Reducing energy consumption during the dog days of summer does not mean you have to turn off your air conditioner on sultry summer nights. Closing the shades during the daytime hours can keep sun from coming in and heating up your home, making it easier for your air conditioner to maintain a cooler temperature. Routinely cleaning the air conditioner’s filters is another way to reduce energy consumption, as clean filters will ensure the unit does not have to work as hard to maintain a cool temperature.
