During the hottest months of the year, your air conditioner is working overtime, trying to keep you and your family cool and comfortable. What you may not know, however, is that your HVAC system could be working unnecessarily hard due to a lack of efficiency, which can lead to a spike in your summer energy bills.

Boost the Efficiency of Your Heating and Cooling Systems

As the most expensive appliance in most homes in terms of energy use, you need to keep your HVAC system operating as efficiently as possible. Here are some tips to make sure your air conditioning is running at its most effective:

• Install a thermostat that tracks usage
