Diamond Certified Expert Contributor, Raul Galvez: When people buy a car, they usually do regular maintenance. They are on top of the maintenance, you know, oil change, coolant, tire pressure, cleaning, and all those kind of things. But having an heating and air conditioning in a house, they never bother to even look at it. And they think that those units is supposed to run forever without any type of maintenance.

Running the air conditioning an extra hour a day, it can cost you between $0 to $150; depends on the house and your electrical bill.
