3 Great Ways To Get Apartments Summer Ready in Hartford, CT
Are you looking ahead at the heat of the summer and wondering how best to keep your home in Hartford, CT, cool and comfortable? Around Northwoods Apartments, there are several things you can do to get ready for summer that are simple and even fun. Let's start with some practical strategies that are easy to adopt and then explore the fun summer activity of swimming outdoors.
1. Control Indoor Temperature
According to the U.S. Department of Energy: you should set your thermostat to 78 degrees while you’re at home. Setting your inside temperature closer to the outside temperature slows down the heat flow into your home and makes it easier for your A/C to work efficiently.
If you use a programmable thermostat, you can even set it seven to ten degrees higher while you’re at work to save on your electricity bill. Then, your system will automatically start cooling your house before you get home. However, if you have pets that stay at home while you are out, keep your home cool enough so they stay comfortable.
2. Ensure Air Conditioner is Running Efficiently
If you’re setting your thermostat higher but not seeing your electric bill go down, your air conditioner may not be running efficiently. In addition, minor issues such as poor insulation, overgrown landscaping around an outdoor air conditioner unit, or leaky air ducts can affect efficiency.
At Northwoods, all the units for rent include central air conditioning while an HVAC expert regularly maintains them, ensuring they work at their best.
3. Cool Off In Style
What could be a more summer-like activity than swimming outdoors? As a Northwoods Apartments resident, you have the luxury of cooling off in style at two private pools. You can also enjoy a yoga class or racquetball match before slipping into the calm and clear waters for a refreshing dip.
