With the arrival of autumn, the temperature has gradually dropped, and the frequency of air conditioning has also dropped. In some places, the air conditioning has not even been used, and thicker quilts have begun to be covered.
After turning off the air conditioner, the next time you use it will be next summer. In such a long period of time, should the plug of the air conditioner be unplugged? Will
not unplugging it will have any impact on the air conditioner? Let’s learn about it today.
Do not use air conditioners for a long time, should I unplug it?
Generally speaking, our air conditioners are only used frequently in summer. Many families have always been turned off in winter.
But although I can't turn on the air conditioner, many people's air conditioner plugs are still plugged in and never unplugged.
But I learned from a friend who works in a power plant that if you don’t use air conditioners for a long time, it’s best to unplug the plug. Why is this?
1, power-saving
Unplugging the plug can save more power, because although the air conditioner is not operating, if the plug is plugged in, it is also in a standby state.
will consume power when in standby mode. Someone once experimented with it. If a 1P air conditioner is plugged in, it will consume 5 watts of power in a day.
According to this consumption, several kilowatt-hours of electricity will be added in a month, which will invisibly increase our power. Therefore, if you want to save power, it is best to unplug the air conditioner plug.
2, safer
If the plug is not unplugged, the air conditioner will also run all the time, so it is easy to shorten the service life of the air conditioner. For example, if the voltage at home is unstable, it is easy to cause the air conditioner to burn.
or when the electricity used at home is in a dangerous situation, if the plug is not unplugged, it is easy to cause safety hazards, so it is relatively safer to unplug the plug.
Precautions for using air conditioners in autumn
Although many areas have turned off the air conditioners, some areas are still suffering from the damage of autumn tigers, so they still need to turn on the air conditioners from time to time.
But turning on the air conditioner in autumn is different from summer. If you are not careful, it will have an impact on our bodies.
So how should you turn on the air conditioner in autumn so that you can feel cool, but not harm our health?
1. Don’t blow directly
Sometimes the temperature is stuffy. Many people like to blow directly towards the air conditioner when going home, wanting to cool down quickly.
But if the temperature difference is too large, it can easily cause a cold. At the same time, if you blow on the air conditioner for a long time, it will have a greater impact on our joints and can easily cause arthritis.
2. Don’t blow for too long
. It is best not to blow the air conditioner for more than 3-5 hours, otherwise it will easily cause a cold.
In addition, the temperature difference between morning and evening in autumn is relatively large, and the temperature is generally only higher from noon to afternoon.
3. Turn up the temperature
The temperature in autumn still drops. If the temperature is too low when blowing the air conditioner, it is easy to cause a cold.
Therefore, it is best to adjust the air conditioner temperature to 26-28 degrees in autumn, which will make us feel more comfortable.
4. Replenishing moisture
Autumn is already relatively dry. After blowing the air conditioner, it is more likely to cause dry mouth and tongue.
Therefore, we should pay attention to replenishing moisture to avoid getting angry and dry mouth and tongue, so that we can spend autumn more comfortably.
5, regular ventilation
Generally, after turning on the air conditioner, we will close the doors and windows, which will cause the air in the room to not circulate.
causes the bacteria in the air to increase sharply, and the oxygen content in the room will decrease. If you are not careful, you will easily experience dizziness, nasal congestion and other conditions.
Therefore, it is best for us to turn on the air conditioner for 3 hours, and we must open the windows to ventilate for a period of time or go outdoors to avoid suffering from air conditioner disease .
