Plus, the entire house will benefit from having an air conditioner installed too! Read on to discover the benefits of gifting dad an AC system for Father's Day!
Improves Air Quality & Health
- Reduces Allergens: Air conditioners are a lifesaver for allergy sufferers! For one thing, air conditioning means not needing to open windows to cool the house, meaning allergens aren't given a free invitation to invade the home. Additionally, air conditioning uses a filter just like the heater, so allergens and irritants like mold and mildew are stopped from cycling through the cooled air from the air conditioner. Allergy and asthma sufferers are known to improve with cleaner, allergy-reduced air that air conditioning can provide.
- Reduces Humidity: Breathing humid air is hard on the human body. But one of the major benefits of air conditioning is its ability to reduce humidity in the home. Homes should have a relative humidity between 30-50% to make breathing easier and improve the comfort of a house's occupants.
- Reduces Spread of Illness: Air conditioning paired with HEPA filters helps reduce the spread of viruses that thrive in humid, hot air.
- Important Notes on AC Health Help: Air conditioners only help reduce illness if they are properly maintained. A unit that never has its filters clean will not produce cleaner air and may not circulate air well enough to reduce humidity.
Improves Sleep & Productivity
Science has a lot to say about how air conditioners improve sleep and workplace productivity. For every degree over 77 degrees Fahrenheit, productivity drops by 2%! For people working from home, AC can help maintain and improve job productivity!
Additionally, air conditioning helps improve sleep during the summer. Science indicates that the optimal sleeping temperature is around 65 degrees. Sleeping in colder rooms helps people fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer! With air conditioning, homes can be kept at optimal sleep temperatures, ensuring a clearer mind in the morning.
Buying Tip: Choose Energy Efficient Models
When shopping for Father's Day AC options, keep in mind that efficient models will do more for dad than others. In addition to keeping dad cool during the summer, an efficient air conditioner will also reduce the cost of operations and keep energy bills lower, saving dad some money in the long run.
Energy-efficient air conditioners can cut the average AC bill by 50%, so if the house has an older AC model, it may be cost-effective to upgrade to a more energy-efficient model in the long run! Reach out to an AC expert to find the perfect unit for Father's Day! They'll handle the installation and inspection of the unit, too, leaving the kids with only one job: putting a bow on it!
