3 Ways to Improve Heating and Cooling This Year 

Heading into the new year is a chance for homeowners to reevaluate their HVAC system to find ways to lessen their utility bills, boost energy savings, and keep maintenance low. Here are three HVAC expert-approved ways to improve the performance of a heating and cooling system in 2022.

Optimize the Temperature Settings temperature

The ideal temperature settings for each home will vary based on climate and the homeowner's preferences, but keeping the temperature consistent is always key to keeping energy usage low. When the air conditioning is turning on and off constantly, it uses more energy, making for higher energy bills and putting more strain on the system overall leading to more frequent repairs. 

Smart thermostats and programmable thermostats make it easier to optimize the temperature settings. Thermostat replacement can be easy for homeowners to improve their heating and cooling this year. Smart thermostats learn the energy usage patterns of the home and make adjustments automatically. 

Schedule Bi-Annual Maintenance calendar

One should do AC maintenance and heating maintenance at least twice a year. Air conditioning maintenance involves:
  • Cleaning the inside of the unit
  • Replacing coolant fluid
  • Checking for worn-out parts

Heating maintenance can be more complicated due to the high temperatures within a furnace or boiler and should always be left to the experts. 

Keeping up with HVAC system maintenance will promote the system's longevity by preventing unnecessary repairs. During regularly scheduled maintenance, the technician will have a chance to look over the system for signs of damage that could indicate a larger problem. Doing maintenance just twice a year can drastically extend the lifespan of the heating and cooling system. 

Change the Air Filters Often 

Air filters are an important aspect of a central air system. The filtration system cleans dust, dirt, pet hair, dander, and other debris from the air as it circulates. When the air filter becomes too dirty, dust bunnies can take over the HVAC system and eventually cause a system failure. Dirty air filters can also cause allergic reactions to flare up from the airborne contaminants. 

Most air filters need to be replaced every three months, but in homes with many family members, multiple pets, or cigarette smokers, the filter may need to be replaced every month or every other month. Forgetting to change the filter may not seem like a big deal, but this mistake can cause a total HVAC system failure that is difficult to repair. 

AC filter replacement is usually a simple process, but homeowners unable to do it themselves should contact a local AC company for filter replacement services. An experienced HVAC technician can help the homeowner determine which air filter is right for their system and how often they should optimally replace it.
