Most folks tend to set their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/furnaces.html\">furnaces<\/a> and forget them. However, this can unexpectedly drive up your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/heating-mistakes-costing-big-on-heating-bills\/\">heating bills<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Some common home heating mistakes are easy to make, but luckily, they are also easy to fix. Take the extra time to avoid these errors and you will be doing your bills and your HVAC system a favor. These are our 4 most common home heating mistakes to avoid:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Cranking the Thermostat<\/strong> &#8211; This is an easy one to do when the cold wind is howling outside! It might seem like ratcheting up the temperature will make your home warm up faster, but it won&rsquo;t. Your furnace will run longer than it needs to, which means your bills will rise.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Ignoring Drafts<\/strong> &#8211; Gaps around your doors or windows leach heat from inside your home. This means your house is colder and your heating costs go up. Make sure to seal up any of the gaps. Be sure to double check basements and attics, too!<\/li>\n<li><strong>Using a Dirty Air Filter<\/strong> \u2013 Forgetting to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/when-you-dont-change-your-air-filter\/\">change your air filter<\/a> is a very common mistake. A dirty air filter makes your furnace work much harder than it needs to. This creates needless wear and tear and could potentially lead to breakage.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Closing Off Vents<\/strong> &#8211; It may seem like closing the vents in an empty room would save you on heating costs, but it is actually the opposite. Your heater is designed to evenly heat your entire home. Closed off vents disrupt the flow of your heater, adding stress to your components.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Be_Sure_You_are_Getting_Regular_Furnace_Maintenance\"><\/span>Be Sure You are Getting Regular Furnace Maintenance<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\/home-heating-mistakes-2-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"Home Heating Mistakes\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-9111\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/home-heating-mistakes-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/home-heating-mistakes-2.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>In addition to the above tips, a key aspect of a healthy home heating system is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.galmicheandsons.com\/hvac-blog\/why-regular-furnace-maintenance-is-important\/\">regular furnace maintenance<\/a>.
