"Seems like coordinating multiple efficiency upgrades can amplify benefits more than tackling them individually."
Yeah, that's spot on. Did a roof replacement last summer for a homeowner who'd just upgraded their HVAC the year before, and we ended up joking about how they wished they'd timed it better. But even with the gap between projects, they said the combined improvements made a noticeable difference in comfort and bills. Guess it's like pizza toppings—great individually, but better together...and cheaper if you order them all at once.

Makes sense, but I wonder how much of the savings actually come from coordinating timing versus just the cumulative effect of upgrades. Did they mention if the HVAC efficiency improved noticeably after the roof was done? Curious about real-world experiences on this...

I had a homeowner once who replaced their roof after upgrading HVAC, and we were chatting about it afterward. They didn't track exact numbers, but they did say the AC seemed to run less often and cooled the house quicker after the new roof went on. Makes sense if you think about it—better insulation and reflective materials keep the heat out, so the HVAC doesn't have to work as hard. Probably not a huge saving right away, but over a few summers...it adds up.
