3. Turn the thermostat down before you leave
Do you have to go out? Then turn the thermostat down an hour before departure. It won’t cool down much during that time, because the heat will linger in the room for a while. This saves you about 20 bucks per year. Are you away from home all day? That’s when you’ll really see the difference on your bill if you choose to keep the heating turned all the way down.
