My Air Conditioner Isn't Cooling My House - 5 Amazing FixesAdam N' Julie Lewis
There are several ways to fix an air conditioner that is not cooling effectively. Using a thermal detector can uncover air leaks around windows and doors that cause cool air loss. Replacing old, single pane windows with more efficient dual pane windows can also help retain cool air. Attic ventilation options like ridge vents or attic fans are important to remove hot air, and more attic insulation will further improve cooling. Installing a whole house fan can also significantly cool the home with a strong breeze.
It is simple. We all learn in school how it is best to wear a white shirt on hot days to beat the heat. White reflects the heat off, keeping you cool while dark colors absorb heat and make you feel hot. Using this principle, painting your roof white or installing light colored roofs will help you keep your home cool. This is what is known as the cool roof. Cool roofs stay cool by reflecting and emitting as much the sun’s energy. With minimum heat transferred into your home, cool roofs help you cut down your cooling expenses and considerably reduce the energy bills.
This document provides tips for keeping cool in the summer on a budget. It recommends setting the thermostat to 78 degrees or higher when home and 80 degrees or higher when away to save on cooling costs. Other tips include using fans, closing windows and curtains during the day, turning off unnecessary lights and electronics, and installing attic fans or window films. Following these low-cost changes can help keep a home cool while saving money on utility bills.

Alt Air Energy provides green energy solutions for homes and businesses, including their Super Cyclone Attic Fan. The attic fan is powered by solar panels and vents attics of up to 1600 square feet, helping reduce energy costs by up to 35%. It installs easily on various roof types and qualifies for a 30% federal tax credit. By removing heat and moisture from attics, the fan helps keep homes cooler with less AC use while preventing mold and mildew growth.
Spray foam insulation is effective for insulating attics, which can significantly reduce heating and cooling costs. Attics are typically not insulated but still impact energy usage as heat rises. Spray foam insulation seals air leaks and gaps around joists and ductwork in the attic, preventing hot or cold air from escaping and ensuring all areas of the home are efficiently heated and cooled. It also allows proper ventilation of the roof to prevent moisture or sun damage to shingles. Using spray foam insulation throughout the home, including the attic, is an easy way to insulate effectively and lower energy bills.

Besides the aesthetics of a newly minted infill, there’s a lot more to the home build than meets the eye. Given the rapid growth in popularity of infills some people may rush to invest in their dream home and often overlook (or don’t consider) important aspects of the home during construction.
Here are some modern building techniques to look out for. These methods will improve the efficiency, longevity and safety of your new home!
The document describes the Hudson Passive Project, a green home in New York that incorporates passive solar design principles. It is the first certified passive house in New York State. Key features include a compact design with continuous insulation and air sealing to minimize heat loss, a south-facing wall of glass to maximize solar gain, and an open floor plan framed by large wooden beams. Through meticulous design and construction, the project achieves ultra-high energy efficiency while maintaining an aesthetically pleasing design that blends with the local rural landscape.
When you are topping up your attic insulation, your objective is to improve the energy efficiency of your home by increasing the R-value of the attic insulation to reduce energy loss. One important consideration is what R-value is right for your home?
Installing a cool roof can reduce energy costs and help the environment. Traditional dark roofs absorb heat from the sun, contributing to urban areas being hotter than rural areas. A cool roof is lighter in color and reflects more sunlight, keeping the roof up to 100 degrees cooler. This cools homes and reduces air conditioning costs by up to 70%. Cool roofs also lessen pollution by reducing the need for fossil fuels to power air conditioning. Both flat and pitched roofs can be made into cool roofs using white coatings or light-colored shingles and tiles respectively.
A breezeway can provide extra living space and protection between areas of a home like the house and garage. Breezeways can be open or enclosed, with an open design working well in warm climates and an enclosed design allowing use of the space in all weather and providing protection from harsh climates. An enclosed breezeway works best if the space will be used as a mudroom or play area for children for security reasons. Planning considerations include hiring professionals, building codes, and complementary design to the overall home appearance.

How to Make Sure Your New Home is ready for the Cold Winter
Months
Buying a home is one of the most exciting
purchases you will make in your life. After
you buy it and get ready to move in, you will
probably make a few changes to make it
your own. For example, you can paint it,
change the carpets, and arrange the
furniture and décor. There can also be more
serious repairs, such as fixing the plumbing
or roof.
One of the major considerations with a newly purchased home is to weather-proof it. If
you want your home more comfortable and reduce bills, here are some ways to help
make sure your newly purchased home is ready for the cold winter months.
Seal up leaks - Leaks can be abundant in your newly purchased home if the previous
owners were not careful to maintain the property. Your doors and windows can let out
substantial heat which can raise your heating bill. Caulk around doors and windows,
and seal up any leaks in your heating ducts. Also check if you have air leaks around
electrical plugs on the wall or floor.
Set your thermostat once - You can save money on your gas or electric bill just by
turning your thermostat up a degree or two. You may not even notice the difference in
temperature when you change the setting from, say, 75 degrees to 74 degrees. You
will also be helping the environment by saving this extra energy. Do not make major
changes in temperature when you’re not home. The cost for your heating system to
catch up when you come home offsets the savings with drastic thermostat changes
during the day.

Add insulation - If your home has an attic, insulate it or add extra insulation. This is
particularly important if your newly purchased home was built more than 10 years ago
since older homes have less insulation in the ceiling and walls. Insulating your newly
purchased home can prevent loss of heat during winter. Be sure to add insulation
and/or weatherstripping to the attic access panel or pull down stairs – that is a big
area of heat loss in homes. As a bonus, your new home will be cooler in summer.
Change your light bulbs - During the short days of winter, you may be awake
several hours a day while it is dark outside. That can translate to keeping the lights on
in your house quite a bit. Change the light bulbs from older, traditional incandescent
bulbs to halogen incandescent or compact fluorescent replacements, which use less
energy.
Get your sprinklers ready - To avoid having pipes burst when water freezes in them,
winterize your sprinkler system if you have one. Disconnect hoses outside, even if the
weather is sometimes warm during the winter months. Older-style exterior faucets
should be set to drip or drain the water lines if you have a separate disconnect for
outside faucets. If you’re not sure, your inspection report may tell you if you have a
separate water shut-off for exterior faucets.
