How Air Conditioner Service May Help You Sleep Better

September 08, 2016

When you’re not getting a great night’s sleep, you routinely feel like you’ve woken up on the wrong side of the bed. Not getting good sleep not only plays a role in your mood, but can also affect your health. Research has shown that most of us could use an additional 60-90 minutes of sleep a night. So where does air conditioner service come in to this? Getting more sleep isn’t just about getting to bed earlier, it also involves the setting the best environment.

Setting the Perfect Temperature

A study was done, and the Wall Street Journal posted an article about the importance of temperature in sleep quality. Your body’s core temperature has to drop by 2-3 degrees to sleep. If your temperature is too high, your body has a hard time changing from being awake to asleep. The National Sleep Foundation suggests a temperature between 60-67 degrees F/15-19 degrees C for optimal sleep.

A great way to have the best sleeping environment is to take advantage of your smart thermostat. The iComfort® S30 is an intuitive thermostat that will determine your routine and make thermostat adjustments for you. Another perk of this thermostat is that it will let you and your tech know when your system must have attention. That kind of peace of mind can also help you de-stress.

Better Bedtime Habits

We know how busy life can be, but if possible, maintain a bedtime schedule and routine. Try to get to bed and wake up about the same time every day, even on weekends. This can help set your body’s internal clock.

Creating your own individual bedtime ritual could help your body get ready for bed. Discover a relaxing activity to help you wind down such as a warm bath, reading a book or listening to relaxing music. After you get in the habit of doing these rituals before bed, your body will learn that it’s time to get in bed and go to sleep.
