Reduce Your Energy Costs

By upgrading to a more energy efficient air conditioning system, you may see your utility bills drop by as much as 40%, potentially saving you hundreds of dollars a year in energy costs.

The government has set the minimum seasonal energy efficiency ratio (SEER) at 13. SEER is a measure of energy efficiency, with higher SEER numbers delivering greater efficiency. To be considered an Energy Star product, an air conditioner must perform at 14 SEER or higher.

All Year Cooling offers several Energy Star rated products, many of which far surpass the 14 SEER minimum to carry the Energy Star rating. Many of today's systems include features like humidity control and programmable thermostats that allow homeowners to further reduce their energy costs.

In addition to the money and energy saving capabilities of energy efficient air conditioners, the federal government is offering a tax credit of up to $1,500 for air conditioning systems that operate at energy efficiency levels of at least 16 SEER as a part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. Many products available through All Year Cooling qualify for the tax credit, which ends December 31, 2010, so take advantage while you still can.
