Summer is here, and with Melbourne’s warm weather comes the challenge of keeping cool without racking up high energy bills. At O’Shea Plumbing & Electrical, we’re here to help you stay comfortable while saving money with these simple energy-saving tips:

  1. Set your air conditioning temperature to 24–26°C: This range is optimal for staying cool without overloading your system.
  2. Seal gaps around doors and windows: Prevent cool air from escaping and hot air from sneaking in by sealing drafts.
  3. Use blinds and curtains: Block out the sun during the hottest part of the day to keep indoor temperatures down.
  4. Pair ceiling fans with your air conditioner: Fans help circulate the cool air, making your home feel more comfortable.
  5. Schedule air conditioner maintenance: A well-maintained system is more efficient and reliable during the summer heat.

By adopting these practices, you can enjoy a comfortable home while keeping your energy usage in check.
