Inconsistent Thermostat Settings
Are you constantly adjusting your thermostat? Inconsistent thermostat settings can cause your HVAC system to go into overdrive. By choosing a more consistent temperature, you can reduce the amount of energy used. A smart thermostat will help you maximize your energy usage and offers advanced features like timers and remote control via mobile app.
Phantom Energy Use
Devices that remain plugged into the outlet when not in use can draw phantom energy from your system. Desktop computers, video game consoles, televisions, cable boxes, DVR devices and similar electronics are common culprits. Unplug these devices when they are not being used or consider installing a smart outlet or power strip. They will help you monitor your energy usage and allow you to turn off individual outlets as needed even when you are away from home.
