Low-Cost and Big-Ticket Ways to Make Your Home More Energy-Efficient

Limit Space Heater Use

Electric and gas space heaters keep your feet nice and toasty in cooler weather, but they aren’t the most efficient way to heat your home. Many space heaters use 1,500 watts of energy to run and are considered to be a costly way to drain your energy bill. Be sure the model of your space heater is energy-efficient; consider layering clothing or investing in blankets instead of cranking up your thermostat.
