Energy Savings Tips

March 14, 2022

You, like most people, would love to have lower bills, in general. There are some bills you have a little control over while others are going to be steady and there’s not much you can do about them. If you’d like to focus on your energy bills, there are likely things you can do to save money so you can lower your energy usage. One big thing you can do is to get replacement windows in Santa Barbara, CA, but there are other things to consider as well.

Clean Out The Air Ducts

Have you ever had your air ducts cleaned out? If not, and you have lived in your house for a long time, you might want to have that process done. The air ducts, if they are filled with dust and grim, are going to force the HVAC to work harder to push air through to your home. Getting the ducts cleaned out means there’s plenty of room for the air to come into the home. Plus, you aren’t blowing around a bunch of dust and you will have cleaner air at the same time.

Change Air Filters

The air filters on your HVAC can do a lot for your home. They operate like the air ducts, in a way, in that if they are dirty, it’s harder for the system to push air through to the house and that will make your energy bills rise. Your HVAC has to work harder, too, and that means it could need more repairs over the years. When you change the filters, you get cleaner air and it’s easier for the HVAC to work better and preserve your energy efficiency.

Adjust Thermostats Around Schedules

If you have a programmable thermostat, use it accordingly. If not, you might want to have one installed. That way, you can play around with the temperatures that you want to use in your house and at what time. You might not mind it being cooler overnight in the winter because you are sleeping under big blankets. Lowering the heat a bit can help you to save energy at that time. You can also get more energy savings if you lower that heat during the day when you aren’t home. Save the most comfortable heating schedule for when you are in the home. The same is true about the summer when you want to get the air conditioning to cool the temperatures.
