04. Tips on Using the Air Conditioner

04.01. Operating Tips for Summer

It is recommended to test run your air conditioner a few weeks before the start of summer and make sure it is cooling
sufficiently. If the air conditioner needs servicing, we advise you to have this done before the summer season arrives.
A hot day is forecast for tomorrow, what should you do?
Always start the air conditioner early in the morning and keep the house/office cool. If you try and start the air conditioner
in the afternoon when the house/office is already very hot, it may take a while to cool down. Keep all curtains and windows
closed. Also stop drafts coming in from outside.
If zones have been installed you should turn off any zone that is not being occupied. This will allow higher cooling capacity
for the occupied areas.
Ask your installer for any zoning limitations for your system.
NOTE
Always allow the necessary amount of fresh air into rooms.

04.02. Operating Tips for Winter

It is recommended to test run your air conditioner a few weeks before the start of winter and make sure it is heating
sufficiently. If the air conditioner needs servicing, it is advised you have this done before the winter season arrives.
A cold day is forecast for tomorrow, what should you do?
You can leave the air conditioner running overnight, but lower the set point 2-4
reduce power consumption. This will assist the house/office from becoming too cold overnight and thus enabling the air
conditioner to warm the house/office quicker when you raise the temperature set point back to your usual setting.

04.03. Energy Conservation Tips

For the most efficient operation, keep the windows and doors closed including unused areas where possible. This
approach not only helps to insulate against heat and cold, it also reduces dust, pollen and noise. Occasionally allow
fresh air into rooms and offices that are closed off. When operating your system overnight or when the home/office is
unoccupied it is recommended in heating mode to turn the wall controller temperature down by 2-4
