Here are some energy saving to help get you started:

  • Install a programmable setback thermostat to control heating costs without sacrificing comfort.  Lower the temperature setting at night and when you are not at home.
  • Check you furnace filter frequently and replace or clean it as needed
  • Add a humidifier-moist air feels warmer.
  • Adjust the register openings-remember heat rises, so you may want to partially close upstairs registers.
  • Keep window coverings open on sunny days to let in the sun's warmth.  Close them to insulate against colder air at night.
  • Use kitchen, bath and other ventilating fans sparingly in cold weather.  In just one hour, these fans can blow away a houseful of warm  air.
