Your HVAC system is likely the biggest source of electricity usage in your home. Nationwide, heating units, cooling units, and lighting are the three biggest consumers of electrical power. Using a lot of electricity to heat, cool, and light your home can cost a lot of money. The good news is, there are ways to reduce how much energy your air conditioner and heater units use.

Whether you are just designing your heating and cooling system or want to make changes to your existing system, we can offer you tips on energy efficient choices.
Reducing Energy Costs in Your Existing HVAC System
If you have an HVAC system and are not ready to make major upgrades or replace components, there are still things that you can do in order to save energy. For example, you may want to consider a programmable thermostat so you can turn your heat down or turn your AC up when you are sleeping or at work. There are also small things you can do that make a big difference. You should also think about improving the insulation in your home. You may also want to work on sealing cracks around doors and windows. Your airtight home will hold in the warm air longer. Even doing these simple things can make a big difference in your energy costs. Since your heating and cooling system won’t have to work as hard, you can also extend the life of your unit.
