    Even though it doesn't stay that cold for too long in our area, nobody wants to feel the winter chill. Routine maintenance checks can also be done before the temperature drops so that small problems can be identified before they escalate into major issues. We hear the following complaints in the cold months. Not enough heat in the house, furnace not turning on, heater not heating up properly, heat pump not working properly, thermostat not working, hot air not blowing, strange smell coming from furnace, vents not blowing warm, utility bills too high.

    How can my home be heated more efficiently?

    A furnace replacement is the best but most costly solution. Modern furnaces that are high-efficiency can reduce your energy costs by 25%. A new furnace should be affordable in a short time, so the investment will likely pay off. As you can set your thermostat higher in the summer to get greater efficiency, in winter you can lower the temperature of your thermostat for a small portion of the day. This will help you save money on your electricity bill. Avoid blocking vents, just like in the summer. This will ensure that heat is distributed evenly throughout the house. Close vents in rooms you do not use very often to save energy. Even though it may seem counterintuitive to say, ceiling fans can heat your house in winter if they spin clockwise. Install ceiling fans to increase your energy efficiency in summer and winter. Last but not least, it is important to maintain your furnace annually in order to prevent potential problems from developing.
