1. Have your HVAC system professionally inspected
A professional HVAC check for leaks and other issues helps ensure it’s working optimally.
2. Plant some trees
Have abundant sunshine pouring into your home? Consider planting a tree or bush to block some sunlight and lower your utility bills.
3. Get smart
Use technology to bring down your energy costs. Program or control your thermostat from a connected device while you are away.
4. Time your chores
Using large appliances, like a washing machine and dishwasher, can add extra heat to your home, especially if you live in a small space. Use these machines after dark, when it’s generally cooler outside.
5. Get grilling
Keep the house cooler by doing your cooking outside whenever possible.
