Retain Heat During Winter
While bumping up the thermostat is one way to warm your home in the winter, doing so can cause excessive energy use that leads to higher heating bills. Try alternative strategies that help you save on energy costs, from simple lifestyle changes to smart home upgrades.

Open the Insulation Contractor on sunnier days to let the warmth of the sun in, and remember to close them once the sun sets. You could also purchase insulated curtain liners that will act as an extra layer of insulation, minimising heat loss from windows.

If your ceiling fan has a clockwise setting, use it to circulate the warm air from your living room up into your rooms. This can help you reduce your thermostat by a degree or two.

Invest in thick or flannel pyjamas to keep you warm at night. Fleece or flannel bed socks are also very effective at keeping feet toasty. Alternatively, opt for an electric or weighted blanket, which is far cheaper to run than a heater and will provide a constant source of warmth.

No More Uneven Temperatures: Fix Hot and Cold Spots with Insulation

Consider a programmable thermostat that will optimise your heating schedule based on the day and time of year. Some even come with smart features, so you can program them to learn your habits and optimize heating schedules automatically. If you’re having trouble affording your heating costs, you may be eligible for some support from your energy supplier. For example, the Warm Home Discount scheme is available to those receiving benefits or who have a low income. Contact your energy supplier to find out more information.
