How to Save Money on Your Energy Bills with HVAC Maintenance

Heating and cooling costs account for a significant portion of your home’s energy bills, and a poorly maintained HVAC system can make those bills even higher. Regular maintenance of your HVAC system can help you save money on your energy bills in the following ways:

Increased efficiency: A properly maintained HVAC system runs more efficiently, using less energy to heat or cool your home. This translates into lower energy bills.
Longer lifespan: A well-maintained HVAC system lasts longer, reducing the need for costly repairs or replacement.
Reduced repairs: Regular maintenance can help prevent costly repairs by catching small problems before they become larger ones. Here are some specific ways to save money on your energy bills with HVAC maintenance:
Replace air filters regularly: Dirty air filters can reduce the efficiency of your HVAC system, increasing energy usage and costs. Make sure to replace your air filters every 1-3 months, depending on usage and the type of filter.
Clean condenser coils: Dirty condenser coils can cause your HVAC system to work harder, using more energy and increasing your energy bills. Make sure to have your condenser coils cleaned annually by a professional.
Seal ducts: Leaky ducts can cause your HVAC system to work harder to heat or cool your home, using more energy and increasing your bills. Make sure to have your ducts inspected for leaks and sealed as necessary.
Schedule annual maintenance: Annual maintenance of your HVAC system can help prevent problems and ensure that your system is running efficiently. This can help you save money on energy bills and avoid costly repairs. Upgrade to a programmable thermostat: A programmable thermostat allows you to set different temperatures for different times of day, reducing energy usage and costs. Make sure to set your thermostat to a higher temperature in the summer and a lower temperature in the winter to save on energy costs.
In summary, regular HVAC maintenance can help you save money on your energy bills by increasing efficiency, reducing repairs, and extending the lifespan of your system. Be sure to replace air filters regularly, clean condenser coils, seal ducts, schedule annual maintenance, and upgrade to a programmable thermostat to maximize your savings.

Representative was on time, courteous, and gracious about the fact there was no guarantee our facility (a non-profit)would be able to move forward with this project.

Callum was the HVac technician assigned to install a heat pump in to our home. For different reasons, none any fault of his or Climatec, Callum had to come back a couple of times to complete the project. He never failed to turn up when he promised to do so, was incredibly professional and polite. We are absolutely thrilled with the outcome of the job he completed. Would give 10 stars to both Callum and the rest of the team at Climatec if we could. An all around great experience. Thanks so much guys!

I’ve dealt with a few HVAC companies over the years, from service & repair to install. Climatec is my first call, estimates are accurate, knowledge is up to date and the work is clean.
