Why is My Heating Bill So High? Bartlett Heating and Air Has the Answer

The colder weather is here now and that means its time to turn on the furnace more often. This will often lead to higher energy bills but they don’t have to be through the roof! Bartlett Heating and Air has some tips to help keep the cost down without skimping on comfort. The first place you start is to get your furnace maintained each fall. This will give it a thorough cleaning and tune up. That means your furnace will be running as best as it can and will save you energy along the way. the next thing you can do is to make sure that you change your filters every month. Dirty and clogged filters fall apart in the furnace causing things to break. The dirty filter also restricts airflow and makes your furnace work harder to do its job in turn raising your energy bills. Keeping your filter clean each month will save you money and energy. You can also use your programmable thermostat in a smarter way. When no one is home during the day you can lower the temperature in the home to save energy and money. Your programmable thermostat can be set to turn the heat higher right before someone comes home so you will still be warm. You can also lower the heat at night to save money and energy. These are simple things you can do to save money on your energy bills. Call Bartlett Heating and Air today to schedule your furnace clean and check!
