What are the benefits of having AC in the bedroom?
HEALTH
Adding an air conditioning unit to your bedroom can have a multitude of health benefits. Sleeping in a hot room can cause reduced cognitive performance in young people according to a study by Harvard. Air conditioners also remove dust, toxins and other pollutions in the air. This can reduce the risk of asthma attacks, hay fever and allergies and if you have an air conditioning unit going you’re less likely to have your windows open, so you won’t be introducing the pollutions to your room in the first place.
COMFORT
We all know the nightmare of sleeping in a hot room in the middle of summer. Air conditioners can help us fall to sleep easier as lowering the temperature of the room triggers our bodies to get tired and fall asleep. They also lower the humidity in the air which can reduce sweating through the night, decreasing the likelihood that you’ll become dehydrated. We all dread summer nights but you won’t have to deal with the heat anymore with an AC unit.
