Money Saving Tips

Save MoneyInsulation - Be sure your home is adequately insulated. Adding insulation to attic areas is usually pretty easy. Other areas, such as outside walls, provide a more challenging project if extra insulation is needed.

Seals - Check the seals around windows, doors, electrical outlets or any other potential sources for escaping air. Seal these areas using a good quality caulk, and be sure to re-examine your handiwork every few years.

Weather Stripping - Inside your home, weather stripping around moving parts of windows and doors can help seal off potential areas of leakage or drafts.

Storm Systems - Storm doors and windows can provide additional energy savings by preventing air loss and by creating an insulating layer of air.

Programmable Thermostat - With a programmable thermostat, you can program winter temperature at 65º at night, then back to 72º during the day. This simple program can save up to 15% on heating bills. If you need your furnace professionally serviced or inspected, call Weather Master Heating and Air. We service and maintain all makes and models of air conditioners, furnaces and heat pumps.

Insulating Ductwork and Pipes - Insulating pipes and ducts that run through unheated space will result in a significant savings in your energy bill. Heat escapes from bare hot-water pipes causing the water sitting in those pipes to cool down between uses. This results in running extra water from the faucet to get hot water. Wrapping these pipes will save you money. Wrapping cold water lines won't save you energy dollars, but will eliminate dripping and sweating from condensation, avoiding water spots.
