Heating Tips to Help Save Money

As temperatures start to drop and the vibrant foliage transforms our neighborhoods, it’s the perfect time to cozy up your home for the fall season. It’s important to keep your space warm and inviting, and here are some easy heating, air conditioning and ventilation (HVAC) tips to help you stay comfortable as the leaves change colors.
Reverse your ceiling fans
Did you know that ceiling fans can help in the winter, too? By reversing the direction of your ceiling fan blades to clockwise, you can gently push warm air down from the ceiling into the living space. This simple adjustment can improve circulation and make your rooms feel warmer without increasing your heating costs. 
Change your filters
Regular heating maintenance is crucial for ensuring your system operates smoothly throughout the season. The most important thing you can do as a homeowner is to change your air filters to ensure proper air flow. 
Harness the heat with heat pumps
One of the most efficient ways to heat your home is with a cold-climate heat pump. Start by choosing a certified Mass Save heat pump installer who specializes in installing these energy-efficient systems that not only keep your home warm but also save you money on energy bills. Heat pumps work by transferring heat rather than generating it, making them incredibly efficient even in chilly Massachusetts winters. 
Ensure unobstructed air flow
Check that your radiators and heating vents are not blocked by furniture, drapes or other objects. Blocked air flow can reduce the efficiency of your heating system and prevent rooms from reaching their desired temperature. Keeping these areas clear allows for optimal heat distribution throughout your home.
Seal in the warmth
Before the cold really sets in, take some time to inspect your windows and doors for drafts. Simple weather stripping or caulking can make a big difference in keeping warm air inside where it belongs. Mass Save also offers assistance with air sealing and insulation at very low costs.
