Green Tips

• CLEAN FILTERS ELIMINATE EXPENSIVE OPERATING COSTS AND BREAKDOWNS, SIMPLE TO DO WITH GREAT REWARDS.

• PROGRAMMABLE THERMOSTATS WILL QUICKLY PAY FOR THEMSELVES. WHY HEAT/COOL YOUR HOME WHEN YOU ARE NOT THERE? EASY TO PROGRAM, START SAVING NOW. REMEMBER, EVERY DEGREE YOU LOWER THE THERMOSTAT IN THE WINTER (VICE VERSA IN SUMMER) SAVES YOU MONEY ON YOUR UTILITY BILL AND SAVES OUR PLANET!

• YOU MAINTAIN YOUR CAR PERIODICALLY; YOU WANT THE SAME FOR YOUR HEATING AND COOLING EQUIPMENT INVESTMENT. MAINTAIN YOUR SYSTEM ANNUALLY, SAVE MONEY, AND REDUCE UNWANTED EQUIPMENT FAILURE.

• MOVE FURNITURE AWAY FROM HEATING VENTS. THIS WILL ALLOW FOR BETTER AIR MOVEMENT, IMPROVE YOUR COMFORT, AND MAY ALSO LOWER YOUR HEATING AND COOLING COSTS.

• WHILE YOUR FURNACE IS RUNNING, PUT YOUR HAND OVER EACH HEAT VENT AND CHECK FOR AIR FLOW. IF YOU DON’T FEEL ANYTHING, YOU MAY BE LOSING VALUABLE HEAT OR COOLING UNDER YOUR HOUSE.

• DURING COLD WEATHER MONTHS, CLOSE FOUNDATION VENTS AND INSTALL FOAM BLOCKS TO PREVENT COLD AIR FROM BEING ALLOWED IN THE CRAWL SPACE WHERE YOUR DUCTS AND WATER PIPES CAN BE AFFECTED.

• ADDING HUMIDITY TO YOUR HOME MAKES YOUR HOUSE FEEL ABOUT TWO DEGREES WARMER THAN IT IS. EACH DEGREE REPRESENTS SAVINGS ON YOUR UTILITY BILL AND HELPS WITH DRY SKIN AND CRACKING NOSES.

• DURING THE SUMMER, HAVE THE PILOT LIGHT TURNED OFF ON YOUR GAS FIREPLACE. THIS WILL SAVE YOU MONEY ON YOUR GAS BILL.

• INDOOR AIR QUALITY PRODUCTS ARE THE WAVE OF THE FUTURE. HOMES ARE BEING BUILT SO TIGHT THAT WE NEED TO INTRODUCE OUTSIDE AIR TO PROVIDE A BETTER AND HEALTHIER ENVIRONMENT. HUMIDIFICATION, VENTILATION AND FILTERED AIR WILL HELP KEEP YOU HEALTHY AND SAFE FROM BACTERIA, ODORS AND SPORES.

• RUN A CONTINUOUS FAN ON YOUR FURNACE OR AIR HANDLER TO TAKE FULL ADVANTAGE OF YOUR FILTERED INDOOR AIR QUALITY; THEY ONLY WORK WHEN THE FAN IS RUNNING.

• CLOSING REGISTERS TO ELIMINATE HEATING OR COOLING IN UNDER- USED SPACES CAUSES SYSTEM STRESS; ZONING DOES NOT.

• ZONING YOUR HOME PUTS THE COOLING AND HEATING IN THE ROOMS YOU USE MOST, PROVIDING INCREASED COMFORT AND SAVINGS.

• IF YOU HAVE A FAN SWITCH ON YOUR THERMOSTAT AND LIVE IN A TWO-STORY HOUSE, TURN THE FAN SWITCH TO THE “ON” POSITION AT LEAST DURING THE DAY AND IT WILL HELP REGULATE THE TEMPERATURE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN UPSTAIRS AND DOWN.

• TAKE ADVANTAGE OF ALL THE TAX CREDITS THAT ARE AVAILABLE; YOU WILL SAVE MONEY AND ENERGY!
