Sure, you would like a lower energy bill, but do you know how to pull it off? Here are a few things you might want to put into action:
- When you are not using major appliances, take the plug out. This goes for your microwave oven, even your phone charger.
- Make sure you optimize the situation when you open and/or close vents. This can have an effect on your system.
- Don’t be afraid to turn your air conditioner up (warmer, around 85) if it is cool outside. You’ll save money this way.
- For cool air, set your ceiling fan to spin counter-clockwise.
- Remember something very important, which is to change the filters on a regular basis. Not doing so could cost you efficiency and money!
- Make sure you grow some trees to produce some shade. The right kind of tree can give your house some shade, and that will cut down on the work your AC unit has to do!
