You can depend on Clifford's HVAC for all of your home and commerical HVAC needs.
A good night’s sleep does more than leave you feeling rested—it’s essential for your health, focus, and overall well-being. But while most people think about mattresses, pillows, or blackout curtains, few realize how much their HVAC system plays a role in whether they sleep soundly or toss and turn.
At Clifford’s HVAC, we’ve seen first-hand how the right home comfort settings can transform not only your daily comfort but also the quality of your rest. Here’s what you should know:
Your body naturally lowers its core temperature at night to help you fall asleep and stay asleep. Experts suggest that the ideal sleep temperature for most people is 60–67°F. If your HVAC system struggles to keep a consistent setting, you may wake up feeling too hot or too cold, which disrupts your sleep cycle.
Tip: Use your thermostat’s programmable or smart scheduling features to automatically lower the temperature at bedtime.
North Alabama summers bring high humidity, and excess moisture in your bedroom can make it harder to breathe and leave you feeling sticky or restless. On the other hand, overly dry air in the winter can cause congestion or dry out your throat and skin, leading to sleep interruptions.
Tip: A properly sized HVAC system with humidity control—or adding a whole-home dehumidifier or humidifier—can help balance indoor air year-round.
Dust, pollen, and other allergens circulating in your air can trigger nighttime sneezing, coughing, or even worsen sleep apnea. Clean indoor air is especially important for children and adults with allergies.
Tip: Regularly change your HVAC filters and consider adding advanced filtration or an air purifier to your system for cleaner air while you sleep.
A noisy AC unit that rattles or cycles on and off too often can disrupt deep sleep. This is usually a sign of wear, undersized equipment, or maintenance issues.
Tip: If your system is loud enough to disturb your rest, it may be time for a tune-up or replacement. Modern systems run far quieter while maintaining consistent comfort.
Your HVAC system is more than just heating and cooling—it’s a key part of creating a comfortable, healthy sleep environment. If you’ve noticed restless nights, frequent wake-ups, or morning fatigue, your home comfort system could be part of the issue.
