The average homeowner is spending over two hundred and fifty dollars per month on energy bills. This kind of expense can be difficult for most homeowners to justify, but there is only so much a person can do to save on energy costs. Efficient appliances, thermostat adjustments, and making sure to turn off lights only goes so far. It’s even possible to call a local energy provider for an energy audit to see just where all the power is going. In almost every case, the biggest culprit is the heating or cooling appliance being used that season. Calling a local HVAC service provider to have the unit serviced, but if there’s nothing wrong with the unit it won’t make a difference. If the unit is still working harder than it should be the windows of the home could be the cause.
Drafts in a home could be causing cold or hot spots that make the thermostat think the temperature needs to be adjusted. In the winter the thermostat could be detecting a cold draft rather than correctly reading the overall temperature of the home. This will cause the furnace to start up when there’s no need, wasting energy and raising the monthly bill beyond a reasonable amount.

Over the course of a year, homeowners could save hundreds or even thousands of dollars.
