How Air Conditioner Service May Help You Sleep Better

September 08, 2016

When you’re not getting a good night’s sleep, you regularly feel like you’ve woken up on the wrong side of the bed. Not getting quality sleep not only plays a role in your mood, but can also play a role in your health. Research has shown that the majority of us could use an extra 60-90 minutes of sleep each night. So where does air conditioner service fit in to this? Getting extra sleep isn’t just about jumping in to bed earlier, it also involves the setting the ideal 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 go down by 2-3 degrees to sleep. If your temperature is too hot, 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 achieve the ideal sleeping environment is to set your smart thermostat. The iComfort® S30 is an intuitive thermostat that will learn your routine and make thermostat adjustments for you. Another perk of this thermostat is that it will let you and your trusted professional know when your system must have attention. That kind of peace of mind can also help you unwind.

Better Bedtime Habits

We realize how crazy life can be, but if possible, keep 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 reset your body’s internal clock.

Creating your own regular bedtime ritual will help your body get ready for bed. Do 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 activities before bed, your body will learn that it’s time to get in bed and go to sleep.
