1. Change Your Filters
Dirty filters kill your AC's efficiency, so install a new one every month
during the cooling season for central and window units (or clean them
if you've got the washable type).

3. Use a Timer
There's no need to blast the AC at full tilt while you're at work. For
central units, install a programmable thermostat that lets you set higher
temps when you're gone and cooler temps when you're home.

4. Insulate to Keep Air Cool
Ducts in hot attics or crawl spaces should be wrapped to keep the air
within them cool. You can use spray foam, batt insulation, or rigid-foam
insulation.

6. Keep Your AC Unit Cool
Extend the life of your AC system by keeping blinds or shades down during
the day; you can also install awnings to shield south-facing windows from
intense sun. Consider running the AC in conjunction with floor or ceiling fans
to circulate cooled air more effectively.

cleaning the filters.
