What is one of the cheapest ways to go green in Tyler Texas?

August 2nd, 2011

Aire Serv of Smith County
As in most of the country we are in what the weather men are calling the heat dome. This dome of heat has kept temperatures above 100 degrees going on over 30 days now. At this time many peoples air conditioning bills are doubling in price.

The Texas ERCOT electric grid is experiencing record breaking demand which means if you are not locked into a fixed electric rate you will likely get a pretty nasty looking bill.

When it comes down to it it doesn’t matter a whole lot what your electric rate is if your home is not energy efficient. Regardless of your electric rate you will likely see your bill double in price as you use twice as much electricity usage.

The main way your home uses this additional energy is by the energy your air conditioning system uses. In East Texas we spend most of our money on the electricity bill on air conditioning charges.

In places like Seattle Washington they go year round without ever turning on an AC unit. Since we do not have the luxury of that it is important that you insulate your attic and look into upgrading to a high efficiency air conditioner.

A high efficiency unit can reduce our electricity bill by about 1/3rd. You may spend a couple thousand more on a high efficiency unit but the money comes back to you right away which makes it a very smart low cost money saving option.

Of course insulating your attic is one of the cheapest ways but upgrading your AC unit is right behind that. Aire Serv of Smith County can help you with looking at high efficiency air conditioner options. They offer financing as well so you don’t have to pay for all of the cost right away.

Now is a good time to look into the small cost involved in significantly reducing your electric bill in Tyler Texas.

Low cost way to lower your electric bill in the summer

July 25th, 2011

Tyler Texas AC RepairIn older houses your attic and doorways are the first place to start to help in lowering your electric bill in the summer.

It really does not cost much to make a significant impact on your electric bill by insulating the attic, duct work, and putting seals on doorways and windows.

In older houses you usually have lower ceilings in the house which ads to the effect when you insulate your attic. It does not take as much air conditioning to cool your house when your ceilings are only 8 feet high.

To begin your cost reduction task go to Home Depot, Lowe’s or any local hardware store and get some weather stripping for doors and windows.

There are also strips that can be attached at the bottom of a doorway that stick on and drag the ground. Ask for the lower strips as well, they take about 30 seconds to put on.

For most people you will be able to glue and or nail the weather stripping on yourself. I personally did a combination of nailing and gluing. Be sure to use the very small tack nails so you don’t effect the structural components of your windows and doors.

Now for the attic you can get blow in insulation from most hardware stores and it comes with a blow in machine. The problem is that if you call the top 3 insulation companies in Tyler TX you will be able to get a cheaper price for insulation and installation than the cost of purchasing the materials at either large hardware store.

It simply makes no sense to insulate your attic yourself when the professionals can do it cheaper than it will cost you to buy the materials.

In older houses sometimes the duct work has not been wrapped in insulation. Also the duct work very well may have no mastic paint sealing the cracks at each connection of duct work.

When it comes to mastic seals and insulating the duct work you are talking about a lot of time up in the attic to do this. This is one of the more costly aspects to attic and ac conditioning insulation.

For those who want to do this yourself it is as simple as getting a paint brush, mastic, and duct insulation. You will also need a cutting blade to cut the insulation.

I recommend getting a licensed ac repair company in Tyler Texas to do the duct work insulating as they can knock it out quick and you don’t have to deal with being in your attic for extended periods of time.

We recommend calling Aire Serv of Tyler Texas for any duct work insulation work you need done. When contacting a Tyler TX ac repair company be sure to get a few quotes and go with the company willing to give you referrals and examples of the work they have done.

If you perform all of these low cost energy efficiency steps in your house you could lower your summer electric bill by $100 a month depending on how bad your ac cooling is leaking in your house.
