Top Ways to Save Some Money During the Colder Months
Posted On: October 27, 2020
In Canada, we spend most of the year using our heaters. You'd think that we know everything there is to know about our heating systems. You'll be surprised how many homeowners do not know that their heating system at home is not efficient as they think.
How efficient is your heating system? Whether or not you know the answer, the following tips can help your entire home run more efficiently.
Add Insulation
It's very easy for heat to transfer from the warmer areas of your house to the cooler parts. That means heat can move out of your house through the walls. This is going to be more difficult when you have really good insulation to slow the transfer of heat. Adding insulation to your walls, attic, and crawlspaces can definitely make your home more energy-efficient.
Try Home Automation
This is gaining popularity. You get to control your lights, air conditioner, heater, some appliances, and even your garage door using a simple application on your smartphone. This lets you monitor the way you use energy and make the necessary changes remotely.
Seal All Air Leaks
You may not know it but heat is lost at certain points of your home. These are where air and heat can transfer in and out of the house easily. Seal up all the holes and cracks around your house and you'll definitely make your home more efficient.
Upgrade Your Thermostat
If a complete home automation is a bit out of your budget right now, you can opt to just upgrade the thermostat while still keeping track of the usage remotely. There are WI-FI enabled thermostats that allow you to control the temperature in your home wherever you may be. That means you can make more energy-smart adjustments even when you are at work or on a long vacation!
Turn the Temperature Down
Many homeowners tend to overestimate just how high they need to set their thermostat at home. You might want to try turning yours down, setting the temperature a few degrees lower.
Because you regularly use your heating system, you want to be sure that your home is as efficient as it possibly can. Even by following the tips above can contribute a lot!
If you want to make sure that your heating system is truly efficient, or if you are looking for an upgrade, call Twintech Heating & Cooling and we'll take care of it for you!

Reasonable price and the workmanship was prompt and timely and the employees were great to deal with.
May 2, 2020
The sales process was friendly, informative, and very consultative. They worked hard to earn our business by taking a careful look around our home to assess our needs, providing a lot of information about the product, and answering all our questions and finding the right solution for our home at a competitive price. They prepared us very well for what to expect on installation day, and the installation went very smoothly - no surprises, all very professional! They gave us a call after installation to ensure we were happy with the work. We're very happy that we chose to work with TwinTech to get our new furnace.

When our old oil furnace finally broke down we decided it was time to finally convert to natural gas and finally install central air conditioning at the same time. Knowing it was going to be a significant investment for us, we wanted to make the right choice. Twintech came highly recommended by a friend and we were not disappointed. From the first contact with the salesperson, until the final touches on the installation, we were so pleased with their service. Everyone from the company was so friendly, efficient and a pleasure to deal with. Best of all, the cost was very competitive. We would certainly recommend Twintech to anyone requiring HVAC work in their home.

Mitch from Twintech came out for our annual furnace inspection. We found him to be friendly, conscientious & he left the work area clean. We were also very impressed with the thoroughness of the job he did. This is the 2nd job weve had Twintech do for us & have been very happy with the results for each. We highly recommend this company. Thank you, Mitch, Dave & Greg.

Work was done on schedule, professionally, according to quote and with minimal inconvenience to building users. Very happy with the end result. The only area for improvement from my experience - need more timely quoting process.

The team was great! Very knowledgeable, professional and extremely helpful. A few days after install the unit didnt seem to be working, user error, but within minutes of contacting them..on a Saturday.. a tech was on the phone troubleshooting with us. I highly recommend Twintech for your cooling or heating needs. They stand by their products and a pleasure to deal with.

During the hottest week in the summer our old A/C decided to call it quits. I called Twintech Heating & Cooling after receiving a referral from a family member; came highly rated for being an honest, family-run business, who appreciates their customers. Dave was able to accommodate my hectic schedule and book a late evening appointment to walk through the specifics. Greg and Mitch arrived exactly on time a few days later, were very polite and friendly, and within a couple of hours had a new unit up and running. I also received a follow-up call to ensure we were happy with the Amana.
