A new study by the U.S. Department of Energy recently showed how much energy a new heating and air conditioning system can save on your energy bills. The study looked at the current market: $14 billion that homeowners spent replacing nearly three million heating and cooling systems in 2019. The study found that heating and cooling account for about half of a home’s energy. They then calculated that, depending on your region, replacing heating and cooling equipment with higher efficiency models could reduce a home’s energy bill by 50% for electric systems and 10% for gas furnace systems.
In fact, the Dept. of Energy recommends Energy Star-certified heating and cooling equipment, which typically saves customers 10-30% off their bills. These products are independently certified to save energy without sacrificing any features or functionality.
