Leaving home for a few hours or a few days? Here’s a smart tip: set your thermostat to a modest "away" temperature instead of shutting your HVAC system off completely. Turning your system off might seem like it saves energy, but when you return, your system will have to work harder (and use more energy) to get your home comfortable again. Plus, sudden temperature swings can stress your HVAC and even lead to wear and tear over time.
Keep things efficient, comfortable, and wallet-friendly by choosing an away setting: usually a few degrees higher in summer, and lower in winter. Not sure what’s best for your home? Accu-Temp can recommend the perfect settings for comfort and savings. Give us a call before your next trip!
