8 Tips To Keep Energy Costs Down

Real Estate October 17, 2021

Making some simple changes can make some significant changes to your home heating or cooling bills. Visit PSEG's website for a Home Energy Analyzer.

1. Insulate!

Take note of drafts. Weather stripping, insulator kits, and window shrink film all help keep the cold/heat out.

2. Change your filters

Dirty filters are detrimental to air quality and energy efficiency.

3. Decorate with efficiency in mind

Pick curtains and blinds that will insulate windows during the winter and block out hot heat during the summer.

4. Don't let your money go up with the smoke

A defective damper can mean that your home's heated or conditioned air is going right up the chimney.

5. Keep it in or let it out- heat that is!

Leave your oven open or cracked after cooking to allow heat to escape into your kitchen.

6. Ceiling Fans

During cooler months, set your fans on reverse so they turn clockwise, pushing warmer air down.

7. Smart Thermostat (or at least Programmable)

Helps save costs by setting temperature when sleeping or away.

8. Dress appropriately

Bundle up for cooler weather and wear lighter clothes during warmer weather.
