Upgrading your current thermostat to a more modern, programmable option allows for more control and efficiency. Your monthly savings may increase even higher if you switch to a WIFI thermostat that allows you to control the temperature in your home from anywhere remotely.<\/li>\n<li><strong>HVAC wear and tear<\/strong> &#8211; On average, a traditional HVAC unit should be replaced completely every 10-15 years. If your current <a href=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/quote-request.php\">HVAC system<\/a> is functioning past its recommended lifespan, you may start to notice higher heating bills. Additionally, if your current system is still within an acceptable age range, but in a state of disrepair, high heating bills are sure to follow.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Air leaks and poor insulation<\/strong> &#8211; High heating bills can often be the result of a poorly insulated home. If you have an older home, you might be losing air through the doors, windows, or any crack in your inner and outer walls. If this issue persists, you may want to consider conducting a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/home-energy-audit-faqs\/\">home energy audit<\/a> on your home.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Dirty air filters<\/strong> &#8211; Any unnecessary strain on your current <a href=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/quote-request.php\">HVAC system<\/a> can contribute to high heating bills in the winter months. Clogged, dirty, or otherwise damaged air filters are not only the most common, but also the easiest remedied cause of an overworked HVAC. Taking the step to replace your air filters regularly is smart, affordable, and a surefire way to lower those daunting high heating bills.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Schedule a walk through<\/strong> &#8211; There is only so much you can observe with an untrained eye. If your family&rsquo;s warmth and your pocket book are both high priority to you, then you should consider calling in a professional. An annual HVAC inspection will leave you with the peace of mind that you have done all that is in your power to reduce high heating bills.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Call_Us_Today_to_Learn_More_About_Reducing_High_Heating_Bills\"><\/span>Call Us Today to Learn More About Reducing High Heating Bills<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Galmiche &amp; Sons are your St. Louis area HVAC experts.
