With               the               price               of               energy               always               rising,               even               small               changes               in               furnace               efficiency               can               result               in               big               savings.

Your               furnace               accounts               for               the               majority               of               energy               used               in               your               home;               so               if               you               are               looking               for               ways               to               save               on               energy               bills,               start               with               your               furnace.

It               will               offer               the               largest               savings               for               your               household,               and               there               are               a               few               simple               things               you               can               do               yourself               to               make               your               furnace               operate               at               peak               efficiency.

Check               Your               Filter
               Very               few               people               realize               just               how               important               a               clean               filter               is               to               the               efficiency               of               a               home               heating               system.

This               is               the               simplest               and               most               important               task               you               can               do               yourself               to               make               your               furnace               operate               at               its               very               best.

A               dirty               filter               increases               the               amount               of               work               the               blower               motor               in               your               furnace               has               to               do               in               order               to               circulate               air               throughout               your               home.

In               other               words,               a               dirty               filter               means               more               energy               must               be               used               to               move               warm               air               into               your               living               area.
               In               addition,               poor               air               circulation               prevents               efficient               heat               transfer               from               the               heat               exchanger               to               the               air               circulating               through               the               furnace.

Translation:               Poor               air               circulation               means               poor               heat               transfer,               which               results               in               your               furnace               burning               more               fuel               to               heat               less.
               The               rule               of               thumb               is               to               replace               your               filter               every               30               days.

As               for               the               type               of               filter               to               use,               believe               it               or               not,               the               cheaper               filters               are               better.

Here               is               why.

The               cheap               filters               (blue               and               cost               about               $1)               offer               less               resistance               to               the               blower               in               the               furnace.

The               high-end               filters,               advertised               as               filtering               more               particles               and               lasting               60               to               90               days,               are               very               dense               and               restrictive.

Your               blower               has               to               work               about               three               times               harder               to               pull               air               through               them,               and               unless               your               system               is               designed               for               these               type               filters,               which               most               are               not,               the               furnace               will               operate               less               efficiently.

Also,               (filter               manufacturers               don't               advertise               this)               using               high-end               filters               can               decrease               the               life               of               your               furnace               blower.
               Check               Your               Heating               Ducts               for               Leaks
               Everyone               knows               the               wonders               of               duct               tape,               but               what               most               people               don't               know               is               that               the               glue               binders               in               duct               tape               break               down               after               5               to               10               years               of               being               exposed               to               the               high               temperatures               of               heating               ducts               -               then               it               starts               leaking               air.

Leaking               air               is               heated               air               that               doesn't               make               it               into               your               living               area.

It's               wasted               energy.
               The               best               way               to               check               your               heating               ducts               for               leaks               is               to               remove               all               the               insulation               and               feel               around               all               the               seams               on               the               duct.

This               is               not               always               practical,               so               the               next               best               thing               to               do               is               turn               your               system               on               and               set               the               thermostat               about               10               degrees               higher               than               the               temperature               in               your               home.

Let               the               system               run               for               several               minutes               and               then               feel               for               hot               spots               along               the               outside               of               the               duct               insulation.

If               the               air               leak               is               significant               enough               it               will               warm               the               insulation               around               the               leak               to               a               higher               temperature               than               the               rest               of               the               insulation.
               Once               a               leak               is               found,               remove               the               insulation               and               re-seal               the               area               with               a               high-grade               duct               tape.

Then               patch               the               insulation.

You               won't               find               high-grade               duct               tape               at               your               local               hardware               store               or               at               larger               home               repair               chains.

Search               your               local               listings               for               HVAC               Distributors               (also               listed               as               Air               Conditioning               Equipment               Wholesalers,               or               Heating               Equipment).

Find               a               local               distributor               and               visit               the               store.

Most               won't               sell               equipment               to               you               unless               you               are               a               licensed               installer,               but               they               will               sell               you               duct               tape.

Ask               for               a               durable               duct               tape,               or               ask               for               mastic               tape               if               you               want               a               permanent               sealer               on               your               duct.
               Have               Your               Furnace               Serviced
               Call               a               reputable               heating               company               in               your               area               and               ask               them               to               service               your               unit.

It               may               sound               expensive,               but               it's               worth               it               for               several               reasons.

A               certified               heating               technician               can               check               the               burners               on               your               furnace               and               adjust               the               air               to               fuel               ration               on               the               burners,               check               and               adjust               the               gas               pressure               at               the               furnace               gas               valve,               and               verify               that               everything               is               working               efficiently               and,               more               importantly,               safely.
               This               is               not               something               the               average               do-it-yourself               homeowner               is               qualified               for,               but               it               could               save               you               hundreds               of               dollars               over               the               course               of               a               year               if               all               your               burners               are               operating               properly.

