More Winter Energy Saving Tips
1. Don’t let your energy budget go up in smoke.
Don’t let your energy budget go up in smoke. Keep the damper closed when your fireplace is not in use. If you love a crackling fire consider upgrading to a more energy-efficient EPA-rated fireplace insert.
2. Upgrade to a programmable thermostat.
Upgrade to a programmable thermostat. A programmable thermostat can help eliminate unnecessary guesswork. Reducing the temperature by only a few degrees will result in savings on your energy bill.
3. Avoid using exhaust fans.
Avoid using exhaust fans. Oven hoods and bathroom fans can lead to heat loss in the winter. Use them sparingly to avoid increased energy bills.
4. Upgrade your windows and sliding doors.
Upgrade your windows and sliding doors. Switching to energy-efficient windows and doors if your budget allows it can reduce heat loss in the winter.
5. Ceiling fans can make a difference.
Ceiling fans can make a difference. Ceiling fan blades that run in a clockwise position will push warmer ceiling air downward toward your living space.
