Labor Day Pre-Vacation Checklist πŸ“‹If you are taking a vacation over the holiday weekend, our home comfort experts have a short checklist of 10 easy tasks that will help prepare your house for your absence while saving you on utility-related energy costs and from stress inducing security issues or household damages!πŸ’‘ 1. LIGHT UP YOUR LABOR DAY - EVEN WHEN YOU'RE AWAYPair lighting fixtures with timers inside of your house with motion activated lighting outside of your home to give the appearance that you are home while also scaring off any potential intruders.🌑️ 2. REPROGRAM YOUR THERMOSTATAn empty house doesn't have the same comfort demands. Reset your thermostat to keep your home around 80-85 degrees during your end of summer absence to save money and energy. And, with a smart thermostat, you can always reset temperature controls from the road if weather conditions shift or your return date changes.🧳 3. GIVE YOUR WATER HEATER A VACAY, TOOTraditional water heaters heat and re-heat your home’s water supply so that you have hot water when you need it. The vacation mode setting on your water heater slows down this process, saving you money and energy while you are away. πŸ’¦ 4. CHECK IN ON YOUR SUMP PUMPThere's always potential for late summer storms and extreme downpours. Be sure to check in on your sump pump before you head out to make sure that it's ready to protect your home from water damage.πŸ“¬ 5. HOLD YOUR MAILA stuffed mailbox is a sure sign that you are on vacation. Set up a mail hold with the local post office to keep any mail out of your mailbox while you are vacationing.πŸ”Œ 6. UNPLUG SMALL ELECTRONICSUnplugging small appliances and electronics can save you a lot of money on your next electric bill (think toasters, cable boxes, video game consoles, etc.). Unplugging also protects them from damage if there is an electrical storm that causes a power surge. πŸ’§ 7. TURN THE WATER OFFTemporarily turning the water off to unneeded appliances will help protect your home from a potential leak. We suggest starting with your dishwasher, washing machine and sinks.ο»ΏπŸ”’ 8. LOCK IT UPTake the time to lock all entrances to your home - doors, windows, garages, doggie doors, bulkheads, etc. - and arm any security cameras to watch over your home while you are away.πŸͺ΄ 9. GO GREENWater your houseplants and set them up in a space where they'll receive the ideal amount of lighting.🫧 10. CLEAN UPClear out the fridge, take out the trash and tidy up. No one likes to return from vacation to a dirty house!Need help? πŸ“² Give our Carter Services expert plumbers, HVAC techs, appliance pros and electricians a call today for fast service ahead of Labor Day Weekend! ...

➑️ This August, Kick These Top 5 Energy-Draining Habits At Home To Go Greener + Save $$ β™»οΈπŸŒ‘οΈ Setting the Thermostat Too LowOne of the most common energy-draining habits in summer is setting the thermostat too low. While it may be tempting to keep your home ice-cold to combat the heat, excessively low thermostat settings can cause your HVAC system to work harder than necessary, leading to increased energy consumption.πŸ”§ Neglecting Regular HVAC MaintenanceNeglecting regular maintenance for your HVAC system is another energy-draining habit that can lead to decreased efficiency and increased energy consumption. πŸ’¨ Blocking Air Vents and RegistersBlocking air vents and registers with furniture, curtains, or other obstacles is a common mistake that can impede airflow and reduce the efficiency of your HVAC system. πŸ”₯ Running Heat-Generating AppliancesRunning heat-generating appliances such as ovens, stoves, and clothes dryers during the hottest part of the day can cause your HVAC system to work harder to maintain a comfortable temperature.🏑 Ignoring Home Insulation and SealingPoor insulation and air leaks can contribute to energy loss and reduce the efficiency of your HVAC system, especially during the summer months. ...
