Game-Changing Heating Tips
Here are a few heating tips that you can try out this winter for your home heating needs.
1. Choose a Responsible Thermostat Setting
The first thing we want you to do is to choose a responsible thermostat setting for your home. Sometimes, people can shuffle in from cold temperatures, run right over to the thermostat, and choose a temperature that’s extra toasty. Extra toasty might look good on the thermostat display, but in reality, it’s probably way too high and it’s going to overwork your heater and have you sweating. Choose a mild setting in between 68 and 70-degrees and allow your thermostat to heat up instead.
2. Open Your Curtains and Blinds
Opening up your curtains and blinds during the height of the day allows the sunlight to slowly increase the internal temperature of your home. Any extra warmth counts during this time of year. Make sure you’re doing your part to help your home heat you.
3. Conserve Energy At Night
Even if you want to sleep with your heater on throughout the night, there’s no reason to sleep with it on full blast. We suggest keeping your thermostat temperature between 60 and 66-degrees during this time.
4. Schedule a Maintenance Appointment
Maintenance from professionals is the only way we suggest that you prepare your heater for winter. We can pinpoint any potential problems knock them out on the spot. Maintenance is something that we can help you with. Contact us to learn more about our maintenance program today.
5. Reverse the Flow of Your Ceiling Fans
Ceiling fans can be used during the winter season too. If you want to get yours involved, the first step is reversing the direction that the fan blades go. Once you reverse the direction they spin, the ceiling fan can be used to push the warm air collecting at your ceiling down into your living space.
6. Consider Your Home’s Humidity Level
If your home doesn’t have balanced humidity, then it isn’t going to be warm enough. This is why it’s worthwhile to invest in proper indoor air quality services for your home.
7. Invest in a High-Tech Thermostat
When was the last time you upgraded your home’s thermostat? If it’s been a while, then it’s time for you to upgrade now. New Wi-Fi and smart thermostat models are great because they can eliminate user error and even prompt more energy efficiency usage.
