July 3 - August 15 are Air Conditioning Appreciation Days

The arrival of summer's sticky, steamy weather is a reminder that July 3 through August 15 is designated "Air Conditioning Appreciation Days," so don't forget to give your cooling equipment some tender loving care before the "dog days of summer" turn into scorchers.

The Air Conditioning and Refrigeration Institute's (ARI) guidelines give homeowners suggestions to help keep central air conditioners working properly, which can reduce energy costs, head off expensive repairs and protect families from killer heat waves like the kind that took thousands of lives last year in Europe and India.

"Proper maintenance of your air conditioner can help you beat the summer heat and conserve electricity," says William G. Sutton, president of ARI. "However, if your air conditioner or heat pump gives you problems that seem too expensive to fix, consider a replacement. Newer equipment on average is about 50 percent more energy efficient than equipment manufactured 25 years ago." Read on for tips on how to keep cool this summer...

And don't forget! When temperatures rise so high in Bond County that a HEAT ADVISORY is issued, Bond County Senior Center serves as a cooling center from 9:00 - 5:00 weekdays.

 

 

Bond County Humane Society offers special adoption discounts for seniors 60 years or older. Senior adopters receive a $50 discount off of adoption fees. This discount is made available through the The Purina Pets For Seniors program. Studies have shown that pet companionship actually improves senior citizen health and outlook on life. Lowered blood pressure and a reduction in stress are among the potential benefits of pet ownership. In addition‚ seniors with pets report feeling happier and safer. The Pets For Seniors program helps to defray the costs of spaying or neutering‚ vaccinations‚ and other fees and provides product information‚ coupons‚ and a pet care booklet.
