Cutting your utility costs in the fall is a great way to save money for the upcoming jam-packed holiday season. You can do this by using money- and energy-saving practices when running your HVAC system. These will help you maintain a comfortable indoor temperature throughout the season without straining your equipment and increasing your energy bills.
Read on as A-1 Comfort Care Heating, Cooling & Plumbing, one of the area’s top local HVAC installation contractors, enumerates a few cost-efficient ways to operate your HVAC system during the fall season.
One of the most common misconceptions in using HVAC systems is that turning your unit off will improve its energy efficiency. The fact is that it just puts unnecessary strain on your HVAC when you turn it back on, which can lead to higher energy bills.
To effectively lower your energy costs, turn your thermostat up by 2 degrees higher than your current indoor temperature. Doing this will make your device adjust more easily to the temperature outdoors, keeping your living space comfortable without forcing your HVAC system to work harder.
Generally, your thermostat is set to keep your HVAC working until it reaches a comfortable indoor temperature. To avoid repeated adjustments during temperature spikes and drops during fall, it’s best to set your unit to auto mode. To learn more about HVAC settings, talk to a professional who offers residential HVAC services.
Allowing cool air to freely circulate in your home will help lessen your need for your HVAC system. One way to do this is by using your ceiling fan to help your HVAC system maintain a more comfortable temperature in your residence.
