Heating and air conditioning equipment can be the largest utility expense for a business. If your current system provides inadequate heating and cooling, it may be time for a new one. Air Conditioning Incentives can help offset those costs.

If you’re thinking of making your business more energy efficient by replacing your old air conditioning unit, Riverside Public Utilities offers great incentives when installing high-efficiency central air conditioning units and chiller systems. You will enjoy seeing daily energy savings and lower monthly electricity bills.

HVAC tips
• Regular maintenance of HVAC systems can greatly reduce operating costs and increase system longevity. At a minimum, regular maintenance should be performed before each cooling season starts.
• High-efficiency Energy Star-rated equipment uses a minimum of 10-15% less energy than standard equipment.
• Thermostats should be set to 78 degrees in the summer and 68 degrees in the winter. Every degree adjusted up or down can make a 1-2% difference in your heating and cooling costs.
