    What should you do if you are cold in your house?

    • Put on a sweater

    • Put on some shorts

    • Put on a jacket

    • Put on a white beater

    Correct Answer
    A. Put on a sweater
    Explanation
    If you are feeling cold in your house, putting on a sweater is a suitable solution. Sweaters provide warmth and insulation, helping to keep your body heat trapped close to your skin. This can help you feel more comfortable and cozy in a cold environment.

    How many months do you wait to change your air filter?

    • 10 months

    • 30 months

    • 3 months

    • 4 months

    Correct Answer
    A. 3 months
    Explanation
    Air filters in HVAC systems should typically be changed every 3 months. This is because air filters become dirty and clogged over time, reducing their effectiveness in filtering out dust, allergens, and other particles from the air. Regularly changing the air filter ensures that the HVAC system operates efficiently, maintains good indoor air quality, and prolongs the lifespan of the equipment. Waiting longer than 3 months to change the air filter can lead to reduced airflow, increased energy consumption, and potential damage to the HVAC system.

    What percentage can you save by changing your thermostat 1 degree?

    • 3%

    • 10%

    • 5%

    • 15%

    Correct Answer
    A. 3%
    Explanation
    By changing your thermostat 1 degree, you can save 3% on your energy bill. This is because adjusting the thermostat by just a small amount can lead to significant energy savings over time. Lowering the temperature by 1 degree reduces the amount of energy needed to heat or cool your home, resulting in cost savings. While 3% may seem like a small percentage, it can add up over the long run and contribute to more energy-efficient and cost-effective heating and cooling practices.

    • 2-5 dollars

    • 10-20 dollars

    • 60-100

    Correct Answer
    A. 2-5 dollars
    Explanation
    By turning the thermostat down one degree in winter, you can save approximately 2-5 dollars each month. Lowering the temperature reduces the amount of energy needed to heat the house, resulting in lower energy bills. The exact amount saved may vary depending on factors such as the size of the house, insulation, and local climate.
