    Brrr, the cold is around the corner. In fact, in the short term, we will need to heat our home. Of course, it would be better to stay under the covers sipping hot tea, perhaps the most ecological way to warm up. But how to go about save on your gas bill, which with the arrival of winter splashes mercilessly?





    The Hera group has provided some tips on how to do this and will send them in a brochure to the homes of all its customers. We bring them back to you in our own way. And here are the 8 tips for cut gas consumption in the winter months.

    1) Never exceed 20 degrees inside the house. If you prefer tropical climates, go to the tropics but don't try to reproduce a summer setting in your home in the middle of winter. The internal temperature in fact, as a good rule, must not be higher than 20 degrees, lowering it further during the night or turning off the radiators or any other devices as soon as the outside temperatures are milder. According to Hera, in fact, reducing the temperature in domestic environments by just one degree leads to a saving on the bill of 6%.

    2) Do not cover the radiators to let the heat pass better. Socks, towels, or pajamas before bed to find it warmer? Let's forget it. The radiators must remain free from any object that could decrease their efficiency.

    3) Only heat the rooms used. Why heat everything if we are alone at home? Just keep the rooms we live in warm. For this purpose it is useful to apply thermostatic valves to each radiator.

    4) I have to change the boiler. What to do? It is advisable to prefer condensing ones with modulating burner, which are able to guarantee maximum efficiency in any operating condition.

    5) How to save with central heating? As often happens in condominiums, the heating is centralized. Imagine how many families and how many people spend their days out, with no small waste. For this reason, it would be useful to have individual heat metering devices and thermostatic valves, able to independently regulate the heating, dividing the condominium costs on the actual uses and not on the thousandths, and allowing not to waste and to pay only what is actually consumed.



    6) Efficiency equals savings. To increase the efficiency of the radiators, the advice is to replace the old convectors with heat radiators.

    7) Shutters and shutters down. In this way, your home is better insulated, with less energy needed to heat the rooms.

    8) Save energy and gas even in the shop. If you are the owner of a commercial activity, there are small tricks to save electricity, such as the use of timer clocks to turn off or reduce the light intensity when it is not needed, and for better heating the use of pumps. of high efficiency heat.



    “Consuming less is a duty and an opportunity: it's good for the environment and for your wallet,” he said Cristian Fabbri, Chief Executive Officer of Hera Comm. Winter is coming, let's keep these tips in mind if we want to find a little more in our pocket while respecting the environment.