Also,               it               could               save               your               life.

A               crack               in               the               furnace               heat               exchanger               can               leak               carbon               monoxide               into               your               home.

A               service               technician               can               spot               cracks               before               they               become               hazardous.
               Set               Your               Thermostat               Lower
               It               may               sound               obvious,               but               don't               underestimate               how               much               you               could               save               just               by               lowering               your               thermostat               by               1               to               2               degrees.

Depending               on               your               area               and               utility               rates,               you               could               see               savings               of               $10               to               $30               per               month               just               from               lowering               your               thermostat               a               few               degrees.

Also,               try               lowering               it               5               to               6               degrees               at               night               and               adding               a               few               extra               blankets               to               your               bed.

There's               no               need               to               heat               the               whole               house               when               you               are               lying               motionless               in               one               spot.
               Upgrade               Your               Furnace
               This               is               another               one               of               those               ideas               that               may               sound               like               it               is               contrary               to               saving               money;               however,               you               could               be               eligible               for               a               tax               credit               if               you               upgrade               to               a               high-efficiency               furnace.

The               tax               credit               could               very               well               equal               half               the               cost               of               replacement.
               In               addition,               newer               furnaces               are               sometimes               20               to               30               percent               more               efficient               than               furnaces               made               just               10               years               ago.

The               furnace               could,               literally,               pay               for               itself               in               just               3               to               5               years.

And               if               you               financed               it,               you               could               make               the               payments               with               the               money               you               save               each               month               on               your               power               bill.

In               other               words,               it               would               be               like               getting               a               free               furnace               then               after               5               years               you               would               start               pocketing               the               money               saved.
               Call               at               least               3               local               heating               companies               and               ask               for               a               free               estimate               along               with               an               energy               cost               analysis               that               compares               the               new               system               to               your               old               system.

If               they               don't               know               how               to               do               a               cost               analysis,               then               chances               are               they               are               not               qualified.

Keep               calling               until               you               find               three               who               can.

    Many               homeowners               aren't               fully               knowledgeable               about               how               their               HVAC               system               operates               and               why               they               should               have               maintenance               service               performed               if               everything               seems               to               be               working.

    Your               home               HVAC               system               is               made               up               of               heating               and               cooling               equipment.

    Similar               to               scheduled               auto               maintenance,               the               mechanical               components               in               your               home               need               to               have               regular               preventive               service               performed               to               prolong               the               life               of               the               equipment               and               avoid               breakdowns               during               peak               usage.

    It               is               beneficial               for               homeowners               to               understand               the               cost               of               service               compared               to               the               cost               of               unexpected               replacement               of               equipment               or               emergency               service               calls               during               peak               season               use.

    Just               like               car               repairs,               it               is               less               expensive               to               have               scheduled               oil               changes               and               service               than               replacing               an               engine               or               breaking               down               while               on               a               long               trip.

    Having               your               heating               and               cooling               professionally               serviced               will               give               you               insight               into               the               total               cost               to               keep               equipment               running               during               its               life               and               at               what               point               it               is               time               to               replace               the               units.

    Pre-season               maintenance               should               be               done               in               case               replacement               parts               have               to               be               ordered               or               a               new               unit               purchased.

    This               will               give               you               more               time               to               evaluate               the               costs               to               maintain               operation               for               the               upcoming               season.
                   Normal               maintenance               of               a               HVAC               system               can               be               done               by               a               handy               person               or               do               it               yourselfer               if               they               are               familiar               with               the               equipment               and               have               knowledge               of               safety               precautions               to               take               while               performing               the               service.

    I               would               suggest               calling               a               professional               HVAC               contractor               to               inspect               all               of               the               equipment               and               give               you               a               checklist               of               items               you               may               service               yourself.

    Homeowners               can               perform               simple               tasks               like               changing               air               filters,               cleaning               of               supply               and               return               registers               or               cleaning               thermostats.
                   Here               are               some               tips               to               identify               items               to               have               serviced:
                   1.

    Familiarize               yourself               with               the               operating               components               of               your               heating               and               cooling               system.
                   2.

    Check               for               proper               operation               of               the               systems               parts               including:               the               thermostat,               blower               motor               on               forced               air               units,               filters,               humidifier,               circulating               pumps               on               hot               water               systems,               condensate               pumps,               condensing               unit               and               vent               lines.
                   3.

    Replace               air               filters               on               forced               air               systems               monthly               during               usage               months               of               heating               and               cooling               season.

