Heating Efficiency

It's common to blame holiday lighting for an increase in your electric bill during the winter months, but many other factors, including heating your home, affect your monthly bill. Here are some tips to keep energy use down during the heating season:

Carefully monitor your energy use as you spend more time at home around the holidays and turn off electronics that are not being used.
Use an electric heat pump to warm your home when it is as cold as 40º outside. You'll extend the life of your gas furnace and save on gas heating expenses.
Insulate your duct work. Even ducts that do not appear to be leaking are conducting conditioned air and wasting energy. Insulating your duct work can help you save 20-30% on heating and cooling expenses.
More cooking and baking around the holidays can increase your electric bill. Use smaller appliances whenever possible. Use small pots on small burners and avoid wasting energy by frequently opening the oven to check your baked goods.
In the winter, lighting use increases due to shorter daylight hours. Leaving unnecessary lights on increases energy costs.
On sunny days, open blinds and drapes and let the sun warm your rooms. At night, close blinds and drapes to keep the heat in.
Hang heavier clothing to dry to avoid longer drying cycles.
