You Have The Power
Small actions combined can have a big impact on summer energy bills.
- The best way to lower energy use during summer months is to raise the thermostat to the highest setting that’s comfortable.
- Ceiling fans can also help you feel cooler, but remember to turn them off when you leave the room.
- On warm summer nights, fire up the grill to keep additional heat out of the kitchen.
- Remember to change air filters often so your cooling system doesn’t have to work harder than necessary.
