Cooling Efficiency

Bookmark and Share

During the hot summer months, your air conditioner can be your main energy user. Here are ways to efficiently keep your home cool and keep energy costs low:

  • Keep your drapes and shades closed during the day to keep unwanted heat out of your home.
  • Ventilate when it's cool outside. Many nights in Texas are cool and dry, even after the hottest days. Cut your cooling costs by opening windows when it's cooler outside than inside.
  • Insulate your duct work. Even ducts that do not appear to be leaking are conducting conditioned air and wasting energy. Insulating your duct work can help you save 20-30% on heating and cooling expenses.
  • Whole house fans help cool your home by pulling cool air through the house and exhausting warm air through the attic. They are effective when operated at night and when the outside air is cooler than the inside.
  • To air condition your home, consider installing a heat pump that will work year-round to cool your home in the summer and heat your home in the winter.
  • Use microwave ovens and gas barbeques to prepare meals. Not only do they use less energy, but they won't warm up the inside of your home, forcing your air conditioner and refrigerator to work over-time.
