Do-It-Yourself Savings During the Fall
Take advantage of heat from the sun by opening window shades and curtains and close them at night to keep the warm air in your home.
Prep your heating vents by removing dust and pet hair to ensure heat easily flows through and remove any furniture or drapes that could be blocking air flow.
Your furnace has likely accumulated a lot of dust from being dormant in the summer, so replace your filter before you start heating your home.
Heat from your home can escape and cold air from outside can creep in through any spaces around your doors and windows. To prevent leaks, seal any openings around windows or doors with caulk or weather stripping.
