New HVAC helps you and Mother Earth

Here’s an example of technology that is helping the world: Today’s best air conditioners use 30 percent to 50 percent less energy to produce the same cooling as ACs made in the mid-1970s.

“Even if your air conditioner is only 10 years old, you may save 20 percent to 40 percent of your cooling energy costs by replacing it with a newer, more efficient model,” says the U.S. Department of Energy.

That means savings for you on your energy bill and a break for the environment because less power must be generated for the system.

Well-maintained heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems can last 15 to 25 years, but if you are in the market for a new HVAC system check out this link for helpful suggestions:
