Brr… the days are finally starting to get chilly! If you are cranking the heat in your home, you are sure to see a spike in your heating bill. While you cannot bear to turn off the heat, what you CAN do is find ways to save on your bill. As your reliable insurance agency, we usually have tips to offer about lowering your NJ homeowners insurance, but this week we have a few to offer when it comes to lowering your heat and energy bill!

Here are a few ways to warm up inexpensively:

•    Start by insulating your attic and other areas that may bring cold into your home.

•    Make sure all windows and doors are sealed up. Any cracks will let a draft in.

•    Purchase a space heater to use instead of cranking the heat.

•    Put your fireplace to good use! It can really add a few degrees to your home.

•    Electric blankets are really popular these days. Turn it on during those chilly nights on the couch.

•    Open your windows during the day to let the sunlight in.

•    Invest in heavier curtains that help keep cold out during the night.

As you can see, there are always ways to heat up your home without cranking up your heating and electric bill.
