When To Shut Down Your Air Conditioner

Just yesterday we were talking about temperatures in the seventies.  Now as Tuesday rolls around we are back in the eighties.  The National Weather Service forecast shows that later in the week we will be back near ninety degrees Fahrenheit.  

If you don’t like Arizona weather you just have to wait for it to change. With the exception of our run of ninety days or so where we are always (or nearly so) over 100 degrees. Our weather varies quite a bit. Yet it is nearly always has very pleasant hours.  Yes, just like the next few days we may need air conditioning in the afternoon, but, the mornings and evenings will be beautiful. 

Speaking of evenings the Valley of the Sun is the one place where the AC unit may run during the afternoon but you will need a blanket before the night is over as the outside temperature drops into the fifties (even the low fifties). 

Since we all agree that the Phoenix Metro area has really great weather most of the time (say eight out of twelve months) we can use our time to do the things we want.  While we won’t be able to ride a snowmobile here in the desert we can go dirt biking in January or February.  But just one-hundred-twenty miles north in the Flagstaff area we can unload that snowmobile and cruise through the forests. 

We started this by asking when we can shut down the air conditioner.  Well with most modern units it is just a matter of money the switch from cool to heat. In some older homes you need to slide out a sheet metal diverter or move a damper control arm when you change over.  You may even need to light a pilot light on your furnace. 

When the time comes Aaron’s Mechanical Services looks forward to coming to your home and do the conversion for you and check over all the items that will keep you warm and comfortable for the next few months.
