Staying cool and comfortable during Arizona\u2019s summer months is vital to your health, well-being, and will to live. So the best approach is to make energy efficiency a priority.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times;color: #333333;font-size: 14pt\">In Phoenix, a household\u2019s air conditioning can account for 50 percent or more of the total electric bill in summer.

A Seer rating is the ratio of the cooling output of an air conditioner over a typical cooling season, divided by the energy it consumed in Watt-Hours. The <a style=\"color: #333333\" href=\"https:\/\/www.energy.gov\/energysaver\/central-air-conditioning\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">seasonal energy efficiency ratio (SEER)<\/a> efficiency of heat pumps and air conditioners is demonstrated by this ratio. The higher the SEER rating, the more efficiently the unit will cool your home.

A few extra easy-to-do tips for keeping your home comfortable while conserving energy include:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333333\"><strong><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times\">14.<\/span>\u00a0<span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times;font-size: 14pt\"> Protect against heat gain with window finishings.\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times;font-size: 14pt\">Window shades and white or light colored curtains or drapes can help keep the heat out, simply by closing them during the day, when the sun is most intense.\u00a0The U.S. Dept. of Energy estimates that closed curtains can reduce the amount of heat entering a home by\u00a0 45 percent.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times;font-size: 16pt\">Aluminum foil and cardboard\u2014what every energy-efficient Phoenix home is wearing<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333333\"> <strong><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times\">15<\/span>.\u00a0<span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times;font-size: 14pt\">Another simple measure,<\/span><\/strong><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times;font-size: 14pt\"> while not as visually appealing as it is effective, involves cardboard and aluminum foil. Cover pieces of cardboard with foil and place them between your windows and curtains to reflect the heat back outside and away from your home.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333333\"><strong><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times\">16.\u00a0<span style=\"font-size: 14pt\">Outdoor awnings will throw serious shade on your home.<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #333333;font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times;font-size: 14pt\">Outdoor awnings are another great way to inhibit hear gain inside your home. They provide ample shade over windows and glass doors, blocking the sun substantially. Strategically placed outdoor awnings can actually reduce the heat entering your home by eighty percent!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333333;font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times;font-size: 14pt\">Thankfully, the West Valley is home to an endless variety of restaurants, clubs, museums, and social hotspots for you to explore this summer. Go out a little more often, stay out a little later and enjoy the complementary airconditioning with friends and family.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333333;font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times;font-size: 14pt\">Of course, the go-to heat-beater during Phoenix summers is the backyard swimming pool.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.gentryrealestategroup.com\/buylowazteam\/files\/2018\/01\/EQUAL_HOUSING_OPPORTUNITY_LOGO2.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1176\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gentryrealestategroup.com\/buylowazteam\/files\/2018\/01\/EQUAL_HOUSING_OPPORTUNITY_LOGO2.png\" alt=\"Equal Housing Opportunity\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt\">Energy conservation tips for Phoenix summers<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>16 energy-saving tips that will make summer in Phoenix more manageable than you think!
