DID YOU KNOW?
Switching out dirty HVAC filters can reduce energy use by 5% to 15%. [1] That’s not just good for your utility bill — it’s better for your health, too.
STAY INFORMED
- HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) systems account for nearly half of energy usage in an average home or commercial building. [1]
- Dust, pollen, mold, and debris build up in ducts and filters over time, reducing airflow, increasing energy consumption, and lowering air quality. [1]
- Regular maintenance helps your HVAC system run more efficiently, extends equipment life, and reduces repair costs.
HELPFUL TIPS
1. Replace Air Filters Regularly
- Change HVAC filters every 1 to 3 months depending on system usage and filter type. Clogged filters force your system to work harder. [1]
2. Install a Programmable Thermostat
- Use a programmable or smart thermostat to adjust temperatures automatically during work hours, evenings, or while away. This can reduce energy waste significantly. [2]
3. Keep Vents Clear
- Ensure vents and returns aren’t blocked by furniture, rugs, or clutter. Clear airflow improves performance and comfort throughout your space.
4. Schedule Professional Maintenance
- Have a certified technician inspect and tune up your HVAC system twice a year — once before cooling season and once before heating. [1]
ENERGY SAFETY REMINDER
A well-maintained HVAC system isn’t just more efficient — it’s safer and healthier for everyone indoors. Don’t wait until something breaks. Stay ahead with proactive maintenance and smart energy use.
