Stay Cool This Memorial Day: Energy-Saving HVAC Tips from Trahan's

As Memorial Day heralds the beginning of the summer in Houma, Larose, Berwick, and the surrounding areas, Trahan’s Cooling, Heating & Plumbing is on hand to ensure your air conditioning system is optimally tuned for maximum comfort and efficiency. Here are some expert tips to help you enjoy your holiday gatherings comfortably while keeping your energy bills low.

Optimize Your Thermostat

Properly setting your thermostat can significantly reduce your energy usage without sacrificing comfort. During your Memorial Day celebrations, set your thermostat at a comfortable 78 degrees when your home is occupied and consider increasing it slightly when the house is empty or during the cooler parts of the evening. A programmable thermostat can automate these adjustments, optimizing your home’s climate control while conserving energy.

Ensure Regular HVAC Maintenance

Schedule a pre-holiday maintenance check with Trahan’s Cooling, Heating & Plumbing to ensure your system is running efficiently. Regular maintenance can prevent unexpected failures and help your system perform at its best, minimizing the risk of inconvenient breakdowns and costly emergency repairs during your celebrations.

Upgrade Your Air Filters

Regularly changing your HVAC air filters is a simple yet effective method to improve your system’s efficiency and maintain excellent indoor air quality. This is particularly crucial during allergy season in Louisiana, helping to keep indoor air clean and free from allergens.

Utilize Ceiling Fans

Using ceiling fans in conjunction with your HVAC system can significantly enhance indoor comfort by better circulating cool air throughout your home. This strategy allows you to set the thermostat slightly higher, reducing the strain on your AC and saving energy.

By implementing these tips from Trahan’s Cooling, Heating & Plumbing, you can ensure your home remains comfortable, energy-efficient, and ready to host your Memorial Day festivities.
