Sleep is extremely vital to your overall well-being. It affects everything from your health to your disposition. That’s why it’s a bummer that, according to research, most people demand anywhere from 60 – 90 minutes more sleep each night. You’re most likely thinking what this has to do with air conditioner service. Studies reflect getting more sleep has a lot to do with your environment, not just your bedtime. A well-run air conditioner is key to a comfortable environment.
Setting the Perfect Temperature
The
Wall Street Journal posted an article supporting how imperative temperature is to sleep quality. To sleep, your body’s core temperature must decrease by two or three degrees. If you are too warm, your body fights to transition from being awake to being asleep. To help your body get to sleep and stay asleep, The
National Sleep Foundation recommends your room temperature be between 60-67 F/15-19 C.
To make achieving your perfect sleep environment easy, try using a smart thermostat, like the iComfort® S30. This intuitive thermostat will learn your habits and control itself to meet your home comfort needs. It will also notify you—and your technician—when your system needs updates. You’ll rest calmly with that kind of peace of mind.
Better Bedtime Habits
Life can be hectic. Even so, when realistic, set a bedtime routine. Going to bed and waking up around the same time each day—even on weekends—can help set your body’s internal clock.
Plus, creating a daily bedtime routine will signal your body it’s time to get some sleep. Try having a warm bath, listening to calming music, or reading a book. Once you’ve established your nighttime habits, your body will do its duty and you’ll get quality sleep.
