It’s no secret that we need to spend a lot of money and energy to keep ourselves cool during these Cocoa summers. We don’t have a lot of options – we’ve either got to shell out the money on energy bills to be comfortable at home, or we can suffer and sweat indoors all in the name of saving a few bucks.

Not too enticing of a trade-off, is it? Nobody wants to make that choice, and unfortunately far too many of us are forced to. However, it doesn’t need to be all bad news. There’s a way to save more money on the energy bills you’re paying for every month, and it doesn’t involve some penny-pinching methods of cutting corners to nickel and dime your way to an extra dollar or two.

No, this one is more extensive. Through solar-powered cooling and heating systems, you can introduce a much more energy-efficient way to maintain the ideal temperature in your home. A solar-powered solution offers a variety of benefits that traditional HVAC systems don’t provide, and Freedom Air & Heat can help you introduce one to your home!

Follow along while we sketch out the reasons a solar-powered cooling system may be the upgrade your home was looking for all along.

Less Money Spent!

This is the one everyone wants – and probably cares about – the most. A solar-powered cooling system is powered through a passive method, meaning you don’t have to actively turn it on to power it. It’ll soak up the sun all day long and convert that into energy for all your devices, giving you the power you need without forcing you to run an expensive piece of machinery.

And if the solar panels soak up more energy than you need to cool your home? No problem. Excess power gets routed back to the utility company, which can possibly entitle you to utility and tax credits. More money in your pocket!

Doing Good for the Earth

On top of the savings you’ll see, switching to a solar-powered system provides benefits to the world around us as well. According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), the need for electricity in the year 2100 will be more than 30 times greater than what it was in the year 2000.

We’re going to be needing more and more electricity the farther along we get, so it makes sense to save as much as we can right now. Solar-powered heating and cooling systems are a viable step in that direction, and even though your individual home won’t reverse any long-term change alone, it’s enough just to do our part.

When you trust Freedom Air & Heat to install a solar-powered heating and cooling system in your home, you’ll also receive access to readouts that let you view just how much you’re saving every month. The savings will quite literally be highlighted before your eyes, and you can view the environmental benefits on the same screen.
