Cooling Down For Less

COOLING DOWN FOR LESS HOW DO YOU KEEP YOUR COOL & KEEP YOUR UTILITY BILLS IN LINE? 1. Check It Dut It's time to check that your system is ready to go for the year. Here's how: Are your vents blocked? If you've moved furniture around, make sure you haven't accidentally blocked one, preventing the flow of cool air. Is there debris or other items covering your HVAC unit? Make sure your unit is getting good air flow, or it may freeze up when you need it most. Does it start up? Check your system to see if it will start before you need it, so that you can get any needed repairs done before it gets hot out. 2. Maintain Keeping your HVAC unit in good repair helps lower your utility costs. Here's why: Replace your air filter. A clean air filter keeps your blower from working too hard and running up your bill and keeps your air pure. Have your HVAC system serviced. A trained service tech can find small problems that affect your energy use before they become big problems. Get your ducts cleaned and inspected. Clean ducts make your home more comfortable and broken or drafty ones waste your cold air. 3. Adjust Your System Have you made seasonal adjustments or changes to your HVAC system? You should: Set your thermostat to a slightly higher temperature. You don't need to hang meat in your house, after all. Invest in a smart thermostat. A smart thermostat learns your habits and helps adjust your system's operation to save money. Time to install a new unit? If yours is more than 10 years old, you'll save a lot of power with a newer, higher-efficiency unit. Follow these simple steps and you'll be on your way to a COOL, COMFORTABLE HOME IN NO TIME! 407-695-6646 www.gembecki.com powered by Piktochart make information beautiful
