Heating & Cooling Tips
A few simple tips can save you dollars...
-
Set
your thermostat as low as is comfortable. Keep the
temperature fairly constant, as frequent changes
will utilize more energy by causing unnecessary
cycling on and off. Setting back the temperature
at night, and during the day if no one is home,
is recommended.
-
Clean
or replace furnace filters once a month or as needed.
-
Flush
Steam boilers a least once a week, more often if
possible. This prevents failure of the low water
cut off which is a safety that prevents the boiler
from operating with out water.
-
Clean
warm-air registers, baseboard heaters, and radiators
as needed; make sure that they are not blocked by
furniture, carpeting, or drapes.
-
Keep
draperies and shades on south-facing windows open
during the heating season to allow sunlight to enter
your home; close them at night to reduce the chill
from cold windows.
-
Use
kitchen, bath, and other ventilating fans wisely.
Turn these fans off as soon as they are no longer
needed, In about 1 hour, these fans can pull out
a houseful of warmed or cooled air.
They can also pull dangerous combustion gasses into
the house in some situations.
-
Check
your ducts for leaks. First look for sections that
should be joined but have separated and then look
for obvious holes.
