California Heat Wave? Set Your AC Colder and Still Save Money

Whenever a heatwave hits California, the utilities (PG&E and SCE) start sending out frantic "Flex Alerts" asking you to turn your thermostat up to 78°F or higher.

We don't think that's fair—and with Airspool, you don't have to listen.

Solar Cooling vs. The Grid

Because Airspool is a solar-powered hybrid unit, it runs for free whenever it's sunny. While the rest of the neighborhood is stressing out the grid, your Airspool unit is happily humming along using the very sun that is causing the heatwave.

Strategy for a Cool Home

By using a 1-ton Airspool unit in the room where you spend most of your time, you can:

  1. Set its thermostat as low as you want.
  2. Turn your main, inefficient central unit up.

This helps the grid (by reducing the load of your massive 5-ton unit) while keeping you perfectly comfortable for zero cost.

Don't sacrifice your comfort for a failing grid. Use the sun to beat the heat.
