at 20 to get it this cold. How is that possible?

Dad cleans the AC vents monthly for maximum airflow. That lets the AC operate more efficiently!

My dad doesn’t do that, I wish he did.

Mom also leaves cooking for cooler times of the day, so there’s isn’t too much heat in the house.

Well here’s something you can’t blame on your mom or dad – I never see you shut the windows when you turn on the AC! Guilty as accused.

That’s a swell idea. I should tell my mom about that.
