High Electric and Gas bills

Texas Medley here with Medley Heating and Air Conditioning. High electric and gas bills? My kid calls about this all the time. It's easy to think that a faulty unit is causing a high electric or gas bill, but that's not always the case. Here are some things that you can check on your own. Most utility contracts expire, which can raise your bill significantly. Call your provider or shop around to make sure you're getting the best deal available. You'd be surprised how much money you can save. Has somebody worked in your attic recently? When attic insulation gets compressed or moved around, it loses its effectiveness. Consider having it inspected to get things back to normal or even better. It's common for people to make changes to their house and not realize how it affects energy consumption. Maybe you got a new roof, or maybe you cut down a tree, or maybe you got some new appliances or electronics that are running more than usual. All of this can really make a difference in your electric bill. Consider how you can upgrade your home or change your habits to use less energy. And finally, has your A.C. system been clean recently? A dirty system can cost up to 30% more to run than a clean system. Have us inspect your units. Maybe we can help lower your bill with some simple maintenance.
