Reducing Your Heating and Cooling Bill in North Carolina

According to the U.S. Department of Energy, heating and cooling your home accounts for over half of the average household's energy consumption. You may be spending more than you have to. There are a variety of reasons why you may not be efficiently heating and cooling your home. If your home is not properly insulated and sealed, you could be losing air though the cracks. If you don't have updated windows and doors, it may surprise you the amount of energy that can escape. In this blog, we're going to provide some tips on how to more efficiently heat and cool your home, as well as explain how installing a Temper Shield will help too.

Cooling

The biggest reason your home is using so much energy to cool your home is probably because your air conditioning unit is not working efficiently. You need to frequently replace the filter on it during the warmer months. You should have your air conditioner serviced every couple of years to verify it is working at maximum efficiency.

Heating

Heating your home can be more efficient when you install a programmable thermostat. This will allow you to heat your home only during the most necessary hours of the day. If you work all day, then you can keep it cooler during those hours and have it kick on when you get home. Also, insulating your water heater can be an effective way to reduce your heating costs.

Temper Shield Radiant Barrier

Once you have your appliances working correctly, a Temper Shield works to keep the warm or cool air in, depending on the season. A Temper Shield will keep the heat out during the summer and keep the heat in during the winter. This technology can greatly reduce the amount of energy being lost between your home and the outside. You can install Temper Shield all throughout your home, which may dramatically reduce your heating and cooling bills.
