Preparing Your Florida Home For Fall Drafts
We know it’s difficult to think of autumn when we are so enmeshed in our beautiful Florida summer. Autumn and its cooler temperatures will be here before we know it though. Now is the time to begin preparing your Florida home for fall drafts.
The geothermal experts and installers at Symbiont Service Corp work with Englewood, Florida and surrounding area homeowners and business owners to keep heating and cooling costs affordable.
Preparing Your Florida Home For Fall Drafts
You may not want to think of cooler weather, but if you begin preparing now you will be ready. Protect your home from drafts and you will be warmer and your home will be more energy efficient.
Here are some steps to take.
- Have an energy audit performed. Our geothermal technicians perform energy audits that will show areas where heated and cooled air is escaping. Drafts around windows and doors are a major loss of the heated and cooled air you’re paying for. Add weather stripping or caulk or replace the windows if they simply can’t be made energy efficient.
- Is the attic insulation sufficient? Many homes are under-insulated. Talk with our technicians to discover if your home is properly insulated and that you’re not loosing heated and cooled air through the roof.
- Check and change HVAC filters, or we can do that for you when we inspect your heating and cooling unit at the beginning of the season.
- Are your air ducts leaking? This is an area of the home in which you can lose a lot of energy. The air ducts carry the heated and cooled air throughout the house and if they’re leaking you’re losing the heated and cooled air you’re paying for.
- Planning an HVAC update or upgrade? Ask us for help in assuring you’re getting the correct unit for the size of your home or commercial building. Bigger isn’t necessarily better — HVAC units need to be properly sized for your home or business in order to be energy efficient.
