Installing an air conditioning unit can make your family far more comfortable at night. Did you know that the temperature of your home can directly impact the quality of sleep that you get? Even if you go to bed early enough and sleep all night through, you could be tossing and turning if the temperature in your home is not just right. By installing an air conditioner, or servicing or replacing your existing one, we can improve your quality of sleep, so even if you do not technically sleep longer, you will wake up feeling more refreshed.
Air Conditioning and Sleep Quality
According to the National Sleep Foundation, the best temperature for your room at night is 65 degrees. In the summer months, most people sleep with their room much warmer, and this can negatively impact sleep patterns because the body is designed to cool off at night, typically reaching its lowest temperature around 5 a.m. before rising once again. The body naturally does this every night, but if your room is too hot to begin with, it becomes difficult for the natural sleep cycle to take place. The body may begin to sweat, as a result, which can only further your discomfort. The National Sleep Foundation recommends taking a shower before bed to help cool down your body temperature and keeping the house cool throughout the night. We can install an air conditioning unit that is on a timer to keep the house at a certain temperature based on the time of day. That way, you will not need to worry about making adjustments manually. If you want to keep it warmer during the day, it can automatically adjust, and this could even help wake you up in the morning if the temperature rises when you are supposed to get out of bed and head off to work.
Since a good night's sleep is important for your overall health, it is wise to take the steps necessary for ensuring that you not only get a good rest but that it is a quality one. This can help you to fight off sickness and have the energy you need to keep up with the demands of work and your family.
