Homeowners Can Perfect Their Residences' Temperatures with Three Easy Steps 

Perfecting the home's temperature is more than closing the windows and turning down the AC; it's about checking for drafts, installing Energy Star-certified windows, and contacting a central heating service member. 

A heater that doesn't work does more than create a chilly house; it can result in expensive utility bills and, eventually, expensive repairs. That doesn't even touch on the wasted energy factor. This season, homeowners can ensure that their heaters are working properly by considering the following measures. 

Check for Drafts 

The U.S. Department of Energy notes that eliminating drafts can save homeowners 10 percent to 20 percent on their monthly energy bills. But what exactly is a draft? Well, warm air rises, and cold air stays low. An example of a draft could be uneven room temperatures, cold pockets, and unusually warm areas. 

One can check for drafts by: 

  • Checking the windows: If a window isn't closed all the way, this could let cold air in and warm air out. Sometimes, a window may seem closed, but it may be poorly sealed.
  • Checking doorways: Sometimes, cold air can creep into a room from under the door. In this situation, homeowners might consider installing a door sweep, which will insulate the room. 
  • Checking cold spots around walls: Insulation broken down behind a wall can cause a room to feel hotter or colder than usual. 

If one can't find the reason for their home's draft, they should contact a heating contractor. They could fix the problem by caulking any openings, re-installing drywall, and checking the heater's efficiency. 

Install Energy Star-Grade Windows windows

It's true; not all windows are created equal. That's certainly the case for Energy Star's windows. These products are specially designed to limit how much energy a home uses while maintaining consistent indoor temperatures. 

It's worth noting that Energy Star isn't just another window manufacturing company. The U.S. government oversees it and abides by higher standards than most store-bought windows. 

Some benefits of Energy Star windows include: 

  • They're made with fiberglass frames, making them both durable and easy to clean.
  • Energy Star understands that each home comes with its own needs. So, it offers windows for different climates. Windows vary in clarity, thickness, and fillers. 
  • They meet the guideline implemented by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), meaning they optimize home heating and cooling. 

Installing an Energy Star window is best left to a professional. Parties interested in these windows should consider calling a heating company service professional.

Scheduling Annual Maintenance Visits contractor

A homeowner can maximize their home's heating and cooling efficiency by scheduling a visit with a certified HVAC professional. When looking for a reputable heating professional, a homeowner should look out for: 

  • Positive reviews
  • Experience
  • Suite of services
  • Scheduling options

As one can see, there are plenty of things homeowners can do to maximize their home's heating efficiency. However, there are times when matters are best left to a professional.
