5 Tips to Save Energy This Fall
Use these top tips to get your home ready for the cold months ahead so you can spend time enjoying the season, not worrying about energy bills!
- Seal Drafts and Air Leaks: Air leaks in your home can be a cause of higher energy bills. Inspect windows and doors for drafts and air leaks. Add caulk or weatherstripping to seal them and prevent precious heat from escaping outdoors.
- Open the Curtains: Open south-facing curtains during the daytime to let the natural sunlight warm your living space. After the sun sets, close the curtains to keep the heat in and the evening air out.
- Install a Programmable Thermostat: A programmable thermostat can help you save energy throughout the year. Set it to automatically lower the temperature during times that you are out of the house or asleep.
- Consider an Upgrade: If your current furnace or boiler is over 15 years old, consider contacting your HVAC provider to upgrade to a high-efficiency model. High-efficiency heating systems operate more effectively and use fuel more efficiently.
