With 2016 finally here, homeowners throughout the West Hartford area are looking for ways to improve their households. There is certainly no shortage of ways to do so. But whether you're interesting in light maintenance or major overhauls, energy efficiency should also be at the top of your list. Taking the time to tighten up the home's plumbing system, invest in new HVAC equipment, or have your existing heating and cooling system maintained may actually save you serious energy, money and hassle this year. Here are some ways you can get started.
- Choose a high-efficiency HVAC system. Whether you're considering a heater/AC unit for a home that you've just moved into, or you're replacing an old boiler or central air unit that has finally called it quits, know your options. Before you opt or the same type or brand of system, you may stand to save serious money in the long-run by choosing a high-efficiency HVAC system. Many of today's models have exceptional efficiency ratings that stand in stark contrast with anything that was made 15 years ago.
- Take care of any lingering leaks. If you pay for water as so many of us do, then make sure your plumbing system is in great working order. That means first of all repairing any leaks. Whether they're behind walls, at your water heater, underground or within the toilet, they are costing you money. What's more is that they will not fix themselves, but will tend to worsen over time.
- Invest in a tankless water heater. Tank water heaters are the norm, and you probably have one installed in your home. But it's not the only option: tankless hot water systems offer unparalleled efficiency and a near-endless supply of hot water to every fixture in your home. They only heat the water that you call for so you can cut down on standby energy loss.
