Quick Operational Adjustments for Enhanced HVAC Energy Efficiency

The 3 kEys  A common rule-of-thumb is that raising the cooling setpoint by 1°F can lead to about a 3% decrease in energy consumption. In practice, this means if you raise the setpoint by 2°F, you might see around a 6% reduction.  Regularly verify that supply and return dampers are properly balanced to optimize airflow.
