Below are 3 of the most common home heating myths and why you should avoid subscribing to them altogether.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Myth_1_All_New_Homes_Are_Energy_Efficient\"><\/span>Myth 1: All New Homes Are Energy Efficient<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>A common home heating myth is that new homes are energy efficient. Homeowners usually assume that the construction of modern homes is done with energy efficiency in mind. However, this is not always the case. Homes will be constructed to comply with the guidelines of the Construction Code, which do not necessarily meet energy efficiency requirements. In fact, most new homes are more susceptible to air problems, which in turn lead to higher utility bills. Regardless of the age of the house, it is important to have a thorough <a href=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/home-energy-audits-translate-energy-savings\/\">home energy audit<\/a> and regular <a href=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/service-request.php\">HVAC maintenance<\/a> to ensure that energy performance is in check.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Myth_2_To_Heat_the_Home_Faster_You_Should_Set_a_Higher_Thermostat_Setting\"><\/span>Myth 2: To Heat the Home Faster, You Should Set a Higher Thermostat Setting<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/heating-myths-busted-2-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"Common Home Heating Myths\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-4624\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/heating-myths-busted-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/heating-myths-busted-2.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Setting the thermostat to a higher setting to warm it up more quickly is another home heating myth. Some homeowners believe that this will ensure that the house heats up much faster. However, what happens is that the system works past its normal capacity, making the house too hot. To maintain indoor comfort, set the thermostat to a need-based temperature and save money while you are at it.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Myth_3_Space_Heaters_Are_More_Cost-Efficient_Than_Gas_Heaters\"><\/span>Myth 3: Space Heaters Are More Cost-Efficient Than Gas Heaters<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Another common home heating myth is that by using space heaters instead of the gas heating system, you can save on costs. This is not entirely true. Space heaters use electricity to run, often resulting in higher operating costs, and depending on how often you use them in your home, your utility bills could go over the top. However, if you use space heaters properly to provide supplemental heat, for example just to heat a smaller space that may not stay as warm or that you want extra warm, then this can be a great option.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Contact_Us_for_More_Home_Heating_Myths\"><\/span>Contact Us for More Home Heating Myths<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>There are many other home heating myths that homeowners believe in.
