# Tips To Maintaining High Efficiency Equipment

****Learn some tips to ensure that your high efficiency heating system is properly maintained! Proper maintenance helps keep your system running efficiently.****

 

**Tune up your equipment:** regular maintenance by a qualified technician can help to ensure that your water heater or boiler is operating properly and can help prevent future problems.

**Programmable Thermostat:** Program lower temperatures at night or during the hours when no one is home to help reduce heating bills. A pre-programmed thermostat can save about $180 every year in heating costs.

**Insulation:** No matter how efficient your home heating system is your system will have to work harder if your home is not properly insulated. Good insulation can save up to 20 percent extra on your heating and cooling costs.
