Ways to Save Money on HVAC Costs
Repairing or replacing your HVAC system when needed is crucial, but can be expensive. Luckily, there are steps you can take to minimize wear and tear over time on your system.
Change the position
Leaving your blinds open during the winter allows passive solar heating to warm your home. Closing the blinds during the summer helps prevent the heat from getting inside.
Monitor for problems
Keep an eye on your system for issues, for example by routinely checking your thermostat and energy bills. This helps you address issues before they get too expensive.
Change filters regularly
Replacing or cleaning your air filters every 30–90 days helps air flow smoothly through your system. Also try to keep debris away from the external sections of your HVAC system.
Keep your system clean
Keeping your grills, condenser fan blades, ductwork, and indoor evaporator coil clean helps your HVAC system function effectively and lowers the risk of mold.

Capacity is measured in tons, with one ton equating to 12,000 BTU per hour. Residential systems typically range from 1 to 5 tons.
There's no universal rule for HVAC sizing. It varies widely based on your home's construction, with a ton of air conditioning covering between 300 to 800 square feet. A professional evaluation is necessary to determine the perfect size for your home.
Efficiency is measured by the Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER), indicating the amount of cooling per dollar of electricity. SEER values range from 13 to 17, with higher values representing greater efficiency.
Enhancing efficiency involves regularly cleaning or replacing filters, keeping the blower on for consistent airflow, and shading windows to reduce solar heat gain.
Not necessarily. Larger systems can lead to discomfort and higher costs due to inefficiency from frequent cycling and poor humidity control.
There's no standard duration. Ideally, an air conditioner should balance the heat load on very hot days without excessive cycling.
Systems that run less frequently may be more economical and efficient. A system that's too small and runs continuously can be more cost-effective than a larger, frequently cycling system.
The output temperature should be 18°-20° cooler than the incoming air under optimal conditions, though this can vary with humidity levels and indoor temperatures.
In summer, aim for 78°-80°, and in winter, 70°-72°. Avoid setting drastic temperature swings to prevent overworking your unit.
Programmable thermostats offer accuracy and efficiency, allowing you to set temperatures for different times without manual adjustments.
