Warming your house while keeping your energy bill down
COLUMBIA BASIN — Winter is here and there are several things residents can do to lower their heating bill and keep themselves and their homes safe, all while staying toasty warm in the cold weather. “If (residents) have a central system, mini splits, or even those things on the wall, they get lint and everything in (the filter) so you want to check those,” said Ramon Garcia Jr., service technician for Home Electrical Services in Moses Lake. Garcia said one of the most important things that residents can do is to check the filter on their heating system. He said residents should check it every month if possible for dirt and dust buildup regardless of how long the filter is expected to last.
