4 Energy Saving Tips For International Earth Day | Air Comfort HVAC

Every homeowner wants to save more energy–and money!–at home, and March is a great time to revisit some New Year’s Resolutions. For those of you who have set goals to be more green-minded…did you know that March 20 was the original Earth Day? It’s true! While America now celebrates Earth Day in April, the first International Earth Day took place on March 21, 1970.

In honor of the holiday, Air Comfort HVAC has gathered some tips for homeowners to save more money and more energy at home–without too much of a sacrifice.

Slay your home’s energy vampires.
Unplug your appliances when not in use for huge energy savings. Televisions, phone chargers, toasters, coffee makers, computers and printers are some of the most common culprits in most people’s homes.

Look to the stars… Energy Star!
Any time you’re in the market for new (or previously owned) appliances, electronics,or lighting, check for the Energy Star label. It’s a simple thing, but simply by purchasing Energy Star-rated products, you’ll be maximizing savings on your monthly energy bills.

Put your comfort system on autopilot
Everyone should get a programmable thermostat installed. It’s so easy to forget to set the AC or heat to the right temperature day in and day out. Today’s programmable thermostats are life-changing. You can easily regulate your home’s temperature settings according to your specific needs and stop wasting money on heating or cooling costs when no one is home.

Don’t let drips go down the drain.
Do you have any leaking faucets or toilets? We hope not, because if so, you’re actually watching your money and resources go down the drain. Anytime you notice a leak, you should get the situation assessed promptly.
