Key Questions Answered

• •Energy efficiency financing: Zero percent state loans for insulation and heating system upgrades can pay for themselves immediately, with monthly loan payments lower than the energy savings generated from the improvements.
• •Programmable thermostats and layering: Setting thermostats to mid-sixties during day and lower at night, combined with warm clothing indoors, maintains comfort while significantly reducing heating costs without feeling cold.
• •Heating zone management: Close bedroom doors and hang drapes in hallways to isolate unused spaces, forcing radiators to heat only occupied rooms rather than wasting energy on several hundred square feet of hallway.
