Comfort Maximized From New Plants to Furnace Service

December 11, 2015

The days are starting to get shorter and colder and it is hard to keep your home comfortable and warm. We’ve got a collection of tips that can help beyond completing annual furnace service. These tips will boost the comfort your furnace provides.

Here are four tips for staying cozy this winter in Eastland:

  • Seal air leaks. A lot of warm air escapes your home through small cracks around your windows and doors. This can be a costly problem when you look at your utility bill. Fortunately, it’s not costly to fix it. Most times, new weatherstripping or caulking is all it takes.
  • Change your furnace filter. •This is crucial to improving your furnace’s efficiency, and therefore saving money. The best part is that it’s incredibly easy to do yourself. Check your filter regularly and change it when the manufacturer recommends it.
  • Get plants. Houseplants are great because they look nice, and they can actually boost your indoor air quality. Many common houseplants will absorb some of the airborne toxins that are released from ordinary household cleaners, paints and other products.
  • Furnace service. You should arrange regular furnace service annually. This will ensure your furnace is working correctly, and if it’s not, find problem areas before they get worse.
