- First, be sure to clean or replace your air filters are per the manufacturers recommendations.
- To reduce heat gain, pull drapes or shades over sun-facing windows.
- When possible, minimize mid-day activities that add humidity to the air, such as washing and drying clothes, showering, and cooking. When doing these activities use ventilating fans
- Program your thermostat 3 degrees higher in the
summer or 3 degrees lower in the winter when you
are not at home.
- Have your air ducts checked when moving into a
new home, or after work has been done on the
attic (i.e.: Electrical, cable).
- Have your system maintained annually by a
professional.
*Note: These are general guidelines.
