Your AC will actually run longer overall if it is left on all day instead of being shut off. If you turn it off for part of the day, it runs less and results in more energy savings for you. In almost all cases, it will save you money to shut off your AC while you are away from home.10 Oct 2020
Is it bad to keep turning on and off AC?
An air conditioner that is switching on and off repeatedly is bad for both homeowners and your AC system. It takes more power to start your AC over and over as opposed to when it's running smoothly as it does in longer cycles. It also causes extra wear and tear on the mechanisms that work to turn on your AC.30 Aug 2019
