How many times have your received outrageous utility bills because your air conditioner or furnace had been running all day while you were away at work? Or how often do you walk into a room only to feel like you need to strip off a layer of clothing because it's too hot or throw a sweater on because it's too cool?

Out-of-date thermostats and inefficient heaters and air conditioners can radically affect your comfort level in your home and the money in your pocket book!

Do any of these situations arise in your home? If so, it may be a sign that you have indoor air quality problems.

• You have a multi-level or split-level floor plan and only one or two thermostats.


• Your upstairs is "an inferno" in the summer and your downstairs is "an ice box" in the winter.


• You use expensive, noisy, and potentially dangerous portable heaters and/or fans to stay comfortable in specific areas of your home.


• You have a finished basement, attic, or new addition that is often too hot or cold to enjoy.


• The sun affects one part of your home during the summer or winter making either that area or the rest of the house unbearable.


• You have rooms with cathedral ceilings or a fireplace.


• You argue about the thermostat setting.
