Tips to Save Energy & Money this Winter

When your heating equipment works at peak efficiency, you reap the benefits in comfort and savings. Proper maintenance of your system is key for performance. An energy-efficient home will keep your family comfortable while saving you money.

• Get a heating system tune-up. Just as a tune-up for your car can improve your gas mileage, a yearly tune-up of your heating and cooling system can improve efficiency and comfort. Myers Conditioning can perform an annual inspection and routine system maintenance to make sure your furnace is operating at peak performance. 

• Replace furnace filters a minimum of every three months, especially if you have pets. A dirty or clogged filter will demand more energy and slow down the heating process. Make sure your furnace and hot water heater are properly ventilated.

• Allow heat to circulate. Once you have your furnace operating at peak performance, go through your home to be sure that heat is circulating properly. Prevent furniture, draperies and rugs from obstructing registers and heat vents. Keep radiators and registers dust-free.

• Install an ENERGY STAR® programmable thermostat. This type of thermostat will automatically change settings at certain times of day. Or if you're ready to replace your current heating equipment, high-efficiency models really pay off. Install an ENERGY STAR® high-efficiency furnace or boiler. Call Myers Conditioning at 732-331-3870 for a free consultation.
