Summer Tips for Energy Savings
Summer Tips to save energy. This blog is meant to help the whole community to economize on home energy in this hot summer. And who does not want to save some extra money, we can use for something else? I know that if we make changes to our daily routine can lower your electric bill this summer of 2016, so let’s start with these small changes.
A / C: This is a very important factor in our homes and helps us survive the tremendous heat if not used properly can cost us dearly this summer. It is important to keep to a normal temperature, 75 ° F or above. Never set it down less than here. The mistake that many make is that we turn off the A/C when we are not home and actually consume more. Since the house is very hot the A/C will consume a lot of energy to reach the desired temperature. If you are a person who works or leaves home for more than 4 hours during the day, I will give a good tip for your A / C, I personally do this daily. When leaving the house raise the thermostat a little above 80, it will turn on the A / C during the time you are away but fewer times. If you shut off the A/C daily, the temperature will rise in your home and turn it back down and consume even more energy, so now you know, just turn up the temperature. When you return home lower the temperature but not less than 72 degrees. Summer Tips for Energy Savings

It is recommended to change your filter every 60 days or before this gets dusty. These changes will help your A/C system and will help air quality and save a bundle in your pocket.
Weather-strip: Weather stripping is the best remedy for leaks in air conditioning this summer. Plugging these gaps prevents cold air out this summer and also the amount of dust that enters your home. It is said that these air leaks can increase your bill by up to 25%, so it’s important to cover all these leaks. The weather strips are sponge strips that are placed under doors or window frames.
