5 ways to save this summer
07/17/2023
When the fun in the sun gets too hot, it's time to cool off indoors. Use these five tips to take a refreshing break from the sun without breaking the bank.
-
Have your air conditioner inspected. Annual air conditioner maintenance can make sure your unit is operating at peak efficiency and help to avoid breakdowns during the hot summer months.
-
Weatherize your home. Make sure your home is properly insulated and air-sealed to keep it cooler longer.
-
Adjust the thermostat. Adjusting the thermostat when you're not inside can make a big difference in the cost of air conditioning while still keeping your home comfortable.
-
Use window treatments. Closing thermal curtains when direct sun is hitting the window can block heat and keep your home cooler.
-
Flip on the ceiling fan. Flipping on the ceiling fan when you're in a room makes you feel up to four degrees cooler without having to crank the air conditioning. Just be sure to turn off the fan when you leave the room.
