Getting there by Train. Birmingham International railway station is directly linked to the airport passenger Terminals by SkyRail. The SkyRail is free, operates about every 2 minutes when the rail station is open and the journey takes less than 2 minutes.
Set the Thermostat to the Best Temperature. Turning your thermostat to 78 degrees Fahrenheit is the best setting for your air conditioner during warmer months. Reducing your home's temperature 72 degrees Fahrenheit could increase your cooling costs 12 to 47 percent.
Air conditioner units have limits to their thermostat settings. The low end of the thermostat peaks out at approximately 60 degrees Fahrenheit for most units, so if the weather outside is colder than 60 degrees Fahrenheit, opening a window to allow the outside air to cool the room is more efficient.
