What are some energy-saving tips for heating and cooling?
- Make sure the caulking around your windows and doors is intact. A well-insulated home keeps the cooled air out and the heated air in.
- Use a programmable or smart thermostat to regulate the temperature of your home when you are away.
- Replace or clean your filters on a regular basis. A fresh filter helps keep the coil and heat exchanger clean, which increases energy efficiency, helping minimize the risk of breakdowns and helping extend the life of your heating and cooling system.
- In the cooler months, open your drapes and blinds on sunny days. Passive heat from sun, through a thermal window can make a room more comfortable.
