How To Beat The Heat & Humidity Without Blowing Up The Electric Bill
Let’s face it, it’s hot and humid in Georgia and we need our air conditioners to work well but the cost of energy can be way too high to keep us comfortable. The problem comes around the end of the month when we see how much it cost for that old equipment to run enough to keep us cool.
If you are looking for ways to beat the heat and humidity in your Georgia home without blowing up the electric bill, take a look at these replacement systems that will offer you a lot of comfort and energy-savings.
Replace Old Heat Pumps
Your old heat pump could be costing you a lot to run. As the system ages, it will use more electricity to keep your home at the same temperature you’ve always enjoyed. If your electric bill has been inching up over the years, this could be the problem.
Replace Old Baseboard Heaters & Furnaces With A Heat Pump
Today’s advanced heat pumps can save about 50% of the energy that a new baseboard heater or furnace uses. If your furnace or radiant heater is older, you’ll save even more by converting to a heat pump.
The high-efficiency heat pumps also help to remove humidity in the air, unlike most central air conditioning systems that don’t do anything to reduce humidity. Your home will feel much hotter if the air inside is humid.
Ductless Air Conditioning Heat Pumps
Mini-split air conditioning systems are available in the air source heat pump models. They are the perfect choice for homes with no ductwork. Today’s ductless air conditioning and heating systems work extremely well and are very quiet.
High-Efficiency Air Conditioners
As far as a central air conditioning system goes, you want to look for a high-efficiency model. The Energy Star certified air conditioners offer you the most efficiency. Look for a high SEER rating.
The AirEase – Pro Series 20LX and SHP/BCE Series are the two high-efficiency models listed on the Energy Star website.* the Amana AVXC20 and the Armstrong SCU/BCE and SHP/BCE series rank next.
