Sudden changes between hot outdoor temperatures and cold indoor air can weaken the immune system, making you more prone to colds and flu.

If the AC is not cleaned regularly, it can circulate dust, bacteria, and allergens, which may trigger allergies and asthma.
💆 4. Headaches & Fatigue
Cold, dry air can cause dehydration, headaches, and general fatigue, especially after long exposure.
🌍 5. Environmental Impact
Air conditioners consume a lot of electricity and can contribute to environmental pollution if overused.
