Paying closer attention to your HVAC system is one way to control your finances. In fact, it's a major part of your total household energy consumption according to energy.gov.

Reduce Downtime

There's nothing worse than having your heat not work on a cold winter day or your air conditioner quit when it's sweltering out. If you need an emergency repair, you'll have downtime until it can get properly fixed. Regular HVAC system maintenance can help prevent those scenarios from happening in the first place.
