Adjust your heating temperature by 1°C and save.

By using a programmable thermostat for your heating and cooling, you can keep your home comfortable while saving energy and money. For even more savings when heating your home, consider adjusting the temperature down slightly as a 1% increase can add up to 10% of the energy use. The smaller the difference between the ambient temperature and the desired temperature means your heating doesn't have to work as hard resulting in energy savings.

Wearing an extra layer of clothing during the day or swapping your quilt for a heavier weight when you sleep can ensure you remain comfortable while slightly reducing the temperature of your heating and conserving energy.
