Grapevine FAQ

What thermostat setting actually saves the most money in summer?+

There's no single universal number, since comfort tolerance varies by household, but a consistent, moderate setting paired with ceiling fans for circulation tends to perform better on your bill than an aggressively low setting the system struggles to maintain.

Does closing vents in unused rooms save money?+

Not usually, and it can work against you. Most residential systems aren't designed to handle a significant number of closed vents, and doing so can increase static pressure and strain on the system rather than actually saving energy.

Is there anything specific to Grapevine homes I should know before calling?+

Nothing that changes the fundamentals, just let us know you're in Grapevine and what you're seeing, and we'll take it from there with the same honest diagnostic we bring to every call.
