Best Ways to Stay Cool & Save Money This Summer
Staying comfortable and being efficient can go hand in hand this summer if you follow some of these tips.
Get Your A/C in Fighting Shape with a Tune-up
Both ductless mini-split units and central air conditioners should be maintained with a service tune-up once a year. Before summer starts, consider scheduling an A/C tune-up. A/C tune-ups are great because they:
- Increase your system’s efficiency.
- Save money on repair costs/emergency service fees.
- Prepare your system to keep you cool all summer long.
Don’t wait until the South Shore is already boiling, book your tune-up with us today!
Time for an A/C Upgrade?

That means if you upgrade, you’ll be able to stay cool this summer and have lower energy bills. There are more benefits too:
- Fewer repairs/reduced maintenance costs.
- More consistent performance and comfort.
- Lower energy bills via increased efficiency.
Whether you’re interested in upgrading to a new ductless mini-split or a central A/C system, Albert Culver will provide expert advice and exemplary service.

Plan Ahead: Summer’s Secret Savings Suggestions
Here’s another hot summer tip that’s as cool as they come: heating oil prices often dip during the summer. That means if you order heating oil now, you can keep your tank full and ready for the chilly season while saving money. Another big benefit is that keeping your tank full year-round can help you prevent condensation and resulting corrosion that could damage your tank. So not only will you save money on cheaper oil prices, your summer oil order will also help to prevent damage and leaks.
Other Cool Home Hacks for Hot Weather
There are also plenty of simple ways to keep your home cooler this summer, including:
- Keep cool air inside by shutting windows and using weather stripping to seal gaps.
- Grill out more often to avoid heating things up in the kitchen.
- Use a programmable thermostat to create a cooling schedule that best fits your needs.
We hope you give some of these tips a try to help you keep it chill this summer.
