Say Bye-Bye to Extra Heat!
July 27, 2018
Cutting down on using large appliances during the summer will help to cut down your AC's cooling load and may result in cutting down on your electricity bill. A high electricity bill is never a good sign!
How to Stop Extra Heat From Heating your Home:
- Don't cook or take advantage of cooking outside. Try to pre-plan meals so that you don't use the oven during the day. Think about cooking on the grill, in a microwave, or a crockpot. In the afternoon and evening is when the heat is the worst so consider using alternative cooking options to the oven.
- Wait to wash the dishes. Postpone running the dishwasher until it is late at night or early in the morning. Also, make sure that when you are running the dishwasher make sure it is full so that you aren't wasting time adding some more heat to your home.
- Wait to do your laundry. Again, wait till it is late at night or earlier in the morning to run a load of laundry. And if you have an outdoor space consider hanging your clothes on a line to dry to cut back on using the dryer.
- Properly insulate your home to stop heat from coming in. At Complete Home Solutions, we offer a FREE Energy Audit, where a Home Comfort Specialist comes into your home to see where your valuable cool air is going and how to fix it. This will help to determine where there is an air leakage which is causing your cool, expansive air to escape from the home.
