Want to Save Energy At Home? A New HVAC System Might Be the Solution
Is your current home HVAC system more than 10 years old? If so, it might need upgrading. Old systems waste energy. In fact, it is costing you more money too. According to data reported by ENERGY STAR, the installation of new ENERGY STAR-rated and energy-efficient HVAC equipment can cut your yearly energy bill by over $115. Here’s how replacing your old HVAC system can save you money and more.
Energy And Cost Savings
Contents
The average American household spends over $2,200 annually on energy-related bills. Additionally, nearly half of this average goes to cooling and heating alone. When you chose to update your outdated and inefficient HVAC system, you are not only saving money but saving energy. Updating your old HVAC system also helps the environment at the same time. These are some of the most energy-efficient systems available today.
Energy-Efficient Furnaces
These heating systems are the most commonly used throughout residential properties in the U.S. Furnaces are powered by heating oil, gas, propane, and electricity. They deliver heat through a duct system that runs throughout your home. Some experts claim that condensing furnaces are the best when it comes to energy-efficiency. These furnaces can have up to 98 percent fuel efficiency. An additional part that makes for efficient furnaces includes the blower motor, which is usually an Electronically Commutated Motor (ECM) or an advanced circulating fan.
Boilers That Promote Energy-Efficiency
Boilers heat the home by burning heating oil , gas, or environmentally-friendly propane to heat steam or water. This circulates through a home’s baseboards, radiators or radiant floor systems. One of the biggest energy-efficient features that boilers offer are an electric ignition. This ignition eliminates the need for a boiler’s pilot light to be on all of the time.
Energy Efficient Heat Pumps
Heat pumps can provide both cooling and heating to your home. Geothermal heat pumps (GHPs) are near the top when it comes to energy efficiency. GHPs use the Earth’s natural heat to provide cooling, heating, and water heating. Although these efficient systems are expensive at first, they do allow for significant savings on energy bills down the line.
