Save Money With Arco Temp Air Go Green With Arco temp Air

Homeowners, condo owners, apartment dwellers, renters, you name it. We’re all looking for ways to save money around the house. Fortunately, there are simple ways that you can save money while at the same time reducing your impact on the environment. Now who can’t get on board with that? First and foremost, consider your home’s biggest energy consumer. No, not your teenager…your air conditioner! Cooling costs often account for around 40% of the total energy consumption of the household and sometimes more in the summer months.

Energy Savings (continued)

Energy Star products are available that may reduce energy costs significantly. An air conditioner that is 10 years old or older may be costing you hundreds of dollars more each year than new energy efficient models. Better yet, energy efficient products may qualify for FPL rebates, as well as the federal government’s tax credit of up to $1,500 good until December 31, 2010.

Government standards for energy efficiency now require air conditioners to have a minimum seasonal energy efficiency ratio (SEER) of 13.00. To qualify as Energy Star, an air conditioner must have a SEER of 14.00 or higher. Air conditioners qualifying for the tax credit must have a SEER of 16.00 or higher (14.00 if a packaged unit). To put it simply, the higher the SEER, the greater the energy savings and the lower your energy bills will be.

There are other ways to go green to save green beyond upgrading your air conditioner. For instance, run appliances like washers, dryers and dishwashers in the evening or morning hours when outdoor temperatures are not as high. The outdoor heat combined with the heat produced by these appliances will force your air conditioner to work harder to cool your home.

You may also consider switching to compact fluorescent (CFL) light bulbs. These use less energy, but produce equivalent lighting of traditionally used incandescent light bulbs. Be careful, though, because CFLs contain mercury. Dispose of them properly and if one breaks, follow these instructions from the EPA. Other simple measures you can take include shortening your showers, setting your thermostat to 78 degrees (FPL recommendation) while you’re at home and even higher when you’re out of the house, and unplugging chargers and other devices when not in use.
