Why is it so important to raise the thermostats in summer for energy savings?
TXU, a large Texas power company says that for every degree you raise your thermostat, you save 7 percent or more on your energy bill. Therefore, if you raise the thermostat a minimum of 3 degrees, you will have achieved savings of at least 21 percent on energy. Summertime comfort is not only related to the heat but also levels of humidity. The Moisture Filter will improve the air quality, making it feel cooler, crisper and less humid. Even with the thermostat raised a minimum of 3 degrees, people will be comfortable and the energy savings will be realized.
