Avoid making these mistakes and you will notice the savings on your monthly heating bills.<\/p>\n<p>Here are our top 5 biggest heating mistakes:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Unfilled Gaps<\/strong> &#8211; Gaps and cracks in doors and windows allow icy cold air to make its way into your home. This makes your furnace work extra hard to heat your home. Fill those gaps with weather stripping or sealants.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Shut Doors and Vents<\/strong> &#8211; People often close off doors and vents to unused areas of their house. While this may seem like a good way to save on energy, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/improve-heating-energy-efficiency\/\">closing off vents<\/a> actually negatively impacts your heating bills. Obstructed air flow puts undue pressure on your HVAC system.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Bad Timing<\/strong> &#8211; Running your heating at full blast all day long is not only costly, but it adds extra wear and tear on your system. Get a programmable thermostat and set a schedule that uses less heat when people are sleeping or are not home. This can see you save up to 10% on your energy bills.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Extra Heat Sources<\/strong> &#8211; Relying on things such as space heaters and or fan warmers to heat your home can get very expensive. They are far less efficient than your heating system, so do not think you will save money by not turning on the heat. Use these devices in coordination with your furnace to maximize warmth.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Ratcheting Up the Heat<\/strong> &#8211; Furnaces only work at one speed, so turning up the heat to a high temp will not heat your home any faster. But, it will cost you more. Doing this makes your heater work harder than necessary to warm your home.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Let_Us_Help_You_Reduce_Your_Heating_Bills_Costs\"><\/span>Let Us Help You Reduce Your Heating Bills &amp; Costs<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-mistakes-costing-big-heating-bills-2-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"Heating Mistakes Rising Your Heating Bills\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-8318\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/heating-mistakes-costing-big-heating-bills-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/heating-mistakes-costing-big-heating-bills-2.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>At Galmiche &amp; Sons, we have been in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/residential-heating-cooling.html\">heating and cooling<\/a> industry since 1950, so we know how to save money.
