With skyrocketing energy bills saving on electricity has never been more important. Fortunately, there are several strategies to help you reduce your energy consumption without sacrificing indoor comfort. TOTAL 1 AC & HEATING is here to help you save on your electricity bill.
1. Upgrade to a Programmable Thermostat
According to the U.S. Department of Energy, you can save up to 10% a year on heating and cooling by simply turning your thermostat back. With a programmable thermostat, you can set your AC to run less. A programmable thermostat is one of the simplest yet most effective ways to save energy.
2. Invest in Energy-Efficient HVAC Systems
If your HVAC system is over 20+ years old, it might be time for an upgrade. Modern, energy-efficient systems can significantly reduce your electricity consumption. ENERGY STAR® certified air conditioners use up to 15% less energy than standard models. While the initial investment may seem high, the long-term savings on your electricity bill can be substantial.
3. Regular HVAC Maintenance
Regular HVAC system maintenance ensures it runs efficiently, helping you save on electricity. Dirty filters and plugged coils force your system to work harder, consuming more energy. Regular maintenance can reduce your energy consumption by 15-33%.
Whether you’re upgrading your HVAC system, re-ducting your home, or scheduling regular maintenance, every step counts towards a more energy-efficient home.
