Method 1 of 2: How to Reduce Heating Bills

1. 1 When you leave home, turn off all heaters, and turn them off at night. You can save 3% of the money you used to pay for heating by turning on the heating a little less often.
2. 2 Use a range hood when needed. Cooker hoods draw out heat. Use them only when necessary. Turn them off immediately after use.
3. 3 Cover the heater, or cover it with something when not in use.
4. 4 Make sure the heater is clean and the grate is not clogged.
5. 5 Turn on a ceiling fan, if available. The heat rises up, so the ceiling is always warmer than the floor. The fan will help to disperse the heat around the house.
6. 6 Use thick curtains to keep you warm. Don't open the window too often. Close the curtains.

1. 1 Seal and repair the holes in the window frames. Insulate windows and doors.
2. 2 Install special winter windows or use plastic window cases.
3. 3 Fill up holes and crevices under / above doors and doors.
4. 4 Change the filter in the fireplace.
5. 5 Add insulation to your walls or roof. Through them, warmth goes away all the time.
6. 6 Install a more modern fireplace or heater. It will help you keep up to 15% more heat in your home. Double windows are also a good idea.
