- Make sure your interior and exterior walls are properly insulated. Add extra insulation where necessary.
- Check areas in the house where cold air can seep in and hot air can leak out as this can increase energy costs. Install caulking and weather-stripping where needed.
- Use a programmable thermostat so you can change the temperature in your house whenever you want.
- Check your furnace and water heater to make sure they're working efficiently.
- Make sure the gutters are clean with no leaves or debris to prevent ice dams that can cause water damage to your roof and walls.
- Turn off the water to your outside garden hose and drain the lines as this will prevent the water from freezing.
