Tips To Cut Heating Cost


Local heating companies are advising people to start saving their pennies because Syracuse is going to see steep jump in the cost of heating oil this winter. An explosion in oil prices may put home owners over the barrel because high gas prices have turned up the cost of residential heating. Natural gas is up fifteen percent and propane and fuel are up about sixty percent.


Ellis Guiles, Director of Sales at TAG Mechanical http://www.tagmechanical.com/ on the north side of Syracuse recommends people maintain yearly maintenance for their furnaces and install thermostats that will automatically adjust temperatures.

“Every one degree change in temperature during the night will help you save about one to two percent on your utility bills over the course of the winter” Guiles says.


Turnig the heat down when you leave your home or while you're sleeping will help lower your bills.
