Thermostat
In the summer, set the thermostat between 76 and 78 degrees when you are home. In the winter, set your thermostat at 68 degrees and lower it two or three degrees when you’re going to be gone for several hours.
Use a ceiling fan to regulate the “feels like” temperature in your home instead of adjusting your thermostat. Just remember to turn it off when you leave the room. A ceiling fan should rotate counterclockwise in the summer. Use the lowest speed and reverse the direction the blades turn to clockwise in the winter.
One of the easiest ways to save on your heating bill is to turn the thermostat down and throw an extra blanket on the bed at night, or bundle up with a cozy sweater and warm socks. A programmable thermostat can make it easy to keep your house at the recommended seasonal temperature when you’re at home, while automatically adjusting the thermostat to turn up or down a few degrees when you leave or go to sleep.Regardless of the season, the smaller the difference between the indoor and outdoor temperatures, the lower your heating and cooling costs will be.
