Save money on energy - prepare your heating and cooling system for winter
American Standard Heating & Air Conditioning offers the following tips for winter home readiness: Program your thermostat. Resetting the temperature from a constant 72 degrees to 65 degrees for eight hours a day (perhaps during the day while you and your family are less likely to be home) can cut your heating bill by up to 10 percent, according to energy.gov. Upgrade to newer technology. If your furnace is more than 10 years old, consider replacing it with a more energy- efficient model. Clean or replace filters. A dirty furnace filter can slow down the air flow in your heating system and make it work harder than necessary.
