It’s now time to give the HVAC professionals a call. We are fully into Spring now and it’s time to have the HVAC technician come out. I start every Spring off with an air conditioning tune up. This ensures that our heat pump is ready for the big load of cooling that we’ll ask of it soon. Additionally, getting the HVAC maintenance also keeps the heat pump working at its most efficient. And that helps save money when it comes to those cooling costs. But this Spring, I think I’m taking a different and more logical route to saving on air conditioning. We are just into the middle of March and already I’m hearing heat pumps start up. The temperature has gotten into the 80’s a few times and folks around here are reaching for the air conditioning. This is pretty normal I guess and what I’ve done in the past as well. But this year, I decided to check up a bit before reaching for the thermostat. Instead of going to the air conditioning right away, I’m leaving the windows and doors open for another month or two. It’s time for me to really get acclimated to the higher temperatures around here. For sure, that will help lessen the demand for air conditioning in our home. And I love saving money anyway I can. But I’m also really glad to get more acclimated to the heat and humidity so I’m not just staying inside the central air conditioning of my home all Summer. I feel like I’ve been doing that the last few years and that seems like such a waste of time. So this year, I’m resisting the urge to pour on the air conditioning this early in the Spring.
