Cut Back on Cooling Costs


In the spring and summer heat of Chicago, air conditioning is a welcome and necessary home accessory. Of course, however, constantly running your air conditioning is an easy way to have your electric bills go through the roof. The good news, though, is that there are things you can do to reduce cooling costs without having to give up your precious air conditioning. It might sound crazy, but one thing you can do is to make the switch to energy efficient light bulbs. Because these bulbs produce a lot less heat than a standard light bulb, your home won’t be as hot and you won’t have to run the air conditioner as much.

Having regular maintenance performed on your Chicago air conditioning unit is also a smart idea. Common maintenance tasks can enable your air conditioner to perform better and can get rid of costly problems, like leaks before they have a chance to cost you the big bucks.
