What are the best ways to save on energy costs?

There is no denying that each year, our summers are getting warmer and winters are getting colder. For homeowners, the cost to heat or cool a home can be expensive. At Twintech, we have some helpful tips on how to save money on your next energy bill. 

One of the best ways to save money is by upgrading your old furnace or air conditioning units into more energy-efficient ones. Installing a programmable thermostat will also keep your costs down as you can adjust the temperature according to your schedule and keep your home at a comfortable temperature. You can also place weather stripping around the windows during the colder months so that the warm air stays in your home. 

Regular maintenance of your furnace and air conditioner can help cut the cost of heating and cooling in your home. Your air conditioning maintenance routine can include keeping the condenser coil clean by spraying with a gentle hose spray. Always keep your air filter clean on the furnace too, it’s vital to the operation and efficiency of your AC unit. If you need professional assistance, our technicians can come to your home, inspect your units and provide any maintenance you may need. Adding a ceiling fan to your home will help circulate the air so that your air conditioner does not overexert itself and break down. 

If you want to save money on electric bills, switching from an electric water heater to a gas one is the key. Our technicians can install a new gas heater into your home and put in any necessary gas lines. You may also want to consider insulating the first meter of your hot water pipes and any pipes that run through unheated parts of your home. Additionally, you can install an energy-efficient shower head that will not only save water but also reduce the energy that is used to heat it. 

For more information about our products and services, visit our website or give us a call at 1-844-894-6832. We will answer any questions you may have, call Twintech today! If your units require maintenance, we would be more than happy to set you up with an appointment with one of our service technicians.

Greg came by to do a routine furnace checkup. He was very knowledgeable and professional, letting me know what's being checked/adjusted and giving me tips to ensure everything runs smooth. Very honest and upfront about what's working fine vs. what may need to be fixed/replaced. He didn't attempt to up sell anything that wasn't necessary. I'm glad to have finally found someone I can trust and rely on for all my HVAC needs - furnace, A/C, and hot water tank.

by Paul M. from Toronto on Twintech Heating and Cooling

I'm very happy with the work that was done. Everyone from salesperson to the installers were friendly and professional. They were on time and cleaned up the job site after it was installed. They also answered all my follow up questions promptly. I wouldn't hesitate to work with them or recommend them again.

Thanks to the team at Twin Tech for a great job installing my new heat pump/ac unit. The guys were very polite and professional. When they left you would never have known they had been there except for the new Mitsubishi unit on the wall!! would highly recommend the Twin Tech team.

Very impressed with this company. They show up on time , kept my place clean and after they left it looks like they were never there. Very professional team. Those people know what they doing .

After the installation I receive the call making sure I'm satisfied with their products and their job. Bravo!!!

Greg and his brother were referred to us by a friend. They arrived when they said they would, did an exceptional job and left the place as tidy or tidier then they found it. Their professionalism is only surpassed by their kind and friendly demeanor. Even after several calls to help me with my high tech thermostat I feel that I could always call with any concern (No one responds to my texts as quickly as Greg) and have a friendly helpful response. I found out their grandfather started the company and now as a 3rd generation company, they are doing their grandfather proud. I would highly recommend Twintech over any other hvac company out there.

by RJW in Ajax on Twintech Heating and Cooling

Thanks to the guys at Twintech Heating for a great job installing a new hot water tank. They set a time and day to remove the old tank and install the new one. They were on time and had the work done quickly and cleaned up after they were finished. Excellent work and great value.

by Marilyn in Milton on Twintech Heating and Cooling

In November, we contacted Twintech for a quote on a high efficiency furnace plus installation. Dave, the sales representative for the company was very friendly and informative. Upon arrival at our home, he willingly showed us his company licenses, clearly explained the operation of a high efficiency furnace and answered all our questions to our satisfaction. As well, Dave was the only sales representative that we contacted that was willing to make the arrangements for an energy audit. For us, this was a big plus as we found the government rebate program somewhat confusing to navigate. The furnace was installed on the date that was arranged in an efficient and professional manner by Greg (the owner) and Peter. Both men worked diligently, throughout a long day to complete the job and upon finishing, left the job site immaculate. When a neighbour raised concerns about the furnace venting location, Greg located an alternative location and resolved the situation with diplomacy. We chose the Napoleon furnace for its excellent warrant;y on the heat exchanger and because it was made in Canada! In addition, to the furnace warranty, Twintech offered us a 5 year warranty on labour which speaks to the quality and pride this team has in their workmanship. It has been over a month now (with some of the coldest January days on record) since we have had the furnace installed. The furnace runs quietly and distributes heat more evenly throughout our 90 year old Toronto home. We can't speak highly enough of the Twintech team and are very satisfied with their workmanship and job ethics. We have no hesitation about recommending them.
