Heating Savings Tips:

• Weatherstrip your windows and doorways. Add door sweeps beneath doors for added insulation.
• Check your furnace filter every month during the heating season and replace when it is dirty.
• Save on your heating costs by adding insulation to your uninsulated or inadequately insulated attic.
• Repair cracks or broken seams in forced-air heating ducts.
• Lowering your thermostat while you are not at home or at night while you sleep can save money. For every degree you lower your thermostat, you can save approximately 3% on your heating bill. Generally, lowering your thermostat by 5° will make an impact on your energy bill.
• Close your drapes or blinds at night to keep the heat inside your premises.
• During cold weather, seal all openings to cooling units (wall and window air conditioners and outside central air units) to keep the heat inside your premises.
• Don’t block heating outlets or return registers with furniture or other objects.
• Choose a high-efficiency model when shopping for a new furnace.

Weatherization

• Install weather-stripping around exterior doors and operable windows, and around doors between heated and unheated or cooled and uncooled spaces.
• Install door bottoms, thresholds, or door “shoes” to seal gaps beneath exterior doors and doors to unheated or uncooled spaces.
• Insulate exterior walls and floors, and insulate roof or ceiling spaces to R-19 standards or above wherever possible.
• Install window treatments where feasible, such as shade screens, shades, awnings, or overhangs.
• If exterior treatments are not feasible, consider interior window film, insulated drapes, valances and/or blinds, or removable insulation material.
• Caulk cracks and gaps around windows and doors, in the building foundation, and between different building materials.
• Repair roof leaks. Insulation will lose effectiveness when wet.
• Repair and maintain door and window weather-stripping to prevent water and moisture entry, causing doors and windows to warp and deteriorate.
• Consider permanently closing and sealing doors and windows NOT needed for building access or ventilation and that are NOT used as safety or fire exits.
• Keep doors between heated and unheated spaces and cooled and uncooled spaces closed, and install automatic door closers if needed.
