Prepare For The Winter With These Seven Conservation Tips
As you get ready for the winter season by switching out your shorts for coats and sandals for boots, you can trust that F.C. Haab will make sure your home keeps you warm during those cold winter nights. Here are a few ways you can prepare your home for the approaching winter season.
7 Easy Ways to Prepare for Winter:
1. Upgrade Your Heating Equipment – Save up to 10-20% on your annual energy bills when you upgrade to a new, high-efficiency heating system.
2. Get a Tune-Up – Regular tune-ups can reduce energy costs by up to 10 % and fix small problems that could have otherwise caused a system failure in the middle of winter.
3. Install A Programmable Thermostat – You can reduce energy waste and save money on your annual energy bill by scheduling your thermostat to lower the temperature before bedtime or when nobody is home.
4. Wrap Your Pipes – This helps to prevent heat loss and frozen pipes during the cold season.
5. Invest in a Humidification System – You can avoid painful, cracked skin and worsened respiratory issues caused by dry air.
6. Caulk Your Windows – Filling in the gaps on your window seal is an easy, inexpensive way to keep warm air from escaping your home.
7. Eliminate Cold Spots – instead of using dangerous space heaters to compensate for the cold spots in your home, call F.C. Haab and we’ll check your system for any issues.
You get peace of mind knowing that you and your home will be prepared for the winter season by following the tips listed above. For any services you need, call us at (610) 688-6500.
