Air conditioning is a must during those blazing hot summer days, but it can certainly take a huge bite out of your wallet. The good news is that you don’t have to sacrifice a cool home to get your energy bills under control. You just have to make some slight adjustments to your home so that your AC works more efficiently. First, know turning off your AC when you leave your home and then turning it on full blast when you return to cool down is a big no-no. This will only make your AC unit work harder and skyrocket your bill. Instead, raise your thermostat temperature up several degrees while you’re away to save your bill. Follow the rest of these air conditioning tips from Expert HVAC Care and you’ll enjoy a nice cool summer without the added costs.

This infographic has some great tips for staying cool without high energy bills! The red and blue color scheme is a smart choice for talking about temperature, and the icons in each section help to reinforce the subjects of each, though I'd love to see something a bit more bold and obvious (like a large header illustration or other visual themes) to show off the overall theme. Definitely watch how long your text gets, though — something more like the bottom section "Signs Your A/C Needs a Tune-Up" is best to shoot for throughout an infographic whenever you can. In all I'd give this a C!
