Episode 114: How much can you really save by adjusting your thermostat?

Send us Fan MailWith climate change, there have been more heat waves. This lead me to thinking about our use of air conditioning and the cost associated with it. In this episode, I talk about how much energy and money is saved by setting the thermostat to a warmer temperature in the summer and cooler temperature in the winter. This could be done all the time, or only when no one is home. I go over the cost of air conditioning per hour and measures of efficiency for AC units. Of course, there are other ways to decrease energy used to heat and cool your home other than adjusting the thermostat.  I reference a few websites in this episode, including https://smartenergy.comhttps://www.energy.gov/energysaver/https://www.irs.gov/credits-deductions/energy-efficient-home-improvement-credithttps://www.bls.gov/regions/midwest/data/averageenergyprices_selectedareas_table.htm Please subscribe and leave a review on your favorite Podcasting platform. Get 12 Financial Mistakes that Keep Physicians from Building Wealth at https://www.growyourwealthymindset.com/12financialmistakesIf you want to start your path to financial freedom, start with the Financial Freedom Workbook.
