First of all, it is important to clean the air conditioner filter regularly to maintain the efficiency of the air conditioner and maintain good air quality. If the AC filter is not cleaned from time to time, its cooling gets affected.
Many times, if the air conditioner filter is not clean, then even if the AC is set to 16, it does not get the cooling that it gets at 24. Apart from this, the room also does not get clean air because many bacteria are present in the AC filter.
If you are using AC then you should remove its filter and wash it with plain water at least once a month.
By doing this the dust present in the filter gets cleaned. Apart from this, the cooling of the air conditioner also increases. If the filters are extremely dirty and cannot be cleaned with water, then you should replace your AC filter.
If the filters of the air conditioner are clean, then you will get excellent cooling even if you run the AC at 24. But if the filters of your air conditioner are not clean, then you will not get as much cooling as 24 degrees Celsius, even if you run it at 16.
However, experts recommend keeping the temperature of the air conditioner at 24 degrees Celsius. By doing this your electricity bill will also be reduced.
