Following these HVAC hacks can reduce <a href=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/understanding-hvac-costs\/\">HVAC costs<\/a> and help you improve comfort throughout the year.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Set your thermostat a few degrees higher<\/strong>: Setting your thermostat a few degrees higher means your AC doesn&#8217;t have to work so hard to maintain your desired temperature. Experiment with your thermostat to identify the highest possible temperature that allows you to remain comfortable. According to Energy.gov, turning your thermostat back 7-10\u00b0F from its typical setting for 8 hours a day can reduce energy costs by 10% annually.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Invest in regular HVAC maintenance<\/strong>: Annual HVAC maintenance is among the essential HVAC hacks we recommend to St. Louis home and business owners asking <a href=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/how-to-reduce-ac-bills\/\">how to reduce AC bills<\/a>. Routine maintenance is necessary for efficient and effective heating and cooling. Some maintenance tasks, like changing AC filters, should happen more regularly &#8211; at least every 1 &#8211; 3 months &#8211; to keep indoor air clean and maintain a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/hvac-system-helps-in-creating-a-healthy-home-environment\/\">healthy home environment<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Upgrade to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/energy-efficient-heating-solutions\/\">energy-efficient heating<\/a> and cooling systems:<\/strong>ACs and furnaces are designed to last decades, and with regular maintenance, they can serve you well till the end of their useful lives. But, with age, your HVAC units may more require frequent repair. Replacing your HVAC with new, more energy-efficient units is the better option, certainly one that will save you money in the long run.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Install a ceiling fan<\/strong>: A ceiling fan costs a lot less than an AC. It distributes cool air throughout your home and ensures a steady breeze. If you have a multi-storied home, think about installing ceiling fans on the upper levels to keep the air moving, facilitating ventilation and evaporating sweat.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Seal drafts and insulation<\/strong>: One of the easiest HVAC hacks to lower your winter heating bill is to insulate your home effectively. Inspect all areas of heat loss in your home, such as doors, windows, and attics. Seal any gaps or cracks using window insulation kits, weatherstripping, and caulking. Keep your attic well-insulated to make your home warmer and reduce strain on your heating system. Also inspect your ductwork for leaks and seal any gaps.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Limit the use of heat-producing appliances during the day<\/strong>: The kitchen and laundry appliances you use during the day can make your air conditioner work harder to keep your home cool. Among the HVAC hacks you can try is to run the dishwasher, dryer, and oven in the early morning or evening rather than during the warmer hours of the day.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Become_%E2%80%98HVAC-Smarter_with_Galmiche_Sons\"><\/span>Become &#8216;HVAC-Smarter&#8217; with Galmiche &amp; Sons!<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/hvac-hacks-for-reducing-your-energy-bill-3-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"Become 'HVAC-Smarter' with Galmiche &amp; Sons\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-13846\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/hvac-hacks-for-reducing-your-energy-bill-3-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/hvac-hacks-for-reducing-your-energy-bill-3.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>With over 70 years of experience providing HVAC services in St. Louis, Missouri, we can help you reduce your HVAC costs.
