Are you looking to save some energy this spring? Call the Las Vegas air conditioning specialists at Yes! Air Conditioning and Plumbing. We can help you out with upgrades that can make your air conditioner and your home more efficient.

Let us tune-up your air conditioner before the heat of the summer to ensure that your system will be ready to keep you cool all summer long.
Programmable Thermostat
With a programmable thermostat, you can preset your AC to turn on or off according to your schedule or to the weather patterns. While you may not need your home as cool when you are at work, you don’t want to turn the air conditioner completely off in the middle of a heat wave, especially if you have pets. A programmable thermostat allows you to program temperatures at different times of the day, and some models even feature weekend settings and will alert you when it is time to change air filters.
Insulation
Proper insulation in Las Vegas is not just important to keeping your home warm in winter; it is also important for staying cool in the summer. Radiant barriers and insulation keep the warm air out and cool air inside. An energy audit can give you a better idea of trouble spots and places where you may need to add insulation. While you may think your home has enough insulation, you’d be surprised with how much energy you can save by adding a little insulation to attics and other unfinished areas in your home.
Sealing Ductwork
According to the EPA, a good percentage of energy loss is lost through leaky ductwork. If you have air ducts that are installed in any areas that are not insulated or exposed to the elements, you may want to have your ducts tested. Sealing and insulating your ductwork can help to improve the efficiency of your AC system and your home.
