- Probably the simplest thing you can do is bundle up and dress warmly. This is some old school advice you were probably told as a kid but it makes a lot of sense! You can save 2 percent on your heating bill for every 1°C you lower your thermostat.
- Make sure your Vancouver furnace filter is clean and replace it if necessary. Having a clean filter will help your furnace to heat your home more efficiently.
- Plastic up windows and the entrance to your attic. It might look a little funny but its cheap and will help. Window kits are available at local retailers.
- Turn your heat down at night while in bed. Lowering the thermostat setting before bedtime reduces your energy bills without affecting your comfort.
- Close heating vents going to rooms not often used. Have a guest bedroom no one ever uses, why heat the room if your not going to be spending time in it?
- Put weather stripping around drafty doors and use silicone to seal up cracks around windows. The cost of improving the air-tightness of your Vancouver home with silicone is small compared with possible fuel savings and increased comfort.
