Santa is a reliable and trusted energy services provider and offers these tips to help maximize energy efficiency:

Determine the areas your home is losing energy and have them fixed: Connecticut homeowners can reduce their energy consumption by understanding where inefficiencies are. Santa Fuel’s Energy Assessment Team pinpoints where your home is losing energy and can help reduce your energy costs by making repairs and updates to areas identified during the evaluation.

Tune-up your heating and air conditioning equipment yearly: A tune-up of your system can improve efficiency and increase comfort. Much like an automobile, yearly inspections and tune-ups can save money and reduce the potential for more significant, and costly, issues in the days ahead.

Install a programmable thermostat: This is ideal for people who are away during the day because it enables homeowners to set the temperature in their home for every hour of every day. You can optimize your home comfort while significantly lowering your energy bills.

Change your air filter regularly: Check your filter every month, especially during winter and summer when equipment is used heavily. Change the filter a minimum of every three months. A dirty filter will slow down air flow -- and make your heating and cooling system work far less efficiently.

Consider ENERGY STAR equipment: If your HVAC equipment is more than 10 years old or not keeping your house comfortable, have it evaluated by a Santa energy efficiency expert. But before you invest in a new HVAC system, make sure that you have addressed air leaks in your house and the duct system. Sometimes, these are the real sources of problems rather than your HVAC equipment.

And if you do need more energy efficient equipment, make certain that it is properly installed. Improper installation can reduce efficiency by 30 percent. For more information, visit the Santa website or contact them at 1-800-937-2682.
