The jandals will be out in full force and many of us will flock to our beautiful beaches, lakes and rivers to find some relief from the heat. But those perfect clear skies create hot stuffy homes, which is not always something we keep in mind.
Summer is the favourite time of year for many of us and it’s not hard to see why. Day after day of glorious weather is enough to put anyone in a great mood. However, it’s important that your home is a place where you can take a break from the heat of the sun.
Hot days and sticky nights are taken to a whole new level when temperatures are breaking records and, unfortunately, opening the windows and cranking the ceiling fan just won’t cool you down the way you need it to.
To get your home to this point you’re going to need something a little more heavy-duty than conventional cooling devices.
Two words: air-conditioning unit
Nothing compares to an air conditioning unit
Temperatures in 2016 have been approximately one degree warmer than average and it’s predicted that this summer is going to be a ripper. One degree may not sound like a lot but this can have a significant effect on summer temperatures.
When it comes to staying cool, it’s true that nothing compares to an air conditioning unit. You’ve no doubt felt the wonderful effects of air conditioning whilst in the car or in a shop.
Just imagine how good it would feel in your home.
When the house has been shut up all day, arriving home becomes a scramble to open every window and door as quickly as you can. Unfortunately, this just means you’re letting the hot air from outside mix with the hot air inside. Where’s the relief in that?
And let’s not forget about the pollen and dust that can travel great distances in the dry summer weather. As we make a mad dash to open up the house, we also let in all sorts of things that can wreak havoc on hay fever sufferers.
Air conditioning not only offers considerable comfort and whisper quiet units, it also filters harmful allergens that may be present in the air.
With the touch of a button, air conditioning lets you sit back, relax and cool down in a matter of minutes.
Beat the heat anytime, anywhere
Home air conditioning comes with a fair amount of freedom. You don’t need to be getting up and down to change the temperature. In fact, you don’t even need to be at home to do that.
How is that possible?
All units have the option to set a timer for when you want the device to run. Perhaps you want to have short sharp blasts throughout the night, or maybe you want to set it to begin a few minutes before you arrive home. The choice is yours.
And if you want to utilise some of the most cutting-edge technology, you can manage your unit from your smart phone, tablet or online account with Mitsubishi Electric Wi-Fi Control. No matter where you are – running late, at the supermarket, lying in bed – you can control your home’s temperature with a couple of easy steps on your phone.
Get two benefits from one unit
Comfort, efficiency and convenience are some of the great benefits of having air conditioning installed in your home. But the good things don’t stop there!
An air conditioning unit is also a heat pump. So while you’re using it to cool the home in the summer, the same device is used to heat the home in winter. Both settings are quiet, efficient and maintain the level of comfort you desire.
So while you’re tossing up whether it will be right for you to have a heat pump installed this summer, just think of the ongoing use you’re going to get from it. There aren’t many products out there that guarantee such long term benefits.
Heat pumps are an increasingly popular heating and cooling choice. The ability to change the temperature so quickly in any sized area has made heat pumps a favoured option in New Zealand homes and workplaces.
Now is the perfect time to give Heat and Cool a call and have a whisper quiet air conditioning installed. The hot months haven’t quite hit yet but when they do, you will thank your lucky stars you were prepared!
