Why You Shouldn’t Set Your AC to 26°C at Night
“Cool comfort shouldn’t come at the cost of your health or energy bill.”
During summer, 26°C is often seen as the perfect AC setting — but at night, it can backfire. As you sleep, your body’s temperature naturally drops. Keeping the AC too low may cause you to wake up chilled, grab a blanket, or even catch a cold.
The Healthier Nighttime Temperature
Experts recommend setting your AC to 28°C while sleeping. This prevents late-night chills while staying energy-efficient. If 28°C feels too warm, use Sleep Mode — it gradually raises the temperature from 26°C to 28°C through the night for steady comfort.
Why 26°C Might Not Feel Cool Enough
If your AC still feels warm at 26°C, common culprits include a dirty filter, blocked vents, low refrigerant, or an undersized unit. Regular cleaning and proper maintenance can restore cooling performance.
Bottom line: Adjust your AC with your body’s needs in mind — not just the thermometer.
