Prestigious award announced by the U.S. Department of Energy
ABC Home & Commercial Services in Austin has been providing our valued customers with HVAC repairs and a diverse selection of other services since 1949, and we’re pleased to be one of the recipients of the 2013 Century Club Award. This award is indicative of our dedication to providing our clients with the absolute best eco-friendly options. We believe that educating our customers about Energy Star-rated AC products is a critical aspect of enabling them to save money and reduce their negative impact on the environment.
What Is the Century Club Award?
The Century Club Award is intended to honor businesses that meet specific criteria established by the U.S. Department of Energy, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, and the Home Performance with Energy Star Program. In order to qualify for this award, ABC Austin needed to be able to demonstrate that we had improved the energy efficiency of more than 100 homes within a one-year time period. Essentially, this means that we helped our customers determine how to reduce their monthly energy bills, and we also installed the necessary HVAC products in their homes to make a positive difference.
Why Is This Important?
Switching to Energy Star products and correcting issues such as improper insulation can dramatically reduce the amount of energy needed to keep the temperature of your home at a comfortable level. This can make a huge difference for your budget, especially when you consider the fact that Austin Energy uses a tiered pricing program that penalizes people for using a higher amount of electricity. As an added bonus, Austin Energy offers rebates and loans for local homeowners and businesses that decide to take steps to improve the efficiency of their property. In other words, it’s possible in some instances to receive a rebate that will pay for part of the new Energy Star-rated HVAC system that we install.
What Does the Future Hold?
We’re committed to continuing to provide each of our clients with the opportunity to improve the efficiency of their home. We truly believe that this is in everyone’s best interests, and we’re looking forward to being eligible for additional Century Club awards in the future.
