When it comes to summer in the tropics, the quest for home energy efficiency can seem futile. Fortunately, 3-D Sheetmetal of Honolulu, HI, is prepared to offer their expertise—a domain which ranges from sheet metal fabrication to metal roofing and HVAC maintenance.

With the height of summer approaching, take advantage of these energy efficiency tips from their trusted staff:

• Make Use Of Natural Ventilation: On an extraordinarily hot day, you might be tempted to crank the air conditioning—but too much stress on your heating and cooling system can ultimately result in costly repairs and replacements. Instead, open the windows at night to let the cool winds naturally lower the temperature of your indoor air. When the sun returns, draw your window coverings to block out extra heat.
• Master Your Thermostat: When you’re spending time in your home, try to keep your temperature set at the highest comfortable degree in order to save on your energy bill. If you’re going out for the day, raise the temperature on your thermostat. Leave items that give off heat—such as lamps or TVs—away from your thermostat, as they could be causing your system to run for too long.
• Schedule A Visit With A Technician: With face-to-face help from the skilled staff of 3-D Sheetmetal, you can identify and solve any issues that might be contributing to low energy efficiency. A member of their team can perform HVAC maintenance on the internal components of your air conditioning system or heat pump and ensure that ducts aren’t being blocked by debris, buildup, or furniture.
