An incorrectly used hvac air conditioning system can be costly to run especially in a home environment. Most people don't realize that a large portion of your homes energy bill is made up from your air conditioning system. Below are 5 tips to help you cut the costs of running your air conditioning unit.

1) Set An Average Temperature - Too many people set an air conditioners controller top the extremes. To save money on running costs, pick an average room temperature and you will be amazed at the difference in running costs over a few months.

2) Test Refrigerant Levels - Get a refrigeration contractor or mechanic to inspect your system for any refrigerant leaks. If your system has slowly lost performance over a period of time, it is a good sign of a gas leak.

3) Seal Off Any Draughts - Draughts and gusts of wind can really cool down your home when your trying to warm it up in winter. Draught stoppers and sealing cracks can reduce these draughts which will keep the warmth in and reduce your heating bills substantially.

4) Know How To Use Your Unit - There are very few people that know how to fully use their air conditioner to it's full capacity. Speak to an air conditioning contractor for some advice on how you can run your system better.

5) Clean Both Ducts & Filters -Give your air conditioning ductwork and filters a quick clean. Nothing will give you such instantaneous results as doing this.

These 5 simple tips can save you hundreds of dollars off your next electricity bill.
