Energy-Saving Thermostat Settings During Winter

Energy-Saving Thermostat Settings During Winter

The winter is the coldest season, and it can be harsh dealing with the freezing temperature. Equipping your house with heating appliances like furnaces, boilers, fireplaces, humidifiers, and air cleaners helps you keep warm. Thermostats help to regulate your indoor temperature and maintain it at the desired level.

Investing in a modern programmable thermostat can help you stay warm during the winter during winter and save on energy costs. You can set your thermostat temperature to sixty-eight (68) degrees Fahrenheit. This temperature is an ideal room temperature when you are at home during the day. Lowering your thermostat temperature by around ten (10) to fifteen (15) degrees when you sleep may help cut your energy bills.

5 Tips on Energy Saving

There are simple ways that enhance Heating during the cold seasons. Some may not only warm and heat your house but also save on costs. Here are five energy-saving tips you may consider during winter:
 • Letting the sun heat your house naturally during the day and closing the curtains during the night to trap and maintain the heat inside.
 • Keep the air circulating by turning your ceiling fan to rotate counterclockwise.
 • Stay warm with clothes, shawls, and blankets.
 • Use space heaters.
 • Weatherstripping moving parts in your house, for instance, around doors and window sashes to eliminate air leaks.

Other Energy-Control Resources

You may also opt to use other energy control resources during this cold season like the use of fossil fuels, rugs on tiled and hardwood floors, and power outlets in case you tend to forget unplugging unused devices. You can use led light bulbs for decoration and lighting instead of incandescent or Compact Florescent Lamps, for they use 75% less energy and last longer.

FAQ

  • What is a mini-split?

    By definition, and simply put, a “Split System” is a heating and air conditioning system which has two main components, the indoor unit and outdoor unit. In short, the indoor unit absorbs heat energy in the cooling mode, and the outdoor unit rejects the very heat absorbed by the indoor unit. And the cycle is repeated until the set temperature is met. Although the indoor and outdoor units are located in physically different, hence “split” locations, they are connected and operate as, one system; continuously circulating refrigerant liquid and vapor by means of interconnecting, dehydrated copper refrigerant lines, commonly referred to as a “Line Set”.

  • Water is Leaking on my Furnace

    Water falling on to the furnace can harm your heating unit by affecting the control boards and other components enclosed in the furnace. There can be many causes to the water overflow, but the most common cases in the summer is the ice build up inside the evaporator coil due to low refrigerant level. Water build up can also be due to the evaporator coil having a crack on the base, if this is the case contact us by booking an appointment or call us today to have a technician come have a look at your unit and repair this issue before it causes excessive damage.  

  • Most common Boiler Issues

    - Boiler fails to ignite
    - Low pressure
    - Strange Noises

    - Cold Radiators
    - Boiler leaking or dripping
