Let Cleaner Ducts Lower Your Heating Costs This Winter

In a time where inflation is the highest this generation has ever seen, everyone is looking for ways to save money. Fortunately, it is possible to save a buck this winter.

When it comes to utility costs, there is one step homeowners and renters can take in order to lower their heating bills as we head into cooler months.

Just as the price of everything seems to be shooting up, we can expect the same for heating costs. Many media outlets are forecasting an expensive season for staying comfortable over the next several weeks and beyond.

As costs bounce way back from the depths we saw early in the pandemic, being proactive today will save money down the road.

Higher Utility Costs Expected

Utility companies are looking to pass higher costs on to users this winter, but a simple service from a licensed professional ahead of time can help curb some of that burden being placed on homeowners. Keeping a home comfortable as the temperatures fall is one of the biggest sources of energy consumption for an HVAC system.

Looking at data from the US Department of Energy shows that residents can reduce the cost of power by as much as 30% with the right maintenance to their HVAC system. This regular maintenance includes one critical task in particular.

A Little Duct Cleaning Goes a Long Way

Circulating warm air throughout a house or apartment requires more energy than you may think—especially if there is dust or debris hindering the air as it tries to make its way through your ducts.

While the right filtration components can block much of the particles otherwise making their way into your living space, these contaminants may be piling up out of sight throughout your ductwork.

Removing the foreign matter from your ducts using powerful vacuums and other proven means provides several benefits beyond just lower utility bills for homeowners. Breathing cleaner air with fewer allergens or other irritants and even removing unpleasant odors residents may have become accustomed to are other perks of the service.

If you are interested in saving money on the costs of keeping your home comfortable, now is the time to schedule the right maintenance to make it happen. Call Ideal Conditions at 904-379-8762 or get in touch online to schedule a consultation with one of our pros today!
