As spring rolls in, it’s the perfect time to give your home a fresh start—and that includes your energy habits. A few simple steps can help you improve efficiency, reduce energy waste, and ultimately save money on your utility bill.
Dirty air filters can make your HVAC system work harder, leading to increased energy use. Replacing your filters every 1-3 months can improve airflow and efficiency.
Check around doors, windows, and vents for air leaks. Sealing gaps with weatherstripping or caulk helps maintain consistent indoor temperatures and prevents energy loss.
Take advantage of spring’s milder temperatures by adjusting your thermostat. Setting it a few degrees higher when you're away can reduce your cooling costs.
Switching to energy-efficient LED bulbs can reduce lighting energy use by up to 90% compared to traditional incandescent bulbs.
Even when turned off, electronics can draw power. Unplug devices you’re not using or use a power strip to easily cut power to multiple devices at once.
Schedule a professional inspection to ensure your HVAC system is operating at peak performance before summer arrives. A well-maintained system uses less energy and keeps your home comfortable.
Dust and debris can build up in your vents, making your system work harder. Cleaning them regularly improves air quality and system efficiency.
If you’re upgrading appliances this spring, look for ENERGY STAR®-rated models that consume less energy while delivering top performance.
By implementing these simple steps, you can enjoy a cleaner home and a more efficient energy bill this spring.
