Check for air leaks

Air leakage through the envelope of commercial buildings in the United States accounts for approximately 6% of their energy use. Walk through your facility to identify drafty areas that would benefit from sealing & caulking.

clean air filter

Raise AC thermostat

Most systems are set to 72–75˚°F and 50% relative humidity. Raising the thermostat to 78°F and 55% relative humidity can reduce HVAC energy usage by 13%.

clear air vents

Clean or change air filters

Regularly change or clean HVAC filters every month during peak heating season.

In many circumstances, using a ceiling fan will allow you to adjust building temperatures by 4° to 8°F with no reduction in comfort to building occupants.
