Do you leave your air con running 24/7?
Just curious. Seems popular to do that here. If not, why not? If so, why?

Saving energy is a good reason to leave off when not required.
Ours has been off since about October and just now beginning to use at night. Our flat seems well insulated so not needed for a large part of the year! |

I know the reasons why you shouldn't. I just want to know why so many people in the UAE leave their air conditioning running all day every day. It's just one of the many stupid things that stupid people here do and I am trying to understand the reasoning behind it.

We also let the taps run day and night because that way you know you have no nasty dead water in the pipes. Oh, and don't ever turn the oven off cause nasty creepy crawlies might get in and spoil the food. I also leave the car running day and night with the airco on so it's nice and cool when you get in. Besides, it's sooo embarrassing when you forget you have already started the engine and try to start it again. Best just to leave it running. I've also heard that starting the car burns more fuel than leaving it running so I'm also helping the environment. Ain't that nice of me! |

I work from my apartment, so I always leave the air con running on the 24th July...when it is very hot (40+ degrees) outside. :thumbup:

Ours is on a lot, because in JBR the windows don't open and the a/c is the only ventilation we get :blink:

I have been using the sevices of 2 eunuchs to ventilate me with big feathers...

Mine's all paid for but generally no....much prefer to leave the balcony door open to get some air flowing through. Air conditioned air is a bit weird. |
Re: Do you leave your air con running 24/7?
Maybe somefolk don't like walking into their house and it being hot? I often start the car before I get in to let the climate control make it habitable, remote starter is a must for any car IMO :D. Mind you I have a kettle that keeps water hot, a breadmaker that works at the push of a button and a hoover that runs itself around while I'm at work :).
Think of all the way technology will improve your life in the future, people are always amazed at robots that can walk and run but I think thats silly. Why would you care? Show me a device that will make my life better and easier, I'll get my wallet. Now if only there where a machine that could make dinner just as I like it...;) |
