Smarter Building Performance

Practical Energy-Saving Tips That Start With the Building

Small habits, regular maintenance and a well-planned building envelope can work together to support comfort and more efficient heating and cooling.

Nine Smart Actions

Build an Energy-Saving Routine

Begin with easy actions, observe the results and address building-envelope concerns when comfort problems continue.

Quick Start

Use Thoughtful Temperature Settings

Avoid large, unnecessary temperature swings and use scheduled settings that match when the building is occupied.

Tip: Change settings gradually and observe comfort before making another adjustment.
Quick Start

Manage Sunlight & Window Coverings

Use shades, curtains and natural sunlight strategically to reduce unwanted heat gain or retain warmth when appropriate.

Tip: Adjust coverings by orientation and time of day instead of treating every window the same.
Quick Start

Switch Off Unneeded Loads

Turn off lights and equipment in unused areas and review devices that remain on or in standby without a clear need.

Tip: Group appropriate electronics on accessible power strips for a simpler shutoff routine.
Maintenance

Keep Airflow Paths Clear

Do not block supply or return openings with furniture, storage or heavy coverings that interfere with intended airflow.

Tip: Walk through the building seasonally and check every accessible register and return.
Maintenance

Check HVAC Filters & Service Needs

Inspect filters on the schedule appropriate for the equipment and arrange professional service when operation or comfort changes.

Tip: Follow the equipment and filter manufacturer's instructions rather than using one interval for every system.
Maintenance

Inspect Doors, Windows & Hatches

Look for worn seals, loose closures and obvious gaps around common openings, including attic access panels.

Tip: Address water entry or structural movement before treating a gap as a simple air-leak repair.
Professional

Review Attic Insulation Coverage

Thin, displaced or uneven coverage and unsealed penetrations may affect how the top of the building performs.

Tip: Keep required clearances and ventilation needs in mind before adding material.
Professional

Investigate Crawl Space Conditions

Cold floors, moisture, outside-air pathways or damaged insulation are reasons to evaluate the crawl space as a complete system.

Tip: Identify bulk-water and drainage concerns before selecting an insulation approach.
Professional

Plan Air Sealing With Insulation

Insulation and air control work best when the assembly, transitions and penetrations are considered together.

Tip: Ask for recommendations tied to the actual building instead of selecting material by name alone.

Think in Continuous Layers

Energy performance is influenced by how insulation and air-control layers connect around the entire conditioned space.

The Building Envelope

Comfort Problems Often Follow the Weakest Connection

Adding insulation to one area can help, but lasting improvement begins with understanding where the thermal and air-control boundaries should be and how they connect.

  • 1Start at the attic or roofline, where access and existing conditions can be reviewed.
  • 2Follow walls, windows, doors and transitions for gaps or discontinuities.
  • 3Finish at floors, rim areas and crawl spaces while accounting for moisture.

Energy use and comfort depend on many factors, including weather, equipment, occupant behavior and building condition. Improvements should be selected after reviewing the specific property.

Seasonal Routine

Keep Energy-Saving Habits Working All Year

A short seasonal review can reveal maintenance needs before they become larger comfort or performance problems.

Before Cold Weather

  • Review doors, windows and attic access
  • Check heating-system maintenance needs
  • Look for cold-floor or draft complaints

Before Warm Weather

  • Service cooling equipment as appropriate
  • Confirm vents and returns are unobstructed
  • Plan shading for high-sun windows

Year-Round

  • Track unusual comfort changes by room
  • Inspect visible moisture concerns promptly
  • Compare energy use under similar conditions
