Is Your Home or Office Ready for Spring? | Teems Electric

March 20 marks the first day of spring. While you might be ready for the warmer temperatures, it is important to make sure your home or office is ready, too!

Read on as our Teems team takes a look at some ways you can improve the energy efficiency inside your home or office.

Schedule an HVAC Maintenance Check

When was the last time you had your home or office’s air conditioner serviced? If it has been since 2018 or longer, it’s time to give our team a call to ensure your HVAC system is ready to handle the warmer temperatures.

Open the Windows

If possible, open the windows of your home or office when you can. Not only will the fresh breeze allow you to cool your home or office without the need to turn on the air conditioner, the fresh air can also give you a boost in motivation and productivity.

Turn on the Ceiling Fans

In addition to opening the windows, turning on the ceiling fans is another great idea that can help with cooling your home or office without the need of an air conditioner.

If you turned your fans clockwise for the winter, now’s the time to change them back to counter clockwise. This will blow air straight down, helping to cool your home.

Move the Cooking Outside

When the days are warmer and the sun is shining, take advantage by turning up the grill and cooking outside. Not only will you enjoy a change in meals, but you’ll escape from some heat—cooking inside on a hot day can raise the heat within your home, making your air conditioner work harder.

Remember, our team at Teems Electric is here to help you when it comes to saving energy every month on your home or office’s energy bill. Give our team a call today to set up a maintenance check sooner rather than later!
