Your heat is on but you don't feel like it is? Thought this may seem silly, check to make sure your vents are open. Also check the filters. They may need changing! Your vents also use air filters to keep dirt, dust, and other unwanted crap from blowing throughout your home. Those filters should be replaced monthly or they'll prevent ideal airflow. You can pick up a bulk pack at your local hardware store for $1-2 per filter. Just be sure to measure the size of your vents before you go so you get the right ones.

A dirty filter makes your furnace/heat pump work harder, and leads to super scary numbers on your heating bill. Aim to swap yours out once a month.

Use this printable home maintenance checklist to stay on to of all of those important maintenance tasks.

Question...... Do you utilize the sun for free heat? That bright orb in the sky should be the focus of temperature control in your residence throughout the year. Open the curtains on your south-facing windows during winter days to bring free heat into your home. Close your window coverings when the sun goes down to keep the heat inside.
