Title: 5 Strategies for Reducing Your Heating and Cooling Bills

Author: Andrew Seltz

Article:
One of the single biggest monthly expenses you will face is the
cost of heating and cooling your home.

As the costs of heating oil and electricity continue to rise, it
becomes vital that you get the maximum heating and cooling
result for your money. There are a number of things you can do
to improve the energy efficiency of the heating and cooling
systems in your home.

The here are the top 5 strategies for reducing your heating and
cooling bills:

CHECK YOUR SEALS - Air leaks in your home rob you of heating and
cooling dollars. You pay to heat or cool your home only to have
drafty windows and walls blow it all away. Sealing the cracks
and crevices around doors, windows, and electrical outlets will
dramatically reduce the energy lost to drafts and lower your
energy bills.

MAX OUT YOUR INSULATION - One of the biggest wastes of heat in
your home is poor attic insulation. Make sure you have the
appropriate amount of insulation in your attic to prevent heat
loss through the ceiling.

UNCOVER AIR VENTS - In many homes with forced air heating and
cooling systems the vents (sometimes called registers) are
located on the floor. If these vents are blocked by furniture or
draperies, the air will not flow properly through the house. The
result is that your heating and cooling systems will not operate
at their highest efficiency.

SERVICE YOUR HEATING AND COOLING SYSTEM - Nobody likes to pay
for service calls when their heating and cooling system is
working, but having a technition check your system annually can
dramatically reduce your energy bills. The service technition
will make sure that your system is working at peak efficiency
and help identify problems before they become huge expenses.

INSTALL CEILING FANS - In the winter the warm air in you home
can be trapped at the ceiling leaving you cold (or forcing you
to turn up the thermostat to get the lower part of the room
heated.) A ceiling fan can help mix the air and keep the overall
temperature in the room more comfortable year round.

These simple, and often inexpensive, changes can dramatically
reduce the cost of heating and cooling your home. Some require
nothing more than a quick trip to your local home center and an
afternoon of labor.
