A third set of tips come under “Thermostat Settings” where you can save 1% to 3% on heating costs.

Some of the tips being suggested under this category:

  • Invest in an air conditioner that has a high energy efficiency rating which is printed on the EnergyGuide label.
  • Cleaning out leaves and debris from your air conditioning unit.
