This means that you should stay\non top of your heating to save yourself money. We want you to keep your heater\nas efficient as possible. That\u2019s why we\u2019re here to help. Stay on top of these\ntips. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What You Can Do<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are a handful of things you can try out in your home to\nhelp your heater efficiency. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;\nTurn On Your Ceiling Fan<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We know that turning on your ceiling fan when you\u2019re trying to\nstay warm seems counterintuitive. We understand how you might think this if you\u2019re\nof the mindset that your ceiling fan cools you off. Your ceiling fan can\u2019t\ngenerate cool air, the feeling of the breeze flowing over you is what cools\nyou. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the winter, you can actually reverse the flow of your\nceiling fan and use it to warm your room. Heat rises. This means that the heat\nflowing through your home can get caught near the ceiling. A ceiling fan can\nhelp you distribute the warm air throughout your home. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;\nMaintain Your Heater<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You should maintain your home\u2019s heater annually and ideally in the fall to prepare for winter. Heating is something that you need to maintain the quality of. You need to put the care of this system into a hand of a capable professional. We\u2019re the ones you can call. If you want to keep your heater maintained on a regular basis, you should inquire about our <a href=\"\/maintenance-program\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">maintenance plan<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;\nChange Your Filter<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This is maintenance that lies in the hands of the homeowner.\nMake sure that you\u2019re changing the filter that\u2019s responsible for keeping your\nheater clean at least once a season. You can get a filter that\u2019s right for your\nheater at your local hardware store or online. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;\nInsulate, Insulate, and Insulate Some More!<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you notice odd drafts in your home, you should definitely\ntake the time to insulate. You might need to beef up your insulation in your\nattic or even add on to your weatherstripping. We\u2019re here to help you figure it\nout. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;\nUpgrade Your Thermostat<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Would you like to have high quality heating that doesn\u2019t waste any energy? We\u2019re sure that you would like this, but we regret to inform you that this isn\u2019t going to be possible with your outdated thermostat. If you have one of those faceless, plastic thermostats with analog buttons, it\u2019s time to upgrade your model to something with at least a digital face.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019d recommend that you go the extra mile to upgrade your thermostat to a Wi-Fi or smart thermostat. These are the thermostats that are going to optimize your comfort and eliminate waste along the way. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><strong><a href=\"\/contact\/schedule-service\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\">Contact English Air Inc. for our heating services.
