How To Reduce Your Gas Bill

There are a number of steps that can be taken to reduce your gas bill. Joels Heating and Cooling can help you with all of these steps.

Set your thermostat no higher than 68 degrees while you are at home and no higher than 60 degrees when you are not at home. A digital programer can adjust temperature automatically and is easily installed by a profesional company such as Joel's Heating and cooling. A digital programer can save you as much as 10% on your gas bill.

Have your furnace checked and cleaned annualy by a heating and cooling contractor such as Joel's Heating and Cooling. Having your furnace checked and cleaned ensures that it is running safely and effeciently. A furnace operating at peak effeciancy will definetly help reduce your gas bill.

Install a whole humidifier. Installing a whole humidifier will allow you to lower your thermostat and still feel very comfortable. The humidity created by the humidifier keeps the air moist which in turn prevents moisture from being evaporated from your skin. When moisture evaporates from your skin it cools you down. Have Joel's Heating and Cooling install a whole humidifier to help keep the air moist, help keep the furnace from drying out, and to help stop static electricity in your house.

Check your furnace air filter every month. A dirty air filter will waste energy and increase your gas bill. An even better solution than having to check your air filter every month is to have an air cleaner installed. An air cleaner will replace your furnaces 1 inch thick filter with a 10 inch thick filter and offer 99 percent effeciancy. An air cleaner will also help those who suffer from allergies by getting rid of dust, spores, bacteria, pllen, viruses, and smoke. Joel's Heating and Cooling has been installing air cleaners for over 10 years and can have one installed for you.
