Summer’s here, and with it comes soaring temperatures and – you guessed it – skyrocketing energy bills. But fear not, fellow energy geeks! By implementing some smart strategies, you can keep your cool and keep your wallet happy.

Supercharge Your AC Efficiency:

• Thermostat Tune-Up: Bump up your thermostat a few degrees (every degree counts!). Invest in a programmable thermostat to automatically adjust temperatures when you’re away.
• Filter Frenzy: A clogged air conditioner filter forces your system to work harder. Clean or replace your filter regularly for optimal airflow and efficiency.
• Seal the Deal: Drafty windows and doors are energy leaks. Seal cracks and weatherstrip windows to prevent cool air from escaping and hot air from sneaking in.

Embrace the Power of Passive Cooling:

• Harness the Night: Open windows at night when temperatures dip to let cooler air circulate. Close them up tight during the day to trap that cool air inside.
• Fan Fantastic: Ceiling fans set to counter-clockwise create a windchill effect, making you feel cooler without cranking up the AC.
• Blinds Before Blasts: Block the sun’s rays with blinds and curtains during the day to keep your home naturally cooler.

Energy-Savvy Habits Make a Big Difference:

• Cooking Clever: Ditch the oven’s heat – grill outdoors or whip up no-cook meals. When using the oven, preheat only when necessary, and turn it off a few minutes before your food finishes cooking.
• Laundry Lowdown: Hang clothes to dry whenever possible. Skip the dryer’s heat, especially during peak sun hours.
• Lighten Up: Swap out incandescent bulbs for energy-efficient LEDs. Turn off lights when you leave a room. Every little bit helps!
