Arizona Public Service (APS) provides an online free energy survey to help you better manage your energy use and save money. This quick and easy survey can provide an excellent evaluation of your home’s energy use and help you pinpoint the exact measures that can increase energy efficiency and lower your bills.

As air conditioning in Arizona makes up more than half of your energy expense in the warmer months, this is a very useful tool. To access the survey, visit www.aps.com/letter. If you are one of the many homes served by APS, you can download your actual energy use for even more customized results when you register with aps.com. There is no charge for this valuable service.

While you are at www.aps.com/letter, check out the “Save Energy” section for more tips on how to reduce your energy consumption and save money.

If you have questions about your results, or like to see them improved, contact Arizona Air Conditioning by Jay for answers.

For those homes served by APS for their electricity, you receive by mail an Energy Use And Costs report annually for your home. It details your monthly energy usage and costs, and compares it against the previous year.

This very useful report lets you see how many kWh (kilowatt hours) you are using per month, how much was on peak and off, your total energy costs for the month, and averages out your costs per day. With this report you can see exactly where and when you are using the most power and your total energy expense for the year.

As they say, anything that is measured can be improved. You can better manage your Phoenix air conditioning energy expense by using less during the peak times, 9am to 9pm Monday Friday. By shifting your heaviest air conditioning time to off peak, you can save money. You can also do your clothes washing, running your dishwasher to off peak hours to increase your savings.

Your air conditioning duct work could be costing you a lot of money. Duct work is hidden in the cavities of your house and rarely seen or inspected. If there are holes or the system was improperly installed, you could have conditioned air going into non-living spaces.
