There is nothing better than enjoying the heat of the summer, especially after those chilly winter and rainy spring months. But the heat and humidity of summer can quickly leave you wondering how you can stay cool. Whether your home doesn’t have central air conditioning, or you like to use air conditioning sparingly, you’ll want to plan ahead with some proven tactics to help you stay cool in the summer.
The cost of making some of these changes can be offset with tax credits. Energy efficiency upgrades to your home may qualify for one of two federal income tax credits, depending on the type of improvements you make to your home.
