Cooling smart: AC sizing, temperature & timers

5 min read · Updated 2026

Right-sized ACs cool faster and use less. Timers cut the rest.

Sizing

0.5 ton per 100 sqft in south-facing rooms; 0.4 ton elsewhere. Oversized ACs cycle inefficiently.

Timers

Set the AC to auto-off 30 minutes before you usually wake — the room stays cool enough.
