The holiday season is almost here, and you’ve probably been busy with gift-shopping for the last few weeks. Now that you’ve found the perfect presents, it’s time to focus on your home. Cleaning and last-minute decorating are on the list, but we think focusing on comfort and energy efficiency should also be a priority.
Making a few changes to your home can create major change in your monthly bills. Sealing up air leaks is one way to reduce your bills and stay more comfortable throughout the year
It’s time to reassess the way you use energy for heating and cooling your home. Temperatures will drop quickly sooner than you know it, and you’ll notice a steady spike in your monthly bills as time goes on. Your heating system may seem to be functioning okay, but small issues within the system and around your home can have a major effect on your bills.
Think about what your bills were like in the middle of winter last year. In our area, heating costs can run quite high. And many of our habits and the way our homes work can make energy and fuel costs even higher.
It’s tough to save money in the summer. Not only do you spend more time going outside and having fun (we hope), but your home energy bills can also be rather high.
When temperatures are at their highest, it often feels like the only way to save money is to shut the air conditioner off. AC systems use a lot of energy. But sometimes, circumstances in a home contribute to bills that are much higher than they should be.
