  1. lolxzz... Tht's So true . It's nice of you to share to us this fact. Well, it is quite important that we all have to have a basic knowledge about the things around us, and we should know how to take care of them.

  2. There’s been bad press over A/C’s for some time now because of the health risks associated with it. Even so, air cons can be taken advantage without putting our health on the line. Air cons must be installed by professionals to ensure that the room is properly ventilated. For us users, we must ensure that the room temperature is between 21 to 25 degrees, with a humidity that ranges from 60 to 70%.

  3. I think you'll agree with me that air cons have made our lives significantly more convenient. But of course, it came with a price. Not only we have to worry about our bills skyrocketing, we also put our health at risk. But, that risk can be reduced drastically through simple measures, such as giving the A/C breaks (especially at night) and making sure the vents in our house are working properly.

  4. Air conditioners have provided us a lot of comfort since their inception. Of course, this blessing comes with a curse; but, this only happens when the air conditioner is not used responsibly. Responsible usage of A/C’s will not only reduce the risk of these health hazards, but cut down our costs as well.
