It’s Time To Make Sure That Furnace Is Ready For Another Season

(Undated)– Colder weather in the forecast next week means many of us will likely be starting our furnaces for the first time of the season, if you haven’t already. Officials with Black Hills Energy say there are a few things we should do to get ready. They include having your heating system checked by a professional along with checking air filters and clearing out dust. As far as saving energy and keeping your utility bill down, they recommend lowering your thermostat and installing a smart or programmable thermostat, along with weather stripping and caulking around doors and windows.
