Although they help us get the right temperature for our homes, the use of Air Conditioning systems can be quite expensive. Aside from the energy cost, doing repairs and maintenance are added expense. Air Conditioning service, cleaning and fixing damages need to be handled right away to keep your ac units to function efficiently.
Being a homeowner means being smart when it comes to spending money for home maintenance. If there are opportunities to minimize costs and spend less, we should grab them. Here are some things you can do to help you save money on your AC system efficiency:
(1) Keep it clean
The heat absorbed in your home is released outside by the outdoor condenser unit. It is important to check and clean this part of your AC system in order to prevent airflow interference. Make sure that it is clean and free from dirt and debris.
(2) Keep the air flowing
Indoor vents need to be cleaned regularly in order to keep a steady airflow and prevent a poor air quality to spread in your home. Avoid blocking it with home items like furniture or blinds.
(3) Make the necessary adjustments
Another technique in saving money is by adjusting your thermostat. Depending on the hotness and coolness of the weather, you can adjust your thermostat accordingly in your AC system. If you have a smart or programmable one, you can adjust it automatically based on the schedule you want.
(4) Know where to place your appliances
If your thermostat is near heat-releasing appliances, it might give the impression that the air needs to be cooled more. This will cause your air conditioning system to work harder than it needs to, thus requiring more energy and increasing your bills.
(5) Keep your it cool
If you turn your AC system on, it might be wise to keep your curtains and blinds closed. This will minimize the heat coming into your house.
(6) Keep it from clogging
It is important to clear your drain line to prevent water to accumulate around your air conditioning unit. Clearing it with bleach and water will remove any blockage.
(7) Know what and when to use your appliances
It is best to avoid using your dryer and oven to prevent warmer air in your house particularly during hot hours. Simple things like being wise on when to use certain appliances can help you save energy and money.
(8) Check for leaks.
In order to use 100% of your conditioned air, make sure that your ductworks are sealed and there are no open opportunities for leaks. Either use specialized duct-sealing tape or call professionals to do it for you to ensure proper sealing. You might need the help of a professional AC service company in order to properly assess this.
The steps above can prevent you from spending so much when it is actually manageable. Being smart on knowing the parts of your air conditioning system will help you understand how it works and what to do when problems arise. It is also highly recommended to have your HVAC system be checked by an AC service company at least once a year to ensure that everything is good.
