Cooler Weather Energy-Saving Tips
Seal Drafts
Windows and doors are often the culprits of air leaks. Don’t let your valuable heating fuel go to waste! Add caulk or weatherstripping to seal any leaks and prevent precious heat from escaping outdoors.
Let the Light In
Open south-facing curtains during the daytime to let the natural sunlight warm your living space. This way, your heating equipment won’t have to work as hard. After the sun sets, close the curtains to keep the evening chill out.
Install a Programmable Thermostat
Adding a programmable thermostat is another hands-free way to save energy. Simply program your thermostat to lower the temperature during times that you are out of the house or asleep. This will help conserve heating fuel.
Enroll in Automatic Delivery
A custom delivery schedule with automatic delivery translates into more efficient fill-ups, which can help you make the most of your winter season budget. You’ll enjoy total convenience and more balanced heating costs.
Use Fans to Your Advantage
Save heat by running your fan clockwise to push heated air back down toward your living space. This will cut back on your furnace or boiler service costs and propane bills by reusing already-heated air.
