Do you sometimes return home after a long day at work feeling like there just isn’t enough time in the day? Do you stay up at night thinking of all the things you need to get done tomorrow and the things you didn’t get done today? Productivity in your Montgomery, Alabama, workplace is affected by many different factors, but did you know that your air conditioner efficiency could be a big one? Keeping your air conditioner running efficiently is one way you and your employees can meet all of your productivity goals. Here’s the link between AC efficiency and workplace productivity.
The Link
Decreased efficiency in an air conditioner leads to two main issues that adversely affect productivity in the workplace: poor temperature control and poor indoor air quality. Recent studies have shown that employees feel less productive both when it is too cold or too warm in their workplace. More employees feel a reduction in productivity especially when it’s too warm. An inefficient system reduces your control over indoor temperature and comfort.
Inefficient air conditioners do a poor job of maintaining high indoor air quality. When air quality drops, employees (especially those extra-sensitive to allergens and airborne irritants) will experience symptoms ranging from a sore or itchy throat to headaches, runny noses, nausea, or other full-blown illnesses. All of these symptoms contribute to frequent absences and even greater loss of productivity.
The Solution
So, what can you do? There are many ways to keep an air conditioner running efficiently, but the most beneficial solution is to invest in routine preventive maintenance conducted by a licensed HVAC contractor. Our contractors will:
