But I also enjoy adding fresh and unique advice to the mix
Recently, I’ve been mulling over ideas for how to cut cooling costs for the upcoming hot summer. I gave my 20-year business partner in HVAC, who I wanted to talk to, a call yesterday. Actually, they were the ones who put in the residential HVAC system for this home. It was largely an “as is” purchase when we bought the property. Simply getting rid of the property was all the seller wanted to do. There were numerous issues that needed to be resolved, though. We saved tens of thousands of dollars because we were prepared to replace the HVAC system and make numerous other improvements. Surprisingly, I was able to get professionals, family members, and friends to help us get the renovation done the way we wanted. We still employ the HVAC company we picked. To schedule the air conditioning tune-up, I also called the HVAC company yesterday. I carry out this every year, and it forms the cornerstone of my approach to cutting costs when it comes to air conditioning. We go through a summer that is extremely hot and humid. The house must be kept tightly sealed, the thermostat must be monitored, and peak sunlight heating must be avoided. These are the essentials. But I also enjoy adding fresh and unique advice to the mix. By grilling outside this summer, I’m going to completely avoid heating the house this year. With all that heat energy, the stove and the oven seriously reduce the heat pump’s efficiency. When it comes to increasing the savings on air conditioning costs, this might be a big deal for us.
