This winter, the following energy saving

tips can help you save money on your

monthly energy bill while staying

comfortable in your home.

• Set your thermostat no higher than

68 degrees when you are home and

lower the temperature when you go

to bed or when you are not at home.

For every additional degree you lower

your thermostat you save about 2

percent off your heating bill.

• Cut annual heating bills by as much as 10 percent a year by turning

your thermostat back 10 to 15 percent for eight hours a day.

• Reducing air leaks could cut 10 percent from your household’s

monthly energy bill. The most common places where air escapes

a home are floors, walls, ceilings, ducts, fireplaces, plumbing

penetrations, doors, windows, fans, vents and electrical outlets.

• Keep shades and curtains open during the day on the south side of

your home to allow solar heating. Close them at night to retain heat.

• Don’t block your radiators or heating vents with furniture or draperies.

Close vents and doors in unused rooms.

• Place a sheet of aluminum foil between the radiator and the wall to

reflect heat back into the room.

Visit the ‘Save Money & Energy’ section of Eversource.com for more

information about our great energy efficiency programs and other energy

saving tips.

Save Energy & Stay Comfortable With These Energy Saving Tips

Eversource wants you and your family to

stay safe this winter season.

Whether you heat your home with oil,

natural gas, coal or wood, please keep the

following important safety tips in mind:

• Reduce the risk of carbon monoxide

poisoning by having your heating

equipment “tuned up” each year.

• Make sure any vents on the outside

of your home are completely

unobstructed and able to properly

ventilate - especially after a snow

storm.

• Turn off space heaters when you

leave a room or plan to sleep. Also,

keep them at least three feet from

flammable objects.

• Never plug a space heater into an

extension cord, and make sure the

power cord on your space heater isn’t

damaged or frayed.

Visit the ‘Safety’ section of Eversource.com for more important safety tips.
