Riverside County Desert Climate Tips
Summer Cooling Strategies: • Set thermostats to 80°F or higher during peak hours (2-8 PM) • Use thermal mass cooling - pre-cool homes overnight when temperatures drop • Install radiant barriers in attics to reflect heat • Upgrade to high-SEER air conditioning systems (16+ SEER recommended) • Use light-colored roofing materials to reduce heat absorption • Schedule major appliance use during early morning or late evening hours
Winter Heating Efficiency: • Take advantage of solar gain - open south-facing curtains during sunny days • Set heating to 65-68°F and use zone heating for occupied areas • Seal air leaks which are critical in desert wind conditions • Use ceiling fans in reverse to circulate warm air • Consider solar water heating systems for year-round efficiency
