Digital Setback Thermostat
A digital setback thermostat is designed for people with fixed schedules that take them out of the home.  With a digital setback thermostat you can program the temperature to “set back” when you are not at home and to adjust to a comfortable temperature when you are home. As an added plus, a digital setback saves you money by being more accurate (with in 1 degree) of your set point. You can set the program for up to four variations per day.

Attic Ventilator
Take the load off your air conditioner. Have you been in your attic in the summer? It’s HOT, Right? That’s why you need an attic ventilator. An attic ventilator exhausts the hot air from your attic and brings in cooler air from the outside, thus helping your air conditioner cool your home. This air circulation greatly reduces the heat load on your home and allows your air conditioner to work more efficiently and cool your home faster.  The Bottom Line:  Adding an attic ventilator to your home will save you money and make you more comfortable.

Insulation
Adding insulation to your attic will help keep cool air in your home and the heat of the summer out. Also more insulation will help keep warm air in your home during the winter. If you have a crawl space adding insulation under your home will also add comfort and increase efficiency.
