Today's Energy Insight

It's Novemberrrrrrrrrrrrr!



Now that it has turned chillier, here are some helpful tips for being more energy efficient during the heating season:

  • Clear the clutter from furnace vents and registers.
  • Close drapes and blinds after the sun goes down (which is way too early right now!)
  • Make sure appliances and electronics (those that emit heat) are not near thermostats.
  • Limit your use of portable heaters so you don't freeze out your coworker (space heaters wreak havoc on the zone heating of schools and offices!)
  • Dress for the weather, add a layer (or three) or lap blanket.
  • If your arms are full, consider not using the auto door opener, which keeps the door open longer allowing the cold air in and the warm air to escape!
