In the cold days ahead, you might be looking for ways to save on your energy bill or to help warm your home.

 

Tip #1 - Leave curtains and blinds open on the sunny side of your home and closed on the cloudy side. This allows the sun to heat the inside of your home. On gloomy days keep the curtains and blinds closed to keep heat from escaping.

 

Tip #2 - Cook at home using the oven more often to help heat your home. This saves on eating out and can help keep your home warmer when temperatures are dropping.
