With modern advancements in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/furnace-technology\/\">furnace technology<\/a>, your options for a new furnace are more energy efficient than ever before. New high-efficiency furnaces now have the ability to convert as much as 98.7% of energy used in to heat. These new models will heat your home with ease, costing you less on each energy bill and giving you peace of mind.<\/li>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/make-home-energy-efficient-2.jpg\" alt=\"Energy Efficient HVAC Tips\" width=\"300\" height=\"233\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-4198\" \/><\/p>\n<li><strong>Ensure Proper Insulation<\/strong>&#8211; A well insulated home can make all the difference in energy efficiency. Even if you have recently purchased a new furnace, it will work much harder than it has to in a home with poor insulation. If you experience drafty rooms or cold spots throughout your home, this is usually a sign of insufficient insulation. Proper insulation keeps the warm air inside and the cold air out during the winter months, helping to make your home a more energy efficient environment.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Upgrade to a Tankless Water Heater<\/strong>&#8211; Traditional water heaters are huge energy wasters. They are constantly heating and reheating a large water reserve whether you use it or not. Tankless water heaters are far more energy efficient because they heat water only when you need it. Additionally, if your tankless water heater breaks, repair costs are typically much more affordable. This small change is energy efficient and lowers your monthly costs.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Supplement with Solar<\/strong>&#8211; Solar energy is a renewable resource, collecting energy from the sun to power your home. If your home qualifies for solar panels, you could see a drop of as much as 50% in your annual power bill. Solar panels are a surefire way to make your home more energy efficient all year long. Initial costs for solar panels can be intimidating, but there are rebate programs for those who qualify, and the overall savings will offset in the long term.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Contact Your Local Experts<\/strong>&#8211; Galmiche &amp; Sons have been serving the St. Louis area since 1950.
