I always thought leaving the AC on power saver was better than turning off the AC altogether for short periods.
I figured the surge each time used more electricity. But my son found an article on the internet saying
This was a myth. And you should shut off the AC even for short periods. Do you agree with this opinion?

What do you mean by "power saver"? When the A/C is not on to cool the house, the fan is also not on... so in reality, all of it is off.

I run my home and 350 apartments. From my experience, the best option is to be conservative with the automatic settings and just leave it alone.

Heat to 68 and cool to 75.
