Heating
Heating and cooling your home uses more energy and drains more energy dollars than any other system in your home. Typically, 44% of your utility bill goes for heating and cooling. By installing a Carrier High Efficiency Gas Furnace, such as the Performance 93, you can reduce your heating costs by 30% over the year. As an Energy Star® partner, Carrier has determined that the Performance ™ 96% gas furnace meets the ENERGY STAR® guidelines for energy efficiency. Keep in mind, an energy efficient furnace alone will not have as great an impact on your energy bills as using the whole house approach. By combining proper equipment, maintenance and upgrades with appropriate insulation, weatherization and thermostat setting, you can cut your energy bills in half.
Cooling
Living in the Beautiful Bay Area doesn’t require that we all have state-of-the central air systems. But cool air often means clean air and that’s where Express Heating & Air Conditioning and Carrier® team up to customize a comfortable home system tailored to your needs. Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio, or SEER, is like gas mileage. A higher SEER rating means a more energy efficient air conditioning system. In savings talk, that means: For every $100 spent to cool your home using a 14 SEER air conditioner, a 16 SEER air conditioner should cost you approximately $71. Keep in mind, an energy efficient air conditioner alone will not have as great an impact on your energy bills as using the whole house approach. By combining proper equipment, maintenance and upgrades with appropriate insulation, weatherization and thermostat setting, you can cut your energy bills in half.
