Learn more: Central HVAC System Look for higher Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER) ratings for the most efficient HVAC system. Proper insulation of your house, HVAC maintenance and temperature settings also affect its efficiency. F B Energy Star Refrigerator Keep it dust-free and airtight; set the fresh food compartment temp at and freezer at 0-5. A B C C Whole House Fan A great way to keep the house cool and costs about 1/10th of a central air conditioner to operate. D D Energy Star Room Air Conditioner Make sure you get a room air conditioner with the right capacity for the size of the room. Otherwise you could be wasting energy. E G I E Energy Efficient Windows Windows with the lowest U-Factor and SHGC are the most efficient. Ratings can be found on the affixed NFRC label(s).
