Cooling Trends For A More Comfortable Home

As homeowners are more energy conscious, they look for ways in the home to do their unique part in conserving the limited resources we have on this planet. One of the areas where conservation efforts are on the rise in with home heating and cooling. Consider a few of these top 5 heating & air conditioning trends of 2015.

If you haven't already called your local HVAC repair company for an inspection of the heating and cooling system in the house, now is the time. One inspection can save a homeowner thousands of dollars each year in emergency repair bills. The local technicians is trained to easily spot potential trouble while it is a minor repair.

The programmable thermostat is one small device that can easily save the homeowner money each year. By allowing this small device to raise and lower the interior temperature at preset times, you eliminate wasting energy to heat and cool an empty home. Even dropping the settings a few degrees can have a huge positive and long lasting effect on your bills and the resources of the planet.

A unique trend that grew popular in 2015 was the ability to automate features like lighting into the HVAC system. The system could in fact turn on and off certain lights around the home at preset times to save energy. Rather than the exterior lights on all night or coming on too early, the system can be programmed to work at more efficient times.

Energy rated HVAC systems are nothing new, but in 2015 these units became even more efficient. Working less harder to produce the same interior temperature puts less of a strain on the local energy grid. Another huge benefit is that the moving parts of the system run more efficient and last longer, reducing the need to replace parts as often.

Taking the programmable thermostat one step further, creating a smart home begins with being able to program a device to run the air conditioning less while keeping the home cooler.

Whether this means having the blinds and curtains automatically closed at the hottest time of day, or tuning on ceiling fans automatically to circulate air, smart homes are becoming more popular as we march through this decade.
