We encourage our customers to invest in energy-efficient heating and air conditioning equipment in Modesto, CA for their homes. The newest high-efficiency air conditioners can make a tremendous difference in how much energy a house uses and also helps the home lower its impact on the environment.

Why Your Cooling Costs Have Spiked and How We Can Help

At Greenhart, our motto is “Live Green, Save Green!” We’re more than a company offering standard service for air conditioners, heaters, insulation, and water heaters. We specialize in finding ways to help customers save money with equipment that also helps the environment thanks to high energy efficiency. We can help you solve problems you may have with inefficient home equipment performance.

And since it’s now officially summer, the time is right to address troubles with rising home cooling costs. You may not realize it, but the air conditioner in your house consumes more electricity than any other appliance (unless you have an electric water heater). The average AC uses 3,500 watts per hour to run. A clothes dryer uses 3,000 watts per hour and a ceiling fan a mere 100 watts.

Let’s take a look at why those costs may be skyrocketing and what we can do to help.

At Greenhart, we have a special focus that sets us apart from many other heating, air conditioning, ventilation, indoor air quality, and water heater contractors: we are committed to energy-saving solutions that not only help customers’ finances but also benefit the environment. We are BPI, Green, and EPA-certified, and we’re passionate about our dedication to both the environment and helping our customers “Live Green, Save Green!”

This is why the subject of the change in refrigerants in air conditioning systems is an important one. You may not be aware of it, but a major shift over the last twenty years altered the design of air conditioners to reduce their negative effects on the environment. You may have an older air conditioning system from before this change, and if so, we strongly recommend working with us to install a new, high-efficiency air conditioning system in Modesto, CA.