    Use               high-rated               filters               to               remove               the               fine               particles               of               dust               and               microorganisms               in               the               air.

    Dirty               filters               will               advance               the               growth               of               mold               spores               and               dust               mites.
                   4.

    If               the               system               has               an               integral               humidifier,               check               the               moving               parts,               floats               and               replace               media               pads               to               avoid               algae               growth.
                   5.

    Pay               attention               to               the               water               heating               or               steam               system.

    Check               shut               off               valves               for               leaks               and               bleed               radiators               yearly.
                   6.

    Clean               the               air               supply               registers               and               return               grills               yearly.

    Remove               the               grills               and               vacuum               the               interior               of               the               box.
                   7.

    Have               a               professional               contractor               perform               a               duct               system               cleaning               to               remove               built               up               pollen,               dirt               and               dust               which               may               inhibit               respiratory               allergy               irritants.

    This               service               should               be               performed               every               other               year               after               the               first               cleaning.
                   8.

    Before               the               cooling               season,               inspect               and               clean               the               air               conditioning               pump's               collection               pan               and               hose               line.

    A               clogged               line               can               cause               water               damage               to               the               hot               air               furnace               and               other               areas               of               the               room.
                   9.

    Clean               the               evaporator               coil.

    In               forced               air               systems,               the               cooling               coil               is               in               the               furnace               plenum               and               needs               to               be               cleaned               yearly               as               it               collects               dirt               and               dust               from               within               the               system.

    Access               may               be               limited               to               the               coil.

    Consult               your               HVAC               contractor.
                   10.

    Clean               the               outdoor               air               conditioning               coil               for               efficient               operation.

    Clear               away               grass,               weeds,               foliage               and               debris.

    During               the               winter               months,               cover               the               condenser               unit.

    Never               run               unit               when               outdoor               temperature               is               below               57               degrees.
                   11.

    Have               an               HVAC               contractor               check               the               levels               of               air               conditioning               refrigerant               and               check               for               leaks               before               season               operation.
                   As               outlined               above,               a               preventive               maintenance               plan               for               residential               HVAC               systems               is               important               and               will               help               you               maintain               a               safe               and               efficient               heating               and               cooling               system               throughout               the               year.

    Make               a               schedule               for               service               and               maintenance               to               keep               your               home               environment               healthy,               safe               and               comfortable               for               you               and               your               family.

    For               the               do-it-yourself               homeowner,               refer               to               the               equipment               manufacturers               owner's               manual               before               attempting               service               and               read               all               safety               precautions               before               starting               any               task.

                   The               temperature               begins               to               climb,               and               despite               the               fact               that               you're               wearing               a               t-shirt,               a               pair               of               shorts,               and               sipping               on               an               ice               cold               drink,               you're               still               sweating.

    If               you've               ever               had               problems               with               a               stubborn               air               conditioner               unit               that               just               won't               work               right,               you               know               this               scenario               all               too               well.
                   Unless               you               happen               to               live               where               it's               cold               all               year,               you               may               be               one               of               the               many               people               who               finds               it               tough               to               cope               with               hot               summer               days               and               nights               without               a               decent               air               conditioner.

    With               record               high               temperatures               a               not               altogether               uncommon               sight               these               days,               it's               no               wonder               that,               for               many               people,               a               fan               just               won't               cut               it.

    A               high               quality,               working               air               conditioner               can               mean               the               difference               between               comfort               and               overbearingly               hot               days               and               restless               nights.
                   Residential               air               conditioners               typically               come               in               two               different               varieties,               window               AC               units               which               often               seem               ubiquitous               perched               in               the               windows               of               homes               during               hot,               summer               days,               and               larger               central               air               conditioning               or               condenser               units               (also               known               as               split               system               air               conditioners)               which               are               installed               in               backyards               or               along               driveways.

    While               window               mounted               air               conditioner               units               can               be               effective               solutions               for               most               people,               larger               condenser               type               air               conditioning               allows               for               whole               home               cooling.
                   Unfortunately,               even               the               best               air               conditioners               can               and               do               fail,               and               when               that               happens               it               can               often               result               in               time               spent               waiting               for               repair               specialists               and               a               costly               bill               when               the               work               is               done.

    By               taking               the               time               to               give               your               air               conditioner               proper               maintenance               and               knowing               a               few               simple               ways               to               troubleshoot               common               problems,               you               can               potentially               save               yourself               a               considerable               amount               of               hassle               and               money.
                   The               Basics:               It's               important               to               keep               air               conditioner               in               proper               working               order               
                   You               may               not               realize               it,               but               cooling               and               heating               can               be               among               the               costly               energy               costs               in               your               home.

