Long Island Plumbing, Heating & Air Conditioning Company, Abstract Mechanical Offers Home Heating Tips on How to Cut Heating Cost this Winter

    FARMINGVILLE, NY, November 09, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Long Islanders spend thousands of dollars annually on heating the home. According to reliable sources, households spend over $4,000 annually on heating the home. Long Island Plumbing, Heating & Air Conditioning Company, Abstract Mechanical offers residents a variety of helpful tips and effective solutions on saving money on heating the home.

Home heating experts at Abstract Mechanical advises residents to carefully evaluate their home heating equipment. This helps in determining whether or not their heating equipment is in good working condition.

It is also important to check the home for drafts. Those who live in a drafty home tend to pay a lot more in heating the home than residents with well ventilated homes.

The next step in reducing heating costs is to consult a professional. A heating technician will determine if it is time for the furnace filter to be replaced. Residents should also consider finding out their general energy consumption status. A home heating expert can help figure out which areas within a home are losing heat.

Before the freezing temperatures hit the Island, residents should place weather stripping around all windows and doors. The home should be thoroughly inspected to determine exactly where the leaks are located.

For residents who own an older heating system, Abstract Mechanical recommends taking full advantage of the 2009 Tax Credit. Homeowners who invest in a new energy efficient HVAC system can still receive up to $1500 Tax Credit on a new certified energy efficient heating system.

Home heating experts also recommend decreasing the amount of time spent in the shower. They also suggest lowering the temperature within the home and use extra blankets when going to bed. People should also wear thicker clothing such as sweaters during the day. Residents should also remember to adjust the heating vents within all rooms that are not in use.

To save even more money on home heating costs, households should place draperies and curtains around all windows to help reserve heat. According to Abstract Mechanical, home owners can save thousands of dollars on home heating and air conditioning costs annually just by utilizing simple energy saving tips.
