4 Ways to Save Money by Fixing Temperature Variations

Have you noticed that some rooms are colder than others in your Tucson, AZ, home? Read on to learn more about why temperature variations occur and how you can resolve them.

Fix Poor Insulation

Poor insulation causes temperature variation because your home doesn’t retain cool air consistently. Your air conditioner needs to work harder to cool rooms where air escapes quickly through the walls.

Fix any insulation issues so that your HVAC system can work properly. You should notice a reduction in your power bill.

Fix Ductwork Leaks

Your HVAC system loses efficiency when leaks exist in the ductwork. Loose joints will cut off airflow to some rooms completely. Fix these issues that cause temperature variation by getting your ducts inspected and cleaned by a professional technician.

Manage Temperatures with a Programmable Thermostat

Use a programmable thermostat to strategically manage your home’s temperature after fixing ductwork and insulation issues. A programmable thermostat saves money on your electric bill because you can make sure your home’s temperature adjusts according to your lifestyle. For example, it will automatically raise temperatures when you’re away from home and bring them back down when you return. Make sure your new thermostat is compatible with your HVAC system.

Fix Improperly Sized HVAC System Issues

Your AC unit will shut off too soon if it’s too large for your home. If it’s too small for your home, then your air conditioner will continuously run as it tries to cool the house.

If the HVAC system is too small or large, then consider installing a new system that is the perfect size for your house.

The first step to identifying why your home is suffering from temperature variations is having a professional technician inspect it. Call MVP Heating & Air Conditioning today.
