How to Stay Cool When the AC Fails

Frog Heating, Air & Electric Will Save the Day

There are some things that are tough—nearly impossible—to live without. Maybe it’s your best friend. Your cell phone. Or chocolate. But in the middle of a July heat wave, one thing on everyone’s list is the same: Your air conditioning.

The good news is that Frog Heating, Air & Electric will arrive quickly when your AC fails and you need an air conditioning replacement company in Nashville, TN, or beyond.

The not-so-great news is you’ll begin to feel the effects of a failed air conditioning system in no time at all unless you take steps to keep your cool. So, until Frog shows up to save the day, here are some helpful suggestions:

  1. If it’s during the day, keep your shades down and your curtains drawn to prevent sunlight from turning your home into a sauna. Don’t open the windows and keep the doors closed as much as possible by minimizing trips in and out.
  2. If it’s after sunset, open windows and use fans to create a cool cross breeze.
  3. Use the microwave or outdoor grill instead of the oven or stove.
  4. Use a dehumidifier to remove moist air. Dry air helps you feel cooler.
  5. Set ceiling fans to counter clockwise to push down cool air and pull up hot air.
  6. Turn on lights and appliances only when needed.
  7. Wear light, loose-fitting clothing and stay hydrated.
  8. Take cool showers.

Of course, the ultimate solution to a failed AC system is a top-notch replacement and installation from the experts at Frog. Our NATE-certified technicians can walk you through the process from start to finish so that your home is equipped with the unit that perfectly meets your cooling needs. When a system is too large or too small for your home, your AC unit operates inefficiently, costs more and is more likely to need repairs or replacement.

So What’s Next?

Once your new energy-efficient system is in place, it’s important to schedule routine maintenance to keep it operating at its best. Regular checkups and precision tune-ups allow our technicians to identify little problems before they spiral into major disasters. These visits also offer our team the perfect opportunity to clean or replace parts, add fluids, tighten equipment and do all of the things that keep your AC running smoothly, efficiently and affordably.

Frog is the heating and air company in Nashville, TN, that understands a new air conditioner is a major investment. We offer valuable coupons, including a free quote on a system replacement and affordable financing options.
