Ive Heard Central Air Conditioning Is Expensive To Run. How Much Will My Power Bills Increase?
This depends on the SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) air conditioner. The higher the SEER the less money it costs to run. If you have a old 8 SEER air conditioner that costs you $100.00 a month to operate and you upgraded to a 19 SEER air conditioner you would save $59.00 a month. Your bill would be $41.00 a month An electronic thermostat that is preprogrammed to go up and down at certain times of the day and night, (such as down while you are at work and back up just before you come home) will also save you a lot of money.
