Why Is Your Air Conditioner Costing So Much to Run?

If your electricity bills have been steadily climbing, your air conditioner could be the culprit. Here are the common reasons and what you can do about it.

Common Causes of High Running Costs

• Outdated system:: Older units are significantly less energy efficient
• Poor maintenance:: Dirty filters and coils force the system to work harder
• Incorrect sizing:: An undersized unit runs constantly trying to maintain temperature
• No zoning:: Cooling the entire house when you only use certain rooms wastes energy
• Poor insulation:: Heat enters the home faster than the AC can cool it

• Schedule regular maintenance
• Install a smart zoning system like MyPlaceIQ
