Bright living roomKeeping your home temperature comfortable can be tough on hot and humid summer days.  Here are a few tips to help you cool your home more efficiently and help you save on your utility costs.

Home Cooling Tips:

  •  Check Your Home Insulation – Surprisingly, many homes don’t have sufficient home insulation.  By adding insulation to walls and attic of your home, you can help make your home more energy efficient.  This means that the cool, conditioned air that your air conditioning system works hard to cool down won’t escape through the cracks and gaps in your walls.
  • Avoid Cooking Indoors – Your oven can heat up your kitchen.  Instead, use the outdoor bbq or opt for cool, summer salads instead.
  • Add Window Coverings – If you’re not home during the day, close your windows and window coverings.  This will help keep your home cool for as long as possible throughout the day.

So Much Warmer
"House is so much warmer now. The tech built a 100 sq ft storage area in my attic which I think is working great."

Good Experience
