Looking for more efficient airflow and energy use from your indoor air system? We’ve got four ways to help you step up your game in 2020. Use one or more to see a reduction in home energy costs and repairs.
1. Update or Become Obsolete
Systems that were installed more than 10 to 15 years ago can’t compete with the equipment being built today. Manufacturers have made sweeping changes that help improve overall system efficiency no matter the season. Older units that still use R-22 refrigerant will become more costly to maintain and eventually obsolete. Beyer Air Conditioning & Heating Conditioning & Heating has financing with approved credit for homeowners who want to pay overtime for a new system. We’d be happy to help you find the right equipment for your needs.
2. Install a Programmable Thermostat
Programmable thermostats allow you to set and reset your system to meet your indoor air preferences. You can change settings and lower costs when your home is unoccupied day or night. Upgrade to a smart thermostat, and you can control what happens with your system from any location at any time.
3. Replace Air Filters Regularly
If there’s only one thing you do this year to improve your system’s operation, change the filters every month. This supports a more efficient operation. A dirty air filter can clog equipment and slow airflow throughout your home. Buy multiples of the appropriate filter style and size when they’re on sale. You’ll always have a filter ready when it’s time to replace the old one.
4. Check for Air Duct Leaks
Conduct a system inspection to identify possible air duct leaks. Leaks can cause your energy bills to rise. A skilled technician can locate places where connections have been compromised or insulation has worn away.
