As temperatures drop, heating costs tend to rise—but if your bill is unexpectedly high, it could indicate inefficiencies in your system.
At Action Air, we want to help you stay warm without breaking the bank. For almost all US energy bill-payers, home heating costs involve significant expenditure because they remain at what the National Energy Assistance Directors’ Association (NEADA) identifies as near-record levels.
Here are some common reasons for higher-than-expected heating bills and how our expert services can help you save:
Dirty or Clogged Air Filters
A clogged air filter forces your heating system to work harder, using more energy to push warm air through your home. Replacing your filter every 1-3 months can improve efficiency and reduce costs. Our team can provide routine maintenance to ensure your system is running at peak performance.
Poor Insulation of Air Leaks
Drafty windows, and doors, poor attic insulation, air leaks, and poor insulation on your ductwork allow heat to escape, making your system work overtime. Action Air offers assessments to identify and fix air leaks in your ductwork, helping you retain heat and lower your bill.
Aging or Inefficient Heating System
Older heating systems lose efficiency over time, requiring more energy to heat your home. If your unit is over 10-15 years old, it might be time for an upgrade. Action Air specializes in energy-efficient heating installations that can lower your monthly costs and improve comfort.
Lack of Regular Maintenance
Skipping annual maintenance can lead to reduced efficiency, higher bills, and unexpected breakdowns. Our professional heating tune-ups include thorough inspections, cleaning, and adjustments to keep your system running smoothly all winter long.
