As winter nears, temperatures are dropping lower and lower, meaning you’ll be increasingly relying on your home’s heating system to keep you comfortable. With your heat being on so often, you might cringe when your energy bill comes due. But by taking some simple precautions, you can keep more money in your pocket, while still staying nice and warm. One important measure is to get seasonal heating system maintenance. At Air Controls, our experienced HVAC technicians can complete heating system maintenance that will improve your heating system’s efficiency and help to keep your bills lower.
Ways to Lower Your Heating Expenses
Furnace filters should be replaced at least every three months. Thin filters (under 2”) tend to need replacement a little more often than this. If your furnace filter doesn’t get regularly replaced, then it’s liable to become clogged. This will make your heating system work harder, causing your energy bill to increase.
It’s worth installing a programmable thermostat if you don’t already have one. With a programmable thermostat, it’ll be easy for you to create a heating schedule that aligns with your daily routine. This will help to ensure that you’re not warming up your house when there’s nobody home. And when programming your thermostat, you can keep your heat bill lower by setting it at a temperature that will keep you warm rather than hot.
It’s worth taking a couple of other precautions to ensure that you’re heating your home efficiently. For one, by covering your windows at night, you can prevent heat being lost through them. Also, it’s worth checking over your ductwork to make sure it isn’t leaking at all. If there are leaks in your ductwork, then heated air is liable to escape before it gets the chance to warm your living spaces.
