1. If you spend $2000 a year on fuel consider replacing an older boiler (65% efficiency) with a 95% high efficiency boiler. This could save you up to $580 dollars a year!
2. The heating equipment in your home needs regular tune-ups just like your car. Having a professional clean and calibrate your boiler every year can typically save you 5-8% on your bill.
3. Radiant heat is not only more comfortable to your body but you can see savings of 10%-30% in most residences and up to 60% in shops, garages, and warehouses.
4. Check the furnace filter each month, and clean or replace it as needed. Dirty filters block airflow through your heating equipment, increasing your energy bill and shortening the equipment’s life.
5. Fans can suck all the heat out of the average house in little more than an hour. Minimize use of ventilation fans such as bathroom and kitchen hood fans during cold temps.
