Why Is HVAC
The Source of
Your Household's
Energy Usage?
Cooking a dinner, using a computer, watching TV,
heating/ cooling a house – all these household activities
require energy. But according to Energy Star, a federal
program that promotes energy efficiency, about half of what
the average household spends on energy bills goes toward
heating and cooling. Upgrading your old HVAC unit to an
energy-efficient Bryant system can cut utility costs by
about 20% (or $200 annually on average).

Environmentally sound, chlorine-free Puron® Refrigerant is the refrigerant of
the future. Developed to replace R-22 refrigerant, Puron Refrigerant is not
only environmentally sound, but is also more efficient. In fact, Bryant was
among the first heating and cooling manufacturers to use a non-ozone-depleting
refrigerant, such as Puron Refrigerant.
