Winter will be back before we know it, but as one of my friends said last week, “has it really left. ” She was wondering if she needed to turn on her furnace one day just last week when the wind chill seemed to be in the upper 30s.  With the higher heating bills that we all have to contend  with I believe she choosed to just put on another sweater.

However, this winter there are five things that we can consider to help lower our heating bills this winter.

• Get a check up for your furnace. It is useful to fix something before it breaks by doing preventative not corrective maintenance.
• Change filiters.  A clean filter circulates air better and improve your indoor air quality
• Reduce the temperature on your thermostat to 68; it can save as much as $300 on your heating bills.
• Install insulation in your attic.  It is recommended to use R value of 49, and it needs to be 19 inches deep.
• Invest in an energy efficient furnace.

If you want to save money on your heating bill this winter, consider the above recommendations; however, if you are considering replacing your furnace or need insulation.  Budget for the cost before pulling out a credit card.
