Fall and Winter Energy-Saving Tips
People spend most of their time indoors, especially during the fall and winter months. That means protecting your indoor air quality is important, especially now. Cleaning regularly, using a humidifier and properly maintaining your HVAC system are three easy ways to improve your indoor air quality and ensure your home has clean air for the chilly season.
No one wants the surprise of no heat on the first day of cold season. Fall is the best time to schedule a heating system inspection or maintenance to improve performance and efficiency of your heating system, safeguard against breakdowns over the coming season and help extend your system’s life.
Life is constantly changing. A smart thermostat adapts to your life and the changing environment, delivering even more comfort, energy savings and peace of mind.
Keep your heating system in good shape and working at maximum efficiency. A maintenance check will help to detect any small problems before they turn into big ones, ensuring you remain comfortable and trouble-free throughout the fall and winter months.

It’s no secret that sleep is essential for health and well-being. Don’t let a good night’s rest get interrupted by uncomfortable temperatures. The National Sleep Foundation recommends keeping your temperature between 65 and 68 degrees for ideal sleep.
We love our furry friends, but they can add extra dust and dander to our indoor air. Cleaning and vacuuming regularly is a great way to reduce the effects, but the best way to ensure fresh and clean air is with a whole-home purification system. Contact us to learn more!
What’s the difference between a programmable thermostat and a smart thermostat? Programmable thermostats allow you to pre-set temperatures for a number of times of the day during the week.
Smart thermostats learn from your behavior and adjust on their own. They can learn what times you’re usually home and when you’re away to adjust its settings to maximize comfort, energy efficiency and savings. #SmartHome #LennoxAir
Everyone looks for ways to save when HVAC usage starts to go up during colder months. And as the days get shorter and there are fewer hours of natural light, electricity usage goes up as well. Consider replacing lights with more energy-efficient bulbs. These can save you in the long run, as they can last up to 25x longer than traditional bulbs.
How is indoor air quality affected in the fall? Your home’s air is a composite of many sources—dander from your pets, chemicals from cleaning products, mold spores that may exist in the crawl space under your house, and more. In the warmer months, open windows allow fresh air in on a regular basis. But for the colder season, your air simply circulates, and all those composite particles stay in your home, which can be a recipe for health issues.
Consider a whole-home purification system to ensure your indoor air can stay clean and healthy, even through the cold season.
While we fully support scary costumes, we don’t want to see a scary HVAC unit. Make sure to schedule regular maintenance checkups to ensure your system is always in tip-top shape. Happy Halloween!
Home winter tip: Keep a generator on hand. This can come in handy during a power outage, especially during the cold winter months.
As our homes and how we use them change, it’s time to rethink our air. Expanding your existing HVAC system isn’t always the answer. Consider a ductless mini-split solution, as they provide an efficient and flexible solution for heating and cooling specific areas in your home.
