Unexplainably high energy bills — Haarlem, Noord-Holland
A sudden spike in energy bills without a change in habits usually points to an inefficient HVAC system, poor insulation, or an electrical issue. Common culprits include a dirty furnace filter, refrigerant leak, faulty thermostat, aging water heater, or air leaks around windows and doors. An HVAC technician can perform an efficiency audit, clean or tune up your system, seal ductwork, and recommend upgrades that pay for themselves in lower bills.
