There's no need to blast the AC while you're away. For
central units, install a programmable thermostat that lets you set
higher temps when you're gone and cooler temps when you're home. Newer
window units have built-in timers and adjustable thermostats, or you can
buy a timer at any home store for $10 to $20; just make sure it matches
your device's voltage. Unless you're going on vacation, don't shut off
the system; otherwise, the air compressor will need to work harder to
cool your house later.
