If you don't use the air conditioner correctly in summer, beware of a crooked mouth, slanted eyes and body aches

These past two days, however, I keep seeing netizens suffering facial paralysis, hematoma, and a crooked mouth with slanted eyes from air conditioning... It sounds terrifying, but the truth is many people simply don't know how to use an air conditioner correctly. Today, Huahua will explain it all in detail!

Common mistakes in air conditioner use

Mistake 1: Not opening windows for fresh air

Generally, when the air conditioner is on, doors and windows are kept tightly closed to prevent the cold air from escaping. However, over time, the indoor air becomes very stale, and being in it for long periods can make people dizzy and weak, and can also cause respiratory infections.

Mistake 2: The lower the temperature, the better

When the air conditioner temperature is 25-28 degrees C, the human body is in a comfortable state, but surveys show that nearly 44% of netizens set the air conditioner below 24 degrees C, creating too great a temperature difference from outdoors and leading to frequent colds and fevers.

Mistake 3: Blowing it directly on your face feels cooler

Some people crave the cold and blow the air conditioner directly on their face, and after a night of it, they find that the facial muscle groups have movement dysfunction, commonly known as --facial paralysis, and in severe cases evena crooked mouth and slanted eyes, or partial paralysis, and no amount of regret will help.

To avoid this situation, you can install a wind deflector under the air outlet, and it won't harm your body~

Mistake 3: The air conditioner doesn't need cleaning

Many people have never cleaned their own air conditioner. In fact, among all home appliances, air conditioners accumulate the most dust, germs and pollutants. Not cleaning them for a long time can easily lead to respiratory infections and skin allergies.

How to use an air conditioner correctly?

1. Don't rush to turn on the air conditioner after entering the room

In summer, outdoors, you sweat heavily and your blood vessels are dilated. When you first enter the room, if you immediately turn on the air conditioner, the temperature drops suddenly, causing the blood vessels to constrict sharply and blood pressure to rise, and in severe cases it can trigger cardiovascular disease. So after entering the room, don't rush to turn on the air conditioner; wait until your body temperature returns to room temperature before turning it on!

2. Turn on the air conditioner first, then close the windows

Since there is all kinds of dust and bacteria inside the air conditioner, when you first turn it on you should open the windows first, let the pollutants be released, and then close the doors and windows. This can reduce the risk of infection. In addition, you should alsoopen the windows for fresh air every 3 hours！

3. The cooling air outlet should face upward

Cold air moves downward, and hot air does the opposite, so in summer the air outlet should face upward, letting the cold air circulate from top to bottom, which can cool the entire room evenly and quickly!

4. 26 degrees C is the most comfortable

In weather of around 35 degrees C, it is best to set the air conditioner to 26 degrees C. When the indoor-outdoor temperature difference does not exceed 10 degrees, the body is most comfortable and the air conditioner also saves more electricity.

5. Put a basin of water in the air-conditioned room

During operation, the air conditioner draws moisture out of the air. While it lowers the temperature, it also makes the air dry. When the moisture in the room decreases, it will absorb moisture from the human body, causing dry skin and dry eyes, so you should put a basin of water in the room.

6. Don't turn off the air conditioner for brief outings

Many people turn off the air conditioner when going out for a short time to save electricity, but the high voltage generated by frequent operation only wastes more electricity and easily damages the air conditioner!

7. Set a timer when using the air conditioner at night

The temperature is relatively low in the latter half of the night, so you shouldn't leave the air conditioner on all night. Setting it for 2-3 hours starting from bedtime is enough. Also, be careful not to blow it directly on your head!

8. Clean the air conditioner regularly

The air conditioner panel and filter mesh accumulate a lot of dust and breed a lot of bacteria. In summer, it is recommended to clean them once every 1-2 months, and if conditions permit, you can use a professional air conditioner disinfectant for disinfection.
