Tips on Saving Electricity and Lowering Your Electricity Bill

Change furnace filter: Save up to $60 a year


New filter
Label filters with the month they'll be used, to help you remember to change them.
Keeping your furnace (gas or electric) tuned up has two big benefits: It makes the furnace run efficiently and it prolongs the furnace’s life span. And you can perform the annual tune-up yourself in about three hours.
Change the filter every month of the heating season (or year-round if the filter is also used for A/C). Be sure you insert the new one so it faces the right way. The filter protects the blower and its motor; a clogged filter makes the motor work harder and use more power.
