When your system sees heavy usage, the build-up of dust and dirt particles can occur much faster. A dirty air filter in your HVAC can be a big problem. What many people don't realize is that it also adds to your energy consumption. To provide the same amount of heating or cooling, a system with clogged filters would need to work even harder. Changing out dirty filters will keep your air cleaner, on top of helping you cut back on the energy you consume.
If you have an old thermostat, you're likely wasting lots of energy and money cooling an empty house during the day when no one's home. A programmable thermostat will allow you to cut back on the energy you use when you're out and about - smart thermostats even let you control the temperature with a mobile device.
With regular maintenance, professionals will look over your system and ensure it's working at peak capacity. Aside from keeping your heating and cooling safe from breakdowns, this also creates savings in energy consumption. With all the components of your system working as they should, it won't begin to operate inefficiently due to malfunctions or wear and tear. Whatever you spend on preventative maintenance can be more than made up for with the energy savings you’ll be enjoying on a monthly basis.
