We’re getting closer and closer to official heating season Kansas. Once you start running your heating system, you can expect your energy heating costs bill to rise, but there are a few things you can do to help alleviate some of those energy costs that come with heating your home.
– Turn your ceiling fans to run clockwise to pull the cool air up and push the risen warm air down
– Wear more clothing or cuddle up with a blanket
– Keep unused doors closed such as closet, pantry, and cabinet doors. We do not recommend closing doors that have air registers in them!
– Update your insulation
– Winterize windows by adding weather stripping, caulk, and thick, thermal curtains
– Use a humidifier to increase the humidity in the air which will make it feel warmer than it is
– Have your annual maintenance completed on your heating system
Now’s the time to start taking a look at places where drafts come into your home such as windows and doors, checking and adding insulation as needed, and giving us a call to have your annual furnace service completed! Give us a ring at 785-341-4193 and let our technicians take care of all of your heating system needs!
