- Install a programmable thermostat to automatically reduce heating and cooling in your home when you don’t need as much.
- Change air filters frequently. A dirty filter wastes energy by preventing airflow. Check them every month, and replace them if they look dirty. At a minimum, they should be changed every three months.
- Upgrade heating equipment to more efficient models when possible. For example:
- Natural Gas Furnace – If you have a natural gas furnace that is more than 15 years old, it may be time to upgrade to a more efficient model. A new natural gas furnace could save you up to 20% in operating costs.
- Natural Gas Water Heater – Water heating can account for 15% to 25% of a home’s energy use. If your natural gas hot water heater is more than 10 years old, you may want to consider replacing it with a more efficient model.
