Some strategies to reduce energy consumption while using air conditioning in the summer include setting the temperature to an appropriate level, using natural cooling methods such as opening windows and doors to make use of cross-ventilation and shifting the temperature setting throughout the day, using a programmable thermostat which can automatically regulate temperatures when no one is at home or before you awake, regularly maintaining your AC unit for improved efficiency, and considering alternative forms of cooling such as evaporative coolers.
