Checking Your Home for Energy Efficiency for Warmer Weather

A maintenance professional works on an HVAC unit for a Trademasters member.

Making sure your home is running efficiently is important to ensure your bills aren’t skyrocketing and to avoid emergency home maintenance services. There are many ways to improve your home energy efficiency including looking at your home insulation, checking for an energy efficient HVAC system, window replacement, and front door replacement. If you’re interested in these energy saving tips for summer, keep reading and find out where you can schedule consistently great home maintenance service near you.

Door and Window Replacement and Energy Audits

In spring and summer especially, checking to see if your windows and doors are energy efficient can save you money on air conditioning and air regulation. Trademasters offers a range of services for windows and doors including replacement, an energy audit for both, and an assessment of energy efficiency with ratings and maintenance requirements. Your windows and doors may leak your freshly cooled air in the warm months and heated air in the cold ones so consider getting them checked or replaced to save your HVAC from overworking itself. Installing energy efficient windows is a simple way to get your home ready for the warmer weather.

HVAC Maintenance And Home Insulation

Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems become less efficient as they age but with regular maintenance they can be maintained and work efficiently for longer. Having your HVAC checked in the spring and fall to prepare for the upcoming seasons allows you to prevent and troubleshoot issues caused by extreme weather. Whether you need a unit repair, air quality check, or a test for energy efficiency, a Trademasters membership gives you access to all of those services and more. Efficient air heating and cooling can also help you save money on electricity and utility bills, letting you have more to spend on fun summer activities. 

Checking on your home insulation also ties into HVAC efficiency. If your home is not properly insulated, the cool or warm air can leak out of your home, causing your HVAC to work overtime to keep the inside of your home cool. Bad insulation will also let the heat from outside in, again making your HVAC work harder. Looking at your insulation levels can help you avoid this issue and extra costs incurred by overextending your HVAC’s capacity. 

If you want to streamline the process of home maintenance and prepare your home to be efficient for the warmer months, become a Trademasters member and let us handle the hard stuff.

While most people know about central air conditioning and portable AC (like window air conditioning units) ductless cooling might be new to them.

Staying Cool Without Breaking the Bank

If you’re like most people, saving money on your household expenses is a top priority. And heating and air conditioning bills are likely one of your top expenditures. In fact, the U.S. Energy Information Administration indicates that your air conditioning system alone accounts for about 12 percent of your home energy expenses. While utility bills are a part of life, we can still take some measures to conserve energy – and ultimately save money.
