• Insulate the hot water pipes coming from your water heater.
• Set the thermostat to 120 degrees F or less for normal use.
• If the side of the water heater is hot, install an insulation blanket. Make sure to use the appropriate type for your heater and to follow the manufacturers’ installation instructions carefully.

More tips to lower your heating bill

• Insulate your attic, walls, ceilings and floors to prevent heat loss.
• Take advantage of passive solar energy by opening drapes during the day to capture the sun’s warmth then closing them at night to prevent heat loss through windows.
• Keep fireplace dampers shut until you prepare to light a fire. An open damper in a 48” fireplace can let as much as 8% of your home’s heat escape through the chimney.
• Avoid heating unused areas by closing off unused rooms and shutting off heat vents.
• Consider installing storm windows and doors. Quality windows can result in cost savings of as much as 15% per year.

To help lower your heating bill follow these tips:

• Set your thermostat to 70 degrees or lower during the day.
• Lower the temperature at night or when you are not at home. For every one degree you set your thermostat back you save 1-3% on your annual heating costs.
• Consider installing a humidifier. Humid air feels warmer than dry air and increasing the humidity in your home will help you resist winter colds and moisturizes dry skin.
• Install an automatic setback thermostat that can be programmed to turn the temperature up and down at preset times.
