6 Energy Saving Tips for Spring in Eden, NC

Spring is finally here in Eden, NC! Follow these six energy saving tips from Heat & Air Controllers for more efficient air conditioning this spring.

Clean your air vents

Use a damp rag to wipe down all the air vent grills in your home. This will allow for more efficient air flow and reduce allergy symptoms during spring.

Use your ceiling fans

Don’t forget to use your ceiling fans during spring and summer! Fans provide quick, effective and affordable cooling, and all they require is a quick flip of the switch! However, if you used your fan during winter, remember to change the setting to forward, or counterclockwise, for spring.

Close window blinds in Eden, NC

While open window blinds will lower your energy bills during winter, this will have the opposite effect in spring and summer. Make sure to close your window blinds this spring to prevent sunlight from naturally heating your home.

Energy saving clean air filters

Make sure to change your air filter once a month this spring. Dirty air filters can cause major problems with your HVAC system and increase allergy symptoms. On the other hand, clean air filters will lower energy bills, reduce repairs and improve indoor air quality.

Use a programmable thermostat

Upgrade to a programmable thermostat this spring for more efficient cooling. You can set your programmable thermostat to raise the temperature when the house is empty during the day, then cool it again just before everyone comes back home. This ensures you don’t waste money cooling an empty home during spring and summer.
