Why Your Heating Bill Is High — And How

Our HVAC Services Can Fix It.

If your heating bill has suddenly jumped — even though your usage hasn’t — the issue is likely your HVAC system. In Wylie, Sachse, and surrounding North Texas, older systems, clogged filters, and leaky ductwork are some of the most common reasons energy costs skyrocket. Here’s what could be driving your bill up and how professional HVAC service can help.

Top HVAC Reasons Your Energy Bills Are Rising

1. Dirty Filters Reduce Efficiency

Clogged filters force your furnace or heat pump to work harder, using more energy and delivering less heat.
Fix it: Replace filters every 30–60 days, especially during winter.

2. Lack of HVAC Maintenance

If your system hasn’t been serviced in the last year, dust buildup,

worn parts, and airflow restrictions could be lowering efficiency by 10–25%.
Solution: A profe

ssional HVAC tune-up improves performance, prevents breakdowns, and lowers monthly energy costs.

3. Leaky or Uninsulated Ductwork

In many Wylie and Sachse homes, duct leaks cause 20–30% of heated air to escapebefore it even reaches the rooms.

Fix it: HVAC pros can seal and pressure-test your duct system for better airflow and comfort.

4. Old or Inefficient Heating System

If your system is 12–15+ years old, it may be burning more energy than it should — even if it “still works.”
Upgrade option: High-efficiency furnaces (90%+ AFUE) can cut energy bills by up to 40%.

5. Thermostat Errors or Poor Placement

Improperly placed or outdated thermostats can cause your system to heat when it’s not needed.
Fix it: Smart thermostats offer better temperature control and can help lower heating costs by 10–15%.
