Heating costs are continuing to rise, and it’s having a big impact on household expenditure. Whilst in many ways, rising heating bills are simply unavoidable at the present time, there are still a few things that every homeowner can do to help make whatever savings are possible. Here at Ecowarm, our team has written a helpful post that gives you a few important tips to reduce your electric heating costs.

Using Smart Controls
A great way to make some savings on your heating is to control your heating from your smartphone. At Ecowarm, our systems can be controlled via a mobile app over Wifi – enabling you to set and change your temperature whenever and wherever you are. You will be able to efficiently know how much heating you’re using, as well as the temperature you’ve got in different rooms. All in all, having more control of your heating – on your smartphone – will make it more effective for you to keep your costs down.
Maintain a Constant Temperature
It is generally recommended that you maintain an average temperature of around 21 degrees in your home. This is to help achieve a good balance between consumption and a pleasant temperature in your space. If you are still feeling cold at home, then you can try to implement one of those classic tips – putting on more clothes or having a blanket – as opposed to turning the temperature up.
Do Not Cover Radiators
Although this is something that many people naturally do – for instance, putting wet clothes on the top of the radiator – this can actually have a negative effect on heating. It is advised that you do not put clothes on your heating system, as doing so will block heat circulation. We recommend that you position a clothes line near to the system; this is a much more efficient way to do it.
Ventilate Just as Much as Necessary
Finally, we recommend that you only ventilate as much as you really need to. If you ventilate too much, this can result in a huge loss of temperature in your home. The top tip that we can give you is to not keep your windows open for more than 10 minutes. Any longer than this and it will keep your house cool and reduce the warmth generated by your heating system. It will also be a major waste of money. So, make sure that you check your windows when you’re heading out and keep them closed – this will maintain a good temperature throughout your property.
