When the mercury soars:

- Keep blinds closed during the hottest parts of the day
Fall: Transitioning to Cooler Weather
As leaves change color:
- Have your heating system inspected
- Seal any air leaks around windows and doors
- Reverse ceiling fan direction to circulate warm air
Winter: Staying Warm and Cozy
When frost is on the ground:
- Set your thermostat to 68°F (20°C) for energy savings
- Ensure proper insulation in attics and walls
- Consider a humidifier to combat dry indoor air
By following these seasonal tips and partnering with Aqua Plumbing & Air for your HVAC needs, you can ensure year-round comfort in your home. Remember, regular maintenance and timely upgrades are key to efficient operation and longevity of your climate control systems.
