\"Fall<\/p>\n

Finally, cooler fall temperatures have arrived in the Valley of the Sun. Welcome relief from the punishing, summer triple digit heat bringing opportunities for plenty of fun, outdoor activities. October can also bring downright chilly early morning and evening temperatures. With the change in season from summer to fall, it\u2019s a great time to take a few moments to reset your programmable thermostat. This will ensure you\u2019re optimizing your home\u2019s HVAC system for both heating comfort and cost.<\/p>\n

At Home Morning, Noon, and Night<\/h2>\n

Setting your thermostat at 68 degrees when you wake up in the morning or when you\u2019re working from home is energy efficient. You\u2019ll feel pleasantly warm without raising your monthly heating bills to excessive levels. Consider the best hours when this temperature setting is most appropriate according to your family\u2019s typical weekday and weekend schedules.<\/p>\n

When you\u2019re sleeping, you probably will not notice a slight drop in temperature. Even if you\u2019re sensitive to colder indoor temperatures, an extra blanket, a heated blanket, or a cozy comforter on the bed is usually enough to maintain warmth without dialing up the heat. Consider lowering your thermostat setting by five degrees or more for the eight or more hours that you\u2019re in bed asleep.<\/p>\n

Leaving Home<\/h2>\n

Did you know that you can save up to 15 percent on your monthly heating bills by lowering your thermostat setting by 10 degrees for at least eight hours each day? If your family schedules are relatively consistent, you can set your thermostat to increase your home\u2019s indoor temperature 15 to 20 minutes before you arrive home. Reducing your house\u2019s indoor temperature while you\u2019re away on vacation will save energy, too. You probably won\u2019t notice the temperature difference in your home, but you sure will on your monthly electricity bills.<\/p>\n
