Reining in your company’s energy use in Kingsland, GA, with mindful daily practices can help it be more sustainable and reduce your carbon footprint. One of the best ways to do this is by using your HVAC system thoughtfully. Here are four tips for reducing your company carbon footprint:
Take Advantage of Natural Ventilation
We know that summers in Georgia are warm and often humid during daytime work hours. On those days that are milder, open windows and turn on ceiling fans to circulate fresh air without cranking down the AC system. This will reduce energy costs and decrease emissions.
Maintain Your HVAC System
Routine scheduled HVAC maintenance is a great way to lessen your company’s impact on the environment and reduce your carbon footprint. During maintenance service, our service technicians will clean and tune your equipment, identify problem areas and check the filters. This will improve the performance and efficiency of the entire HVAC system.
Install Smart Thermostats
Smart thermostats are programmable and have remote access/operation capabilities. A programmable thermostat makes it easier to reduce HVAC usage when no one is in the building. As a result, it helps you lower energy use.
Upgrade Your HVAC Equipment
An older, outdated HVAC system is a drain on your overhead costs and strain on the environment. Upgrading to energy-efficient HVAC equipment with ENERGY STAR ratings will have a positive impact on your heating and cooling costs and the environment. Technologically advanced HVAC system will reduce your company carbon footprint.
