Save Energy by Closing Supply Registers

Heat Runs

The basic idea behind this is: you have to close supply vents in the rooms which you don’t use and it will save you energy and money. .......


If you would like to read more, please use the “BuyNow” button below and you will gain an in instant access to the first chapter of my Energy Saving Edition book dedicated to the energy conservation issues!
In the chapter you will learn how to save energy by closing some of the supply registers in your house, how to add a heat run if you don’t have enough heat runs whether it a “Straight shot” or a “Jumper”.
The chapter has 9 pages and 12 pictures in it. Price of the chapter is only $2.50.


Okay, all of the sudden here in southeast Michigan the summer is in the full swing again and I got a great opportunity for one more time to check out how my energy saving system is working!

Theorists on some Forum websites such as, for example, HVAC - Talk.com were getting crazy while discussing these very simple techniques of improving efficiency of your heating system, but all their theoretical knowledge means nothing without practice!
Why
was it such a failure, the answer is very simple: they were too lazy to check it out in their homes!
However for years I have this system installed
in my house and I haven't had any problems to check it out one more time again!

During four days in a row, tirelessly, I was checking different layouts and found out that my Summer layout is the best one!

Why did it take that long to prove that actually my layout is working?
Well, when
  I came back from work every day it is already 4 pm and it took from 23 up to 50 minutes for every cycle to complete. My wife was cooking, and my son was running back and forth opening the doors into the garage or to the outside and eventually, I have discovered that my thermostat was not showing the right temperatures. So in order to resolve this issue I started to use my professional electronic thermometer. Nevertheless, no matter what I did my layout was better than any other.

In order to prove it I ran an AC in the four settings:

Original - This one was implemented when the HVAC system was designed. This layout originally was designed for AC mode and it's required minimal improvements on my part.

Winter - This kind of design is very common in the older houses and works great in the wintertime.
I have also improved it and it gives me that great saving which I just mentioned above.


Everything Open - This one is recommended by the HVAC - Talk gurus and at some point it was showing even worse results than the Winter's one!

Summer - This layout was designed by me to save some electricity and guess what it showed me the best results in comparison to the others!

In order to compare all these layouts I have used a stopwatch method. I believe that this method is the most reliable and easily comprehendible!

Of course, the Summer layout has its limitations. You can use it only during daytime hours or in the rooms, which are not currently in use, but no matter what energy saving is energy saving and I would recommend you to ask me first before you buy if my system would be actually working in your house. Please submit your questions on this page.

Also, during this testing period, I checked out the possibilities of improving temperatures differentials between rooms on the first and on the second floors. This one also is required an individual approach and I would recommend you to pay me first ($1.34) on this page if you are willing to discuss it with me.

As economic situation isn’t improving so far, every day more and more people are visiting this page! Many of them want to save some money on their heating and cooling bills, but do not know how. They have reasonable thoughts that if they would close a few heats and cold air returns they will save some money on their utility bills.
So here is a question - Are they right or wrong on this issue? So let’s take a close look at it.
The most obvious answer is – They are right! Because if you would heat or cool only part of your house your HVAC system will work less and you can save!

On the second thought the answer is – They are wrong! Because your equipment is designed to move a certain amount of air and it will fail prematurely if you starve it for air!

Then here is another question – Why is it working for me, why am I able to save about 20% on my utility bill but it doesn’t work for others? Because I have designed and built the entire system of the ductwork in my house by myself!
But what can you do to save on your utility bill and down the road do not destroy your equipment? – You have to make some important changes to your ductwork system!

If you go to this page you will read some comments where people stand on the both ends of this issue. Some of them for and some of them against it, but unfortunately all of them wrong because their advices based on presumption that system of ductwork is something that can’t be touched and changed. Believe me it can be changed and you can do it!

Hundreds and hundreds of people are buying my books and many of them aren’t the professional installers. The vast majority of them are DIY-rs who do not afraid to install the entire system to their new houses, finish their basements, replace their furnaces or do their kitchen remodeling! And even you are not one of them you always can hire an HVAC Contractor, which will do this job for you.

However, from my experience I know that you still have some doubts if this will work for you!
So let me make this process for you as smooth as possible. Let’s divide it into three steps:

First step:
Send me an email from this page and describe what kind of house and what kind of equipment do you have? Describe its location in your house; count how many heat runs and cold air returns you have and their locations. Is your basement finished or not and so on.
This step is free of charge and at the end I’ll tell you if you can improve your system of ductwork or not.

Second step:
For the price of only $1.34 (0.34 is a PayPal’s fee) I will explain WHAT should be done in order to save money on your heating/cooling bill.
After you pay $1.34, PayPal will send you to the page above where you can type your request and send it to me.

Third step:
If after my explanations you will purchase the chapters on this page ($4.43) where you can find HOW it should be done, I’ll refund your $1.34.
