Rethink Your HVAC

Your heating and cooling system is a significant contributor to your energy expenditure. By optimizing it, you can achieve substantial energy savings. We recommend regular maintenance of air filters, installation of a smart thermostat, and ensuring your system is free from air leaks. These steps not only help you save money but also prolong the lifespan of your heater and air conditioner.

Enhance Your Electrical System

An optimized electrical system is key to saving energy. We specialize in upgrading and repairing electrical systems to ensure they operate at peak efficiency. From fixing wiring to installing energy-energy-efficient lighting, every detail matters in curbing energy costs.

Improve Your Insulation

Proper insulation plays a critical role in maintaining your home’s temperature and reducing energy bills. Insufficient insulation leads to heat loss in winter and heat gain in summer, forcing your cooling and heating systems to work overtime. Ensure your home is properly insulated to retain hot air in winter and cold air in the summer.

Use Electricity Timers

Electricity timers are an excellent way to manage your energy use effectively. They allow you to automate the operation of your electrical devices, ensuring they run only when needed. This not only helps in saving energy but also in reducing your electricity costs.

Get Smart

Incorporating smart thermostats and energy-saving programs into your home automation can significantly cut down on energy consumption. These devices automatically adjust your home’s temperature settings, ensuring optimal comfort while minimizing energy use.

Change Your Habits

Simple changes in daily habits can lead to significant energy savings. Turning off lights when not in use, setting your water heater temperature appropriately, and using natural light effectively are just a few ways to conserve energy. Our team provides valuable insights to help you make these habit changes seamlessly.

Here are some more changes that can make a big difference, both for Mother Nature and for your annual energy bill:

  • To help your whole household use less energy, adjust your water heater to a lower temperature or raise your refrigerator temperature settings by 1-2 degrees.
  • In summer, turn ceiling fans on and close your curtains to use less electricity on air conditioning. In winter, open the curtains during periods of direct sunlight rather than immediately cranking up the heat.
  • Only run dishwashers and washing machines when they are full since these appliances use almost the exact same amount of energy either way.
  • Wash your clothes in cold water and hang them up to dry whenever possible. This can make a significant dent in your energy bills.
  • Turn off lights when leaving rooms and take advantage of natural light whenever possible.
  • Shorten the length of your showers to help your hot water heater use less energy.
  • Change HVAC unit filters at the recommended intervals. Dirty air filters make your unit work harder, using more electricity.
  • Get educated about how renewable energy is used in your local area. Renewable energy sources may include wind turbines, solar panels, and more.
