| THERMOSTAT
ADJUSTMENTS |
| |
Don't set the control higher than the desired temperature
to quickly heat your home; You could forget to turn the
dial down later and the rooms won't heat any faster.
Lower the
thermostat setting before you go to bed every night
or when no one is home.

| LOSING
HEAT |
| |
At night or on cloudy days close the drapes
over large windows and glass doors to form a barrier against
heat loss.
Keep the
damper in your fireplace or wood stove closed when
not in use.
Have appropriate
weather-stripping around joints and seams in windows
and doors.

| HEAT
VENTS / RADIATORS |
| |
Try not to allow furniture or drapes to
block heating vents or radiators. This will allow the
heat to circulate more freely throughout the room.
If there are
rooms that you seldom or never use, close the vents
in these rooms and shut the doors that lead from
these rooms to the occupied portions of your home.

| MAINTENANCE |
| |
Repair or replace leaky hot water faucets.
Keep your heating
system clean; it will operate at peak efficiency
only when it is free of lint or dirt.

| YOUR
BOILER |
| |
Avoid shutting off your boiler
completely. This will help prevent corrosion and water
leaks which can reduce your boiler's efficiency and lead
to premature repairs. |
