HVAC Cost Savings Ideas

Save Money and Lower Enviromental Impact

Maintain Your Equipment

This is the most basic, and easiest, way to reduce your air comfort costs. Investing time to change air filters on a regular basis, clean your condensing unit and be quick to call an HVAC professional anytime that you notice an unusual performance or noise from any component of your air conditioner or heating system. Some aspects of HVAC system maintenance, such as cleaning evaporator coils, should be performed by a licensed mechanical contractor. Bob's Heating and Cooling offers HVAC Maintenance Services.

Upgrade To High Efficiency Equipment

If your equipment is over 10 years old it is probably extremely energy inefficient compared to modern equipment designs. Manufacturers often offer equipment rebates and, in some cases, your system upgrade may qualify you for tax credits. By Replacing Your HVAC System you will see substantial drops in your utility bills. An average consumer may see a savings of thousands of dollars over a few short years.

Programmable Thermostats

Upgrading to a programmable thermostat allows you to have near effortless control over your HVAC system. For example, a programmable thermostat can be set to run less often during your workday and start running shortly before you arrive home so that you arrive to a comfortable home and eliminated your unit running all day while you are gone.

Get A Zoned System

You have probably heard the term "Zoned Air Conditioning and Heating". A zoned system has been designed to switch the delivery of conditioned air (cooled or heated air) to different parts of your home at different times of day. For example, during the day conditioned air is delivered to living spaces while at night the conditioned air is delivered to sleeping areas. If you have already invested in high efficiency equipment, and utilize zoned delivery, your air comfort system will be incredibly kind to your utility bills.
