Clinton Township – We Know It Inside Out
Clinton Township is home to a wide range of types of homes, from the single-story bungalow brick homes on the southeastern side along Harper Avenue to the ranch style and craftsman homes common on the western side near Fern Hill Golf Club. While many of these homes were built in different time periods and have a wide range of maintenance needs, we find that they all benefit from semi-annual service. Clinton Township homeowners who service their systems twice per year save 30% on their energy costs according to our studies.
Many of these homes in Clinton Township are used as Airbnbs. In our years of experience serving customers in Clinton Township, we have discovered some common concerns for the HVAC systems of houses used for short term stays.
The following section displays how the various home types and climate in Clinton Township affect HVAC services, and how Airbnbs affect the HVAC service.
Energy Efficiency Audits Are Recommended for Airbnb Properties
Consistent energy efficiency audits allow you to identify areas where the HVAC system may be losing energy, such as in areas of poor insulation or air leaks. Because operational costs of an HVAC system are generally higher due to the tendency of renters to run the HVAC more often and at more extreme temperatures, energy efficiency audits are important to keeping costs as low as possible. We estimate that ~87% of Airbnbs in Clinton Township would see tremendous savings from an energy efficiency audit.
This is why we recommend AC maintenance more often on Airbnbs than in regular housing.
Automating Cooling & Heating Schedules Saves Energy in Airbnbs
Because Airbnbs may sit vacant for days or weeks at a time between bookings, it is best to automate the cooling and heating schedules. Additionally, if the Airbnb is not occupied during the day, such as if it is more of a business rental, one may also consider an automated heating and cooling schedule. These schedules ensure the home is a comfortable temperature when occupied, but the HVAC system is not run constantly.
Many homeowners choose to have an automated schedule set up along with a smart thermostat as a part of AC service.
Older Homes Make Insulation More Difficult
Older homes in the area may have less effective insulation compared to newer homes, which can raise heating and cooling costs for families in the Clinton Township area. Clinton Township is not known for mild winters, as we especially experienced in 2014, 2015, and 2019, which compounds any insulation issues found in the older homes. As roughly 60% of Clinton Township homes have insufficient insulation, we recommend periodically checking your insulation to ensure your HVAC system is not unnecessarily overworked.
Many choose to have periodic heating maintenance performed to ensure their HVAC system is operating at peak efficiency.
Cooling Your Home is More Expensive than the Michigan Average
Cooling your home in Clinton Township is more expensive than the Michigan average as indicated by the cooling cost index seen further down this page. This concern is often exacerbated by the frequent lack of insulation allowing infiltration by humid air. This humid air can increase the load on your HVAC system and raise costs. It is important to take steps to keep your home as efficient as possible when it comes to keeping cool in the summer.
This is why many choose to have an energy-efficient air conditioning system installed in their home.
Smart Thermostat Installation Optimize Cooling Schedules, Leading to Cost Savings
To keep your home’s cooling system running efficiently, you may find it beneficial to install a smart thermostat. These reduce your annual heating and cooling costs by only expending energy when you and your family are at home, lowering your annual cost savings. Airbnb hosts save an average of $50 yearly on energy bills from a smart thermostat, but it can be much higher depending on the size of the home.
Many of our customers are choosing to have heating and cooling maintenance done along with the installation of a smart thermostat to save money every year.
Indoor Air Quality Could be Effected by Building Materials in Older Homes
Many of our customers have observed lower air quality in their homes due to the age of the home and the building and ventilation material used when it was built. Our expert technicians ensure your home’s air is kept clean and high quality.
Consider an indoor air quality test to ensure your home has clean air.
Heating Your Home is Less Expensive than the Michigan Average
While cooling is more expensive than the Michigan average, heating is less expensive. Many people in Clinton Township can save money during the winter months to put towards their HVAC bills in the summer months.
To ensure their homes stay energy efficient in the winter, many choose to have annual heating maintenance performed on their home.
The Higher Wind Speeds in Clinton Township Put Homes at Risk for Debris Accumulation
Winds carry debris that may clog or damage coils, fans, and other outdoor HVAC components. We recommend regular cleaning and maintenance to ensure the system operates efficiently. This alone has the potential to save you a good percentage of your HVAC bill every year.
Many people have their systems thoroughly cleaned with our AC maintenance services.
HVAC Systems Should Be Installed Keeping the Wind in Mind
When installing a new HVAC system, you should keep in mind that the placement of the system is important to avoid direct wind exposure. Not doing so could result in more debris accumulation and a less efficient system. Our technicians choose a place on the leeward side of your home or help in installing a proactive barrier for the home.
Residents of Clinton Township who choose to have one of our professional HVAC technicians install their new HVAC system save thousands throughout a system’s life.
