Air conditioning a dog house seems like an extravagant extravagance, but in fact it’s a smart move for your furry friend. If you live in a hot climate and don’t want to risk your pet getting dehydrated or sick from the heat, install an air conditioner in your dog’s house!
How to Choose a Dog House AC
The ideal temperature for your dog house should be 75F to 78F. Adjust the thermostat to this setting and turn the unit on to keep your dog cool all summer long!
You can also use fans to improve air circulation in your dog’s house and to remove hot, humid air. However, you must ensure that the fan isn’t too loud as it can make your dog feel anxious or uncomfortable.
Evaporative cooling is another great option for keeping your dog house cool. These systems use a water tank to propel moist air out of the building, but they’re not recommended for use in damp areas as they can cause mold growth.
Portable air conditioners are also an affordable and simple solution to keep your dog house cool in the summer. They don’t take up much floor space, so you can easily install them in small spaces.
If you’re looking for a cooling system that’s eco-friendly and energy-efficient, consider investing in a ductless mini split air conditioner. These are quiet, easy to install, and can save you lots of money on your electricity bills.
