Here at Galmiche and Sons, we believe an educated customer will be better equipped to make decisions about their heating usage that will save them money. So, read on to learn more.<\/p>\n<p>Here are some common reasons why your heating bill may be so high:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Insulation Issues <\/strong>&#8211; When a customer calls us and wants to know why their heating bill is so high, one of the most common causes is due to poor insulation. This happens frequently with older homes and causes the heat generated by your furnace to be leached out of your house. This means your furnace will be working doubly hard to keep your home at your required temperature, which results in high heating costs.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Low Efficiency Furnaces <\/strong>&#8211; Another very common reason for inflated heating costs is an inefficient furnace. Older model furnaces, or neglected modern ones, must use extra energy to get the job done. You will notice this as a spike on your heating bill. Getting regular maintenance done can often help this issue.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Change of Seasons <\/strong>&#8211; One thing that can&rsquo;t be helped is the shift from warmer months to colder ones. During early cold snaps, people often turn their heat up more than they need to because they are not used to the cold. If you&rsquo;re thinking: &ldquo;why is the heating bill so high?&rdquo;, have a look at your thermostat. A few degrees adjustment can make a big difference.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Running the Dryer <\/strong>&#8211; This is an often-overlooked culprit for high energy bills. Many people wear extra layers during colder months or use multiple comforters and blankets. This means that there is a laundry increase and running the dryer frequently hikes up energy costs.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Solutions_for_Increased_Heating_Bills\"><\/span>Solutions for Increased Heating Bills<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>When you are faced with the question: &ldquo;Why is my heating bill so high?&rdquo;, it can be easy to be frustrated.
