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.
If it’s been going on for a long time, you might just start to think it’s normal for certain rooms of your home to be draft or to feel cooler or warmer than others. However, you should be concerned about this issue for more reasons than one.
In our last blog post, How a Home Energy Audit Can Help Your Home This Winter, Part 1, we took a look at what a home energy audit is and the different kinds of actions our Boehmer Heating & Cooling pros take to assess how much energy you have been using, and what kind of shape your appliances and home systems are in.
