Depending on where you\u2019re located in Australia, the summer heat can be brutal, especially if you\u2019re not used to experiencing warm weather throughout the year. To account for these higher temperatures, your energy bills may face harsh ramifications as a result of keeping your home cool and you and your household comfortable.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s why we\u2019ve prepared a useful guide that will help to keep your house and your bills cool all summer long.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Consider Portable Air Conditioners<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the best ways to beat the heat is to use an air conditioner, but economically. Ultimately, the aim of air conditioning is to make you feel comfortable, not frozen cold. Did you know that each degree you set your air-con below 25-27<em>\u00b0C&nbsp;<\/em>increases your overall energy consumption by approximately 5-10%, according to yourhome.gov.au? Additionally, you could try cooling certain areas of the house rather than your entire home to avoid blasting air-cons all throughout the house.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/excelsiorproducts.com.au\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Excelsior\u2019s<\/a>&nbsp;wide range of&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/excelsiorproducts.com.au\/product-category\/excelair-portable-air-conditioners\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">portable air-cons<\/a>&nbsp;is perfect for any household looking for a way to stay cool this summer.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Use a fan when it\u2019s not scorching hot<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If it isn\u2019t scorching hot, we suggest using a fan rather than air conditioning.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/excelsiorproducts.com.au\/product-category\/excelair-fans\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Excelair fans<\/a>&nbsp;are not only a much more cost-effective way to stay cool but also come in a wide variety of styles to match any interior.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Boost natural ventilation<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Keeping your house cool doesn\u2019t only mean using appliances. Early in the morning or in the evening once it starts to cool, why not ditch technology entirely and boost natural ventilation by choosing windows or door types that can improve airflow? One example is replacing enclosed doors or windows and adding a flyscreen.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Level up your home experience with Excelsior!<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/excelsiorproducts.com.au\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Excelsior<\/a>&nbsp;products, incorporating Excelair and Excelsior product ranges, have been in the Australian market since 2014.