    It's               important               not               to               forget               basic               maintenance               when               using               your               air               conditioner               so               that               it               as               efficient               as               possible               and               not               simply               wasting               your               hard-earned               money.
                   Central               Air               Conditioners               
                   If               you               rely               on               a               central               air               conditioner               which               has               been               installed               outside               of               your               home,               typically               in               the               yard               just               beside               the               house,               you               should               know               that               it               utilizes               the               same               centralized               network               of               ducts               which               provide               heat               to               different               areas               within               your               home               during               winter.

    While               the               unit               itself               should               be               kept               as               clean               as               possible               and               clear               of               any               overgrown               grass               or               plants,               any               problems               keeping               your               home               cooled               efficiently               can               often               to               be               traced               to               issues               with               the               ducts               themselves.
                   Central               Air               Conditioners:               The               Ducts               
                   You               may               want               to               make               a               thorough               check               of               all               ducts               throughout               the               home,               searching               for               any               signs               of               obvious               cracks,               holes,               tears,               or               defects.

    Air               may               leak               at               the               point               where               two               sections               of               ducting               are               joined               as               well.

    Use               duct               tape               to               seal               any               obvious               areas               where               leaks               are               occurring,               but               be               aware               that               this               may               only               be               sufficient               as               a               temporary               solution.

    Eventually,               you               may               need               to               replace               defective               sections               of               the               ducts               entirely.
                   Central               Air               Conditioners:               Checking               the               Unit               Itself               
                   Any               time               you               inspect               the               unit               itself,               you               want               to               make               sure               all               power               to               the               air               conditioner               is               off.

    The               air               conditioner's               evaporator,               which               is               essentially               the               gateway               between               the               ducting               in               your               home               and               the               unit               outsides,               is               usually               located               right               above               your               furnace.

    If               it               is               accessible,               ensure               that               it               is               clean               by               using               a               brush               or               rag               to               remove               any               dirt,               buildup,               or               signs               of               blockage.

    Just               below               the               evaporator               is               the               condensation               tray               which               may               have               accumulated               mold               or               fungus               if               it               has               not               been               cleaned               properly.

    Apply               a               bleach               solution               to               the               evaporator               so               that               your               home               is               not               subject               to               potentially               harmful               mold               spores.
                   Window               Air               Conditioners               
                   While               these               units               are               typically               only               able               to               cool               a               single               room               depending               on               their               size,               it               can               be               a               headache               when               one               fails               to               work               properly               or               stops               working               altogether.

    Sometimes,               the               problem               can               be               a               simple               as               a               fan               needing               to               be               properly               oiled               which               you               can               do               by               adding               small               amounts               of               motor               oil               to               any               visible               oil               intakes.

    However,               problems               with               window               air               conditioners               are               often               the               result               of               an               accumulation               of               dirt               and               grime               in               the               unit               itself.
                   Window               Air               Conditioners:               Dirt               and               Blockage               
                   Window               units               can               be               highly               sensitive               to               blockage               and               dirt,               and               lack               of               routine               maintenance               and               cleaning               is               a               typical               cause               of               many               problems               people               sometimes               experience               with               these               air               conditioners.

    Make               sure               the               unit               is               turned               off               and               unplugged,               and               check               for               any               obvious               signs               of               blockage.
                   Window               Air               Conditioners:               The               Filter               
                   The               filter               is               located               directly               behind               the               unit's               front               grille,               and               while               some               units               have               an               easily               detachable               front               grille               or               accessible               filter,               other               units               will               require               a               few               screws               to               be               removed               before               the               filter               itself               can               be               accessed.

    Even               if               you               don't               see               any               major               blockage,               it's               a               good               idea               to               keep               the               filter               as               clean               as               possible               with               a               cleaning               solution               and               a               wet               rag.

    Just               make               sure               the               filter               has               been               thoroughly               dried               before               you               reinstall               it.
                   Time               to               call               an               expert?


                   Window               air               conditioners               can               suffer               from               other               problems               related               to               a               defective               fan               motor               or               a               faulty               thermostat.

    Central               air               conditioners               have               a               range               of               parts               that               can               simply               go               bad               or               fail               altogether               as               well.

    When               this               happens,               it's               wise               to               contact               a               professional               and               begin               the               process               of               ordering               a               replacement               part               and               scheduling               installation.

    While               some               handy               individuals               may               feel               they               can               tackle               these               part               replacements               themselves,               air               conditioners               often               rely               on               very               specific               components               which               must               be               special               ordered               and               installed               by               professionals.
