As the winter months bring colder temperatures, make sure your home is properly insulated. Caulking windows and doors will help you save energy and money. If you have exposed pipes, be sure to insulate those to prevent them from bursting as temperatures drop below freezing.Winter is also the prime time for illnesses such as colds and flu, so decrease indoor pollutants by cleaning and vacuuming dust from your vents.
Maintaining your thermostat is another important step to efficiency. Keep it set at the lowest possible temperature that will keep everyone comfortable (usually in the 68 to 72 degree range).
You may want to consider purchasing a programmable thermostat that will adjust your temps automatically. Visit my website if you would like to know what properties are selling for in your area.
