Why a newsletter about air conditioning? Well, not only is it our biggest source of comfort during the summer (or year-round comfort for those of us in the south), but it is also one our biggest expenditures when it comes to the home. Air conditioners are the single largest system in a home and they can be responsible for up to 70% of your electric bill during the hot summer months.

The reduction of energy consumption is not only a national concern, but one that hits home and directly affects your pocket book. Therefore, we wanted to discuss ways to reduce air conditioning related energy consumption, save you money and increase your comfort in a fun and educational manner through this newsletter.

The A/C Patriot Newsletter is excited to be involved with Gary Parr's On the Air radio show. Gary has over 25 years of heating and air conditioning experience and decided to launch a radio show intended to help educate home owners on air conditioning. The interactive call-in show gives you a chance to gain valuable, free advice, answer your questions and help solve any issues you may be facing.

Each newsletter will contain a snippet from Gary's show. In addition, exclusively for the readers of the A/C Patriot Newsletter, Gary has agreed to read and answer questions live, on the air. If Gary reads your question, you will receive a $25 discount on select product installations. So, if you want a second opinion, a chance to participate on the radio, or just save some money, simply email us your air conditioning question today!

Lastly, we want your opinion! Each newsletter will take a quick poll on a topic. The results from the poll will be posted on the website and shared with the world. Hopefully a/c contractors will take note so they can better serve you in the future.

Next Issue - How an Air Conditioner Works
In our next issue we will get to heart of it and discuss how an air conditioner actually works in a way that a two year old would understand. Have a great weekend!
