Save On Electricity This Summer
The temperatures are ticking up fast reaching the 90's and even into
the 100's in some places. For those who have air conditioning and for those who wish they had it, there is a simple and inexpensive answer
to high summer electric bills -- window fans. Electric fans can be a less expensive and more Earth-friendly alternative to
supplement or even replace air conditioning, provided you use them properly. The best application for window fans is in areas and seasons
when it is hot during the day and cool and dry at night. The object is to cool the house with window fans during the night, using outside
air, to delay or even eliminate turning on the air conditioner during the day, when the window fans are removed. Since this method uses
electricity at night instead of during peak usage during the day, it can also help in areas subject to electricity blackouts. And both
window fans and free standing fans that can be used anywhere in the house, including in windows, to circulate air, which makes it feel
cooler, are relatively cheap. They are readily available at places like Home Depot and Lowe's for $10.00 or less.
