Green-Home Strategies for Enhancing Energy Efficiency in Your HVAC System

As a homeowner, you rely on your HVAC system to keep you comfortable throughout the year. But increasing energy costs require creative thinking to keep your monthly heating and cooling bill under control. Luckily, some great advancements in energy-efficient HVAC systems have revolutionized how we create a greener living space.

Smart Thermostats

If you own a newer home, then you likely have a smart thermostat to control the temperature. Smart thermostats monitor and adjust your home’s temperature. They also allow users to set specific schedules, meaning you can save money by programming your thermostat to be cooler when no one is home and warmer when people are expected to arrive. Key features of a smart thermostat include:

  • Easy to use touchscreen
  • Simple setup
  • Optimizable settings

These thermostats are even voice-controlled, allowing homeowners to easily adjust the temperature of their home with a few simple commands. Popular at-home automation systems such as Google Home, Amazon Alexa, and Apple Homekit are compatible with most smart thermostats on the market.

Variable-Speed Compressors

A variable-speed compressor is different than a single-speed system in several ways. First, a variable-speed system can better adjust itself to changing temperatures in your home. It not only results in improved energy efficiency, but it also provides greater comfort and better humidity control. Variable-speed compressors typically run at a lower speed than single-speed models, which reduces wear and tear on your unit.

State-of-the-Art Air Filtration Systems

What if you could improve your health and save money at the same time? Air filtration systems are designed to keep your home clean and dust-free while improving indoor air quality. The latest advancements allow homeowners to customize their air filtration system to their specific needs. The air purifier can be installed directly inside the unit, allowing the air to be filtered and helping the entire house to benefit from improved air quality.
