At 50% of your energy bill, heating is the single largest use of energy in most homes. You
can take measures to improve your heating and control systems, and reduce heat loss so less
heating is required. Heating System
ThermostatsBy setting the thermostat back when you are not home or overnight, you can save 5 to 10% on
your annual energy bill, depending on your climate and the degree/duration of setback. Recommended thermostat settings: By automatically raising and lowering temperatures to preset levels, programmable
thermostats offer convenience, comfort and energy savings. If you have another type of
thermostat, consider replacing it with a programmable one. Remember to manually over-ride your programmable thermostat when you go away, or to turn it
down anytime you depart from the programmed schedule. Live in an apartment?Apartments are more sheltered due to common walls, so if you live in an apartment you could
set the thermostat as low as 10° C (50° F) if you go away, as long as there are no water pipes
in exterior walls that could be subject to freezing. Gas firelog or decorative fireplaces are not as efficient as your main heating system. If you don't use yours often, consider shutting off the pilot light, as it is costing you money to leave it on. |
