Energy Saving Tips to Prep your Home for Summer
Posted by Susan Lesczynski on 12:28 PM
May is in full swing and the weather is getting warmer. Air conditioning can cause energy costs to go up, so here are some tips I found from FrugalDad.com to save money and keep cool in the summer.
Plant a tree next to your AC unit: Putting some shade over your outdoor AC unit can make it run more efficiently.
Inspect your dryer vents: Clogged dryer vents cause warm air to come back in the house.
Run your bathroom vent fan during showers: This removes warm, muggy air from steamy showers, making the AC unit's job easier.
Consider a drying rack for heavy garments like jeans or towels: Air drying heavy garments makes a big difference.
