By sealing air leaks in a home, an average household can also cut 10% of its winter heating bills. Use caulk to seal any cracks or small openings on non-moving surfaces, such as where window frames meet the house structure. Check weatherstripping in exterior doorframes and replace any that is deteriorated or cracked. Inspect utility cut-throughs for pipes (plumping penetrations), gaps around chimneys and recessed lights in insulated ceilings, and unfinished spaces behind cupboards and closets. You can buy material that expands to fill the gaps and keep air from flowing through. You may think these are small and insignificant but once you add them all up throughout your home, they have a major impact on the overall efficiency of your home.
You can also consider relocating your thermostat. Often times we see a thermostat installed in a central location near a kitchen. While this location can be ideal for most days, the bedrooms can stay cooler and cause you to turn up your temperatures at night. Consider a portable thermostat that will allow you to turn your system on or off from a central thermostat and from a portable model. Finally, have your furnace checked before winter gets into full swing. Saving money on your winter heating bills can come from adjusting gas pressures. You can also save on your winter heating bills by installing new air filters. This will allow your furnace to breathe better and increase airflow throughout your system. One of our professionals at Boerne Air Conditioning Experts can also offer additional recommendations that will increase your efficiency throughout the winter.
