Proper Insulation and Sealing

One of the best ways to save energy with your HVAC system this summer is to ensure your home is properly insulated and sealed. Poor insulation and air leaks can cause your HVAC system to work overtime, increasing your energy consumption and your bills. Check your home's insulation, especially in the attic, as hot air can enter your home through the roof, causing your HVAC system to work harder. In addition to insulation, check your home for air leaks, particularly around windows and doors. Use caulk or weatherstripping to seal these leaks and keep the cool air inside. By keeping your home well-insulated and sealed, you'll optimize your HVAC system's performance, resulting in energy savings and a more comfortable home.
