Con Edison sent out a news release with some helpful tips and hints to keep homes cooler without spending too much money, such as making sure air conditioner filters are clean for peak efficiency and not setting thermostats any lower than 78 degrees. According to Con Edison, each degree lower increases cooling costs by 6 percent.

We wear short pants, drink lots of water and take deep breaths, pizza maker Nino Chiaramida said. We eat salads too, colder foods that contain moisture.
