SDG&E Rate Increase Last Fall Impacts Summer AC Bills
Last Fall, SDG&E performed a rate hike on roughly 25% of San Diego residents that will increase the rates which those customers pay for their energy. With the Summer season approaching quickly, this year will be the first full year which residents will experience these higher rates for an entire cooling season. Fortunately, the experts at Mauzy Heating, Air & Solar have some solutions that can help curb your energy bills while still keeping you cool all Summer long.
AC Service: Cleaning, Coolant & Inspection Lowers Energy Costs
Our first recommendation is make sure that your annual air conditioning service is completed every year. This year is an especially important year to complete your AC service if you were effected by the rate increase! An annual air conditioning service performed by a quality air conditioning expert will guarantee that your system is operating at maximum efficiency all season long. A system which is finely serviced will utilize significantly less energy than a neglected system due to the fact that it simply won’t need to work as hard!
Consider Upgrading Your Air Conditioner
If you have an air conditioner that is currently several years old or older, it might be time to consider upgrading your air conditioner. Recent advances in technology have made air conditioners run at extreme levels of efficiency compared to older AC systems. These upgrades in technology have allowed for creation of systems which can produce cool air without using nearly as much energy as older systems. You should expect to see a drastic reduction in your energy bills when upgrading to a modern, high efficiency air conditioner!
