My hubby plus I were having a lot of difficulty figuring out why our electric bill was so high this year, however it costs almost 50% more this year than it did last year.
- All of us dug out an aged bill plus the rate hadn’t gone up, then so it had to be something else, however the only thing the people I was with and I could suppose of is the fact that our air conditioner has to work truly taxing to keep the cabin cool.
It didn’t used to have to run non-stop in order to cool the house. So the people I was with and I called up an air conditioner company plus asked them to take a look. It turners out that there is nothing wrong with the air conditioner itself. The problem is with our air duct. It is leaking a lot of air. The corporations said that half of the air that our air conditioner is protruding is escaping outside. That is insane. Thankfully they were able to repair it with some air duct sealing. They sealed up all of our air duct plus even substituted a few ducts. I have to say that the people I was with and I can already tell the difference. The air coming out of the vents feels much colder. Additionally, the air conditioner is not running non-stop anymore. It only turns on for a few minutes then it turners back off for several minutes. I think that it will take a few weeks for this air duct sealing to reflect on our electric bill but I am looking forward to it doing so. I bet the people I was with and I will see a major decrease in our bill. This didn’t just happen. It has been going on for awhile now. So I’m ecstatic the people I was with and I finally got it fixed.
