Here's what NOT to do this winter while trying to keep your home warm:
Running small space heaters around your house is one of the least effective and most expensive ways to heat your home. According to Lyon Coffey Electric Coop, a single 600-watt space heater could cost you more than $60 a month to run, while a 1500 watt heater could rack up more than $150 a month.
This method would end up costing more and it would not work as efficiently as a new furnace! Avoid this—call the pros at (260) 422-3534.
It has been 30 days since we last reminded you about changing your furnace filter—here's your monthly reminder to check it and change it if needed!
This can help you and your home in several ways:
✅ Dirty air filters are not good for your health
✅ Changing your filter will help extend your furnace's lifespan
✅ This helps keep energy costs down
If your furnace is more than 15 years old, it might be time to schedule a replacement with Poormans.
With Trane's one-stage, two-stage and modulating furnaces, our team can help identify the best product for your home to keep you warm and comfortable these winter months.
Give us a call if you have questions or want to schedule a consultation.
