The Bedroom

Part of a good night's sleep depends on a comfortable bedroom. You can still get all the comfort you want and cut back with these tips.

  • Use draft guards at the bottom of any doors that open into unconditioned areas.
  • Use ceiling fans for cooling.
  • Close heating vents or radiators in rooms you don't use. However, if you have a heat pump system, leave all doors and vents open to ensure proper airflow.
  • Lower your thermostat at night and use more blankets in winter. However, if you have a heat pump system, you'll save more on energy costs if you keep the thermostat on a comfortable setting day and night. Or consider a programmable thermostat.
